Too much extruder cooling

stavrosgmtl

Hi,

So I shorted the extruder fan and replaced it, also when installing anything I put arctic silver on the heat sink threads.
And now I get faults reaching temperature for a print. I need to set it 10c higher wait till it gets there , start the print, and then it's fine..
Or i override the fan settings to like 20%..
Is there anyway to tweak the warm up setting?

Cheers
Stav

You can do a PID tuning on the hotend.

Hi,

Ran

M303 H1 S240 P1

then

M307 H1
Heater 1 model: gain 353.2, time constant 177.5, dead time 4.4, max PWM 1.00, mode: PID

Added this to config.g

M307 H1 A188.4, C121.7, D4.4 S1

Still having problems, did I miss something?

Why did you add those number to M307 in config.g instead of the result of the auto tune?

I Did wonder that as well

stavrosgmtl

oops. Pasted wrong one.

I really added ;

M307 H1 A353.2, C177.5, D4.4 S1

deckingman

OK. That makes more sense.

Are you using config-overide.g by any chance? What I mean is that if you have previously tuned the heater then entered M500, those values will have been stored in config-overide.g so if you now enter the numbers in config.g using M307, they will still be overridden by whatever is in config-override.g.

stavrosgmtl

Sounds extremely possible, checking…

M500 and config-overide.g save the day, now i get what's going on, tune worked pefectly.

Thanks again

Glad you got it fixed. Personally I don't use config-overide.g for exactly the reason that you have discovered. I prefer to just have the one config.g file.
