wouldn't it make sense to remove the daughterboards?

No, then you would have to remove the PT100s as well and replace them with thermistors.

The coding part isn't very difficult, really. The only thing that needs to change is the M308 lines that describe the sensor setup to the firmware. Right now it's telling it it's a thermistor.

It would help to know exactly which sensor is connected where. I can't quite tell from your photo, but it looks like you have a resistor and a pair of wires connected to the bottom board, and 4 wires connected to one of the top. Can you verify what is connected where?

If nothing has physically changed hardware wise from when your previous config was used we can infer that channels X200, X202 and X203 were in use.

See if this section works

Unfortunately not much of a difference

H1 T0 is linked to with 2 cables to E0Temp
H2 T1 is linked to the bottom board with a resistor
H3 T2 is linked with 4 wires connected to one of the top
H4 T3 is linked with 2 cables to E5Temp

I will be away from my printer for I guess a week now...

@MIke-1 you response is confusing me, it looks like you have thermistors in your original confit but PT100 boards installed, one of the PT100 board has a resistor in it as a reference.

Please can you confirm which wire goes to what hotend and where its currently plugged in for all of the temperature sensors (except the bed as that looks like its working). Once you have that. measure the resistance across the sensors to see if they are 100K (thermistors) or 100R (PT100).

Mike 1

@T3P3Tony

Hello Tony,

I feel lost.

I think you can trust this:

H1 T0 is linked to with 2 cables to E0Temp 9,4kOhm
H2 T1 is linked to the bottom board with the resistor 108Ohm
H3 T2 is linked with 4 wires connected to one of the top 150kOhm
H4 T3 is linked with 2 cables to E5Temp 9,4kOhm

The setup worked before the firmware update with all sensors except T2

But I have no idea why some tools switched from active in inactive an back. I just does not make sense to me.

I think it would be the best to get access to the first tool for the very beginning.

I need a reference point for the first tool.

I tried these things to see at least a reaction on the first tool.

M308 S1 P"duex.e1temp" Y"thermistor" T100000 B4138
;M308 S1 P"temp0" Y"rtd-max31865"
;M308 S1 P"spi.cs0" Y"rtd-max31865" ; create sensor number 1 as a PT100 sensor in the first position on the Duet 2 daughterboard connector

But I think I might have messed up some numbers.

config.g

T3P3Tony

@MIke-1 i agree lats sort the first tool out.

If its on e0temp then you need to use P"e0temp" in the M308 try that.

Do you have any information about the thermistor in T0 - 9.4Kohm is strange for an extruder, 94Kohm otoh would be in the right ball park.

Mike 1

@T3P3Tony

P"e0temp" did not help the heater ist n/a

I think the resistance is not a big issue because this here worked:
M305 S"T0" P1 T100000 B4138 C0

T3P3Tony

@MIke-1 I checked your wiring image again, posting here to make it easier to reference:
https://forum.duet3d.com/assets/uploads/files/1677954007806-87d3ed42-0e46-4a99-b7dd-e0b7291af44d.jpg

And it does look like you have something plugged into e0temp so something else is failing please send M98 Pconfig.g from the console and see what errors you get back.

T3P3Tony

@MIke-1 now we are getting somewhere. We need to fix those errors.

Error: Unknown pin name 'duex.e1heat'

if you look in the documentation here:
https://docs.duet3d.com/Duet3D_hardware/Duet_2_family/Duet_2_WiFi_Ethernet_Hardware_Overview#pin-names

you will not find "duex.e1heat" the e1heat connector is on the duet 2 mainboard so change that to "e1heat" without the duex and then restart and run M98 Pconfig.g again

you will hopefully see that first error disappear and then probably the next two which relate to heater 1 not being setup correctly.

Next error, these three lines:
Error: Sensor 4 does not exist
Error: Bad command: mp"" Y"thermistor" T100000 B4138
Error: in file macro line 108: M308: missing parameter 'S'

This line is possibly the culprit
M308 S4 P"duex.e5temp" Y"thermistor" T100000 B4138

try the following in its place

M308 S1 P"e5temp" Y"thermistor" T100000 B4138

Once again save, run M98 Pconfig.g and lets see if thats fixed some more of the issues.

Using the same process have a a go fixing the other errors.

sorry my cut and paste mistake. it should have been

to replace this line

if S4 is actually connected to e3temp rather than e5temp then adjust the line accordingly.

Thanks a lot!!!

T3P3Tony

@MIke-1 that yellow and blue cable looks like its wired to a PT100 because its 4 wires not 2. but that aside, there is a fault in the config.g that it preventing the sensor from being created. looking at it with fresh eyes i think i spot the issue, there is another M308 in there which should be a M950

please replace this:

; Heater4

M307 H4 B0 S1.00 ; disable bang-bang mode for heater and set PWM limit
M143 H4 S280 ; set temperature limit for heater 4 to 280C

with this

; Heater4

M308 S4 P"e3temp" Y"thermistor" T100000 B4138
M950 H4 C"duex.e3heat" T4 it to sensor 4
M307 H4 B0 S1.00 ; disable bang-bang mode for heater and set PWM limit
M143 H4 S280 ; set temperature limit for heater 4 to 280C

I don't necessarily think we will get a correct temperature reading but we should get a configuration that stops failing at that point.

Also please update this table:

H1 T0 is linked to with 2 cables to E0Temp 9,4kOhm
H2 T1 is linked to the bottom board with the resistor 108Ohm
H3 T2 is linked with 4 wires connected to one of the top 150kOhm
H4 T3 is linked with 2 cables to E5Temp 9,4kOhm

because it looks like at least H4 is using S4 and is using a 4 wire sensor.

Yes if it's a normal thermistor it needs to be connected to the board itself on a temperature input and not the PT100 daughterboard.

Then you'd need commands similar to these depending on what pin you use and what values are needed for the thermistor.

M308 S4 P"e3temp" Y"thermistor" T100000 B4725 C7.06e-8
M950 H4 C"duex.e3heat" T4 it to sensor 4

This is just an example though.

Can you post your config.g as it currently is now?
