When using 2 Daughter Boards on the Duet Wifi, are they Sensors
S-0 S-1 S-2 S-3 or S-1 S-2 S-3 S-4 ?Thank you

@Sculpt-Fabricator Do you mean temperature daughterboards, connected to the TEMP_DB connector? And you're using M308 to configure them? If so, the S parameter can be anything, though it's easiest to make them consecutive. However, the pin that refers to each thermocouple or PT100 is set, and needs to be in the range spi.cs1 to spi.cs4 for Duet 2 WiFi. eg if you have two thermocouple daughterboards, for up to four thermocouples, you could configure them with:
M308 S1 P"spi.cs1" Y"thermocouple-max31856" M308 S3 P"spi.cs2" Y"thermocouple-max31856" M308 S5 P"spi.cs3" Y"thermocouple-max31856" M308 S7 P"spi.cs4" Y"thermocouple-max31856"
The S parameter is just giving the sensor a reference number, but the pin name is the specific pin each thermocouple connects to.
