H1 giving erratic reads while printing.

[pao_wikhan]

i already replaced the pt100 but from old to new its the same.
after printing 2 big parts its now like that, and i already did tuning (down to P0.4) and test printing but same output.
im not sure what caused it to be like that. Kindly advise.

can it be a heater problem?

[T3P3Tony]

Does the noise on the graph only start when the printer starts moving/extruding? If so it looks like noise from your stepper motors as a potential cause. look at your wire routing to avoid routing the wires in a bundle with stepper wires.

[dc42]

Your oscillating hot end temperature suggests that heater tuning hasn't worked very well. Try increasing the D parameter in the M307 command for heater 1 by 20% to 50%.

The sharp downward excursions suggest a possible short in the wiring, or perhaps static discharge. Try grounding the hot end metalwork.

[pao_wikhan]

will try it, currently retuning.

[pao_wikhan]

tried the D to 20-50% same thing..will rewire as i think there is probably a bad grounding.

[pao_wikhan]

seems like it was heavily grounded. not sure why still..
but i added a grounding on the hotend heatsink then loosen up the cable ties.
seems to be the same. managed to have the temp to be stable before print but while printing the erratic temps starts to act up.

not sure if the psu as when it acts up when the motors move.

[pao_wikhan]

replaced the heater cause i think its busted.
M563 P0 D0 H2

still seeing the wobbling, checking the image i think my psu is not giving the current it needs?

[dc42]

Do the hot end temperature oscillations stop if you turn the bed heater off?

[pao_wikhan]

seems like the oscillations start at 200degrees, brought the bed down and still the same.

[dc42]

Looks like you changed from using heater 1 output to heater 2. Did you run auto tuning on heater 2, with a target temperature around 200C or a little higher?

What type of hot end do you have, and what are your M307 parameters for heater 2? Send M307 H2 to report them.

[pao_wikhan]

@dc42 said in H1 giving erratic reads while printing.:

M307 H2

tuned to 260, should i tune to a little lower value?

M307 H2
Heater 2 model: gain 347.5, time constant 196.2, dead time 6.2, max PWM 0.50, calibration voltage 24.1, mode PID, inverted no, frequency default
Computed PID parameters for setpoint change: P16.2, I0.462, D70.5
Computed PID parameters for load change: P16.

[dc42]

260C should be Ok for tuning. But why have you set a PWM limit of 0.5?

[pao_wikhan]

@dc42
it gives the overpowered error during tuning.
im using a 24V 50W heater

Ahhh. That's most likely the root cause of the problem. I once tried to "tame" an overpowered heater and never did have much success in reducing the oscillations. The solution for me was to use a more appropriately sized heater cartridge.

[pao_wikhan]

@deckingman

i think my issue is more than that..while printing it gives out erratic values from 210 down to 160-140, stopping the print

I'd say, looking at the graph you posted, that you have two issues. The general +/- 2 to5 deg or so oscillation is likely just the heater being too powerful. The rapid drops in temperature can't be "real". That is to say, the temperature can't really drop by 50 degrees in such short a time unless you actually remove the hot end and drop it into dry ice or some such So that must be a wiring issue or electrical noise.

[pao_wikhan]

thats the thing. it was working for the past few month, didnt touch anything print print print. now this giving me that erratic motion is weird. so i replaced the sensor same output, and did the stuff recommended here.
just finished rewiring really, so im testing.

[pao_wikhan]

@deckingman
rewiring is the same..oscillations..will try using e3d generic 24v 30W heater..then tune to max P1

[pao_wikhan]

Thanks @dc42 @deckingman @T3P3Tony
i fixed it, seems like the thermistor is getting pulled and something was shorting the 5v rail. still using the new cartridge and ntc sensor (the pt100 was giving 2000degrees, but rtc1 is working when i place a 100ohm resistor) will troubleshoot that in a new chapter.
oh and a new psu too, seems like the psu was heavily grounded.
