Duet 2 Wifi Nozzle heater not stable

[T3P3Tony]

@kenbigt I assume your M307 command for that heater outputs the result of the M303 (i.e. you have confirmed its applied?)

Try increasing the "D" parameter that the autotuning came to by 50%.

the temperature shot up to 210 then dropped to 197.5 this is a big part of the problem i print stuff at 230 -235 and if i let this continue i will melt my heater

Yes that's the right D value. However, initial overshoot usually means that the gain value A is set too low. That can happen if you tuned the heater with the part cooling fan turned on, but you heat up with it turned off, especially if you don't have a silicone sock over the heater block.

If the hot end temperature oscillates when the printer is idle, increase D. If the temperature is slow to recover from deviations caused by outside influences, reduce D.

@dc42 so i have to stop my cooling fan to do the calibration is that correct

[kenbigt]

@kenbigt sorry just want to be 100% understanding do you want me to turn of the cooling fan that stops heat creep i do not have the part cooling fan on just the fan that comes on and of with the nozzle heating up

[T3P3Tony]

@kenbigt no, you should do the calibration with both the part cooling fan and the extruder heater cooling fan running - so that you don't get errors when they come on during a print.

I have spotted in another post that the 40watt Heater that comes with the Anycubic Predator is to powerfull for the Duet 2 wifi setup is this true and if so what would you recommend as a setup

[T3P3Tony]

@kenbigt its not too powerful for the Duet - its just capable of getting very hot. Depending on how you use your printer and what you view of failing safe(r) is depends on if this is a probelm. many people use 40W heaters in aluminium blocks - if the heater is on full power and not controlled then it can get very hot.
