PT-100 temperature constantly at 2000 degrees after failure
-
No i don't have a resistor around but i think this won't make a difference. Since the Ultimaker Original has a measurable resitance of around 100ohms. It measures like in the image below (the green connection has around 110 ohms):
It seems to me that the issue is with the daughter board or the duet itself.
-
Do you have anything else connected to the SPI bus, for example a ribbon cable connecting the CONN_SD port on the Duet to the PanelDue for using a second SD card?
If the answer is no, please ask your supplier for a new daughter board.
-
Well, I've ordered a new daughter board but i still get the same issue. And no I've nothing connected to SPI bus. There is no PanelDue nor a second SD card.
-
Have you removed the PT100 sensor from the hot end or is it still installed? I'm wondering whether it may have developed a short between the element and the case.
-
It's the same even if installed in the hotend or not. If I read the voltage on the middle 2 pins I get a reading of about 2V with the E3D PT100 and about 0.2V for the Ultimaker PT100. With both those voltages i get 2000 degrees in the Frontend.
-
The 0.2V with the Ultimaker sensor sounds plausible, the 2V with the E3D one sounds like an open circuit sensor, or else it's a thermistor not a PT100.
If you send the M305 P1 X201 command from the Gcode Console, does it return an error message?
-
It is all fine when I send M305 P1 X200 or X2001, no error message whatsoever. It even turns off the fan shortly that is set to start at 40 degrees but that runs continuously now because of the 2000 degrees.
-
What voltage do you read across the outer 2 pins of the 4 pin terminal block? It should be the same 0.2V that you get across the inner ones, with the good PT100 connected.
-
Yes the outer 2 pins show 0.2 V as well. I really don't get this, why did it used to work and now nothing helps? There is nothing burnt or damaged on the duet itself.
-
My best guess is that the SPI bus isn't working but I'm puzzled that there is no error message. Do you have anything connected to the expansion connector?
-
Still no, as I've already said.
-
I suggest you ask your supplier to replace the Duet.
-
Well, I've gotten the replacement for the DuetWifi, but since i haven't seen any damage at my previous DuetWifi I haven't had big hopes and thats exaclty what it tourned out. No luck and everything is still the same, giving me a reading of 2000 degrees. I have even tried the solution from here: https://miscsolutions.wordpress.com/2016/06/25/more-delta-printer-upgrades-wifi-and-silence/.
There was also the E3D PT100 sensor used and 4 wires were connected to the sensor wires.
Now everything is new: the duet, the daughter board & the PT100, so it must be the configration. I have tried the following configs:- M305 P1 X200 (E3D and Ultimaker PT100)
- M305 P1 T100000 B4725 C7.060000e-8 R4700 X200 (E3D PT100 only)
- M305 P1 X201 (E3D and Ultimaker PT100)
- M305 P1 T100000 B4725 C7.060000e-8 R4700 X201 (E3D PT100 only)
what else could be the issue here?
-
Maybe it's because you've set P1 to use both channels (X200 and X201). If you've only got one PT100 and it's used on the hot end, all you need is M305 P1 X200. If you are using 2 PT100s, one for the bed and one for the hot end, then you have something like M305 P0 X200 and M305 P1 X201. You don't need the thermistor and ADC parameters for a PT 100 but those lines probably just get ignored.
-
Can you post your full Config.g file wonder if there is a line after the M305 that may be overriding it?

Ian I think the op has tried all those lines one at a time to try and get to the bottom of the issue not all at the same time
-
The strange thing is that it used to work before until it failed in the beginning of a print. Since then i only fiddled around with the M305 P1 command.

Something to try. Go to the GCode console in DWC and send M305 P1 X0 followed by M305 P1 X200. If it can't communicate with the chip on the daughter board, it should return an error message within a few seconds. Repeat for channel 201. If you get no errors, you can test whether the error reporting is working by trying a channel you don't have such as 202 or 203.
-
Taking a step back and reading through this thread, it seems that it was all working fine then suddenly failed. Since then, you've tried a different sensor, a new daughter board and a new duet board. So how about the actual wires that link the sensor to the daughter board? That's the only thing I can think of that you haven't explicitly said has been replaced.
-
Yes the error reporting is working and i get no error when calling M305 P1 X0 and M305 P1 X200 or X201 right after that. I've tried that before.
Can I somehow debug the firmware? Maybe there i can find out what the issue is.
-
I really don't think it's a firmware issue, because other people (including me) are using PT100 sensors without this problem. Some users see temperature spikes to 2000C, caused by interference. That's why I would really like to know how your board behaves with just the 2 links and a 100 to 180 ohm resistor connected to the terminals.
