strange message when PID tuning
-
I've changed M308 to reflect more 'default' settings, re-tuned, but still get the same error...
M308 S1 P"e0temp" Y"thermistor" T100000 B3950 A"Hotend Temp"

After doing the tuning can you try sending M500 to save the result to config-override.g. Then you don't have to manually copy anything over. As long as you have M501 at the end of config.g to load those settings it should then take effect at boot up.

Thanks. I'll try that
-
I had to add M501 at the end of config.g (as I dont usually use config-override.g)

Unfortunately I get exactly the same..

I've also been experiencing this also. Once it's at temp all is good

Can we see some photos of the hotend assembly?
-
sure..
A couple of stock images, then three of my setup.
It way be worth mentioning the whole assembly is aluminium.. The block, gears, extruder housing, tensioning arm.
Its fairly similar to the E3d Hermera, although smaller and lighter. -
Is the heat block making contact with the cold side? Can't quite tell from the photo of the underside.
what does your heater graph look like during the tuning?
-
3mm-4mm gap between heat block and cold side.
There's quite a lot of thermal mass with the complete extruder assembly being 100% metal. My initial thoughts were this was the reason for the error. But the pid tuning should take account of this? (tuning was done from cold).
-
Thanks for the feedback on the new algorithm. Will see if DC42 has any tuning suggestions.
-
update - after making a few changes the hotend is now heating without the error.
The all metal throat is secured by two grub screws to the body/heatsink. Although properly secured, I think the throat was heating up, expanding slightly and making better contact with the heatsink, causing it to dump heat a bit quicker and triggering the error.
I've added some thermal compound to the throat/heatsink, re-tuned and can now heat from cold without any issues.
