      2 wires for the power supply/mosfet and 2 wires for the sensor. I think the PT100 is welded into the mat and the sensor output is then the connection

        @axiom said in How can I calibrate the temperature of my bed:

        That's what I think. But where is then the thermistor?

        On the one hand, you have a configuration for a thermistor (at least I think so):

        M308 S0 P"bedtemp" Y"thermistor" R4700 T100000 B3950 ; configure sensor 0 as thermistor on pin bedtemp
        

        … proper temperature readings, and - as it looks - a successful tuning. That tells me: your bed heater has a thermistor. You can't get all this with a PT100 at 106 Ohm resistance and wired without a daughterboard.

        On the other hand, your measurement of the sensor's resistance says: there's a PT100 built in.

        Which side should I believe? Can you perhaps give me a link to the manufacturer where he elaborates on the "thermal management solution" he proclaims?

          @infiniteloop Hello, this is the link from the dealer for the heating mats. I have 4 pieces 400x400x24V.

          https://de.aliexpress.com/item/4000577539832.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.0.0.58df5c5fjtq3G7&gatewayAdapt=glo2deu

          Today I would then like to connect the mats to the PT100 daugterboards and then connect the outputs in parallel.
          then I want to do the autotune. Is an average value then automatically calculated for the sensors? At least that's how I understood the description.

            @axiom please post your current config.g. Until we understand if you have PT100 or thermistor, it is difficult to advise you.

              @axiom Moin,

              Thank you for the link. Unfortunately, it isn’t very descriptive, especially concerning the thermal sensors. As far as I understand it, they provide either a thermistor or a PT100, not both. What you get depends on what you order from them. So the problem remains: we don’t know whether your heaters are equipped with thermistors or PT100 sensors.

              Today I would then like to connect the mats to the PT100 daugterboards and then connect the outputs in parallel. Then I want to do the autotune.

              As long as we are not sure what sensors you got, this is a bad idea. Instead, you can try to configure a single heater with a PT100 daughterboard and see what readings you get at room temperature. Please don’t power the heaters at this stage!

                  @infiniteloop I just got it now...I should just connect a sensor to the daughterboard and see what is displayed?

                    @axiom Please post your config.g. It will show what command you are using to get the sensor to show the correct room temperature. This will tell us if it's a thermistor or PT100.

                      As discussed, I have now connected the bed sensor to a PT100 daughterboard.
                      The console shows 2000 degrees!!!!!

                        Yep. And I see from your config that you've done that. What temperature readings do you now get from the bed heater at room temperature?

                            That's far off. I would like to have @droftarts takes a look at this - I don't know what readings the daughterboard should produce if connected to a thermistor instead of a PT100.

                                          @axiom when you measured the resistance of the sensor at 20C using a multimeter, are you sure it read 106 ohms, not 106 kohms? If it's 106 ohms, it's a PT100. If it's 106 kohms, it's a 100K thermistor.
