@wieman01 Of course you were correct the print did come loose. But I am not finished We have bead basted a glass build plate and also using Nano polymer. I will power down tonight and see what we get in the morning.

RE: PID Tuning Procedure
@Phaedrux
After all your help I wanted to give you an update. I have been using the commissioning document to fine tune the board. As I now have this "Work" printer at my home I have been doing this in the evenings. I am very close with the basic setup and may start a test print tonight or tomorrow, definitely by this weekend. -
RE: PID Tuning Procedure
@Phaedrux
Thank you for your input and all your help. All the heaters have been tuned. All the steppers have been calibrated. I printed this Benchy over the weekend. This looks pretty good to me! Have a great day.Carl

RE: Pause the print for the day.
The first test was a success! Thanks for all the help! After the firmware update there was no excessive extrusion at restart after power loss.
Today I will start a test print about an hour before we go home for the day. I will pause and power down like this morning, but I will not restart until tomorrow morning 7am EST. The printer will be at room temp when I get to work 75 deg F, this will test bed adhesion.

RE: Extruder set point limited to 270c
@jay_s_uk
I have never seen a heating element fail in this manor before, but it looks like I let some of the smoke out. I will have replacement elements today and will replace tommrow. Once this is done I will report back. Thank you for your help.Carl

RE: Pause the print for the day.
@wieman01 I don't have a photo but there was only a very fine line. So you could see where it stopped and then restarted. I mean to say that I could see it only because i knew it was there.

@norder Also very helpfull! Thank you again!

RE: Extruder set point limited to 270c
@jay_s_uk
It turns out, I have still never seen a heating element fail in this manor. The problem was a loose connection. I have a small two pole screw terminal connecting the heating element in the hot end back to the control board. As I began to disassemble the hot end I found the loose terminal connection. It is heating and controlling as it should at 400 deg. C. You can mark this one solved! Thanks for all the help.Carl

RE: Stepper skipping/single phasing
@engikeneer the board is the duet 3D wifi if that is what your asking. I agree with both of you. I did some more searching after I posted this. I am pretty sure its a bad connection or broken wire. I have ordered new plugs and will run new PTFE coated wire. i will update when done. should be back up mid next week. Thanks for all your help.

RE: Inductive bed leveling sensor
@oliof Wow, sorry again! You were true. I just looked up the Euclid sensor. I think this will work thank you.

RE: Inductive bed leveling sensor
@oliof I am sorry I left out some important information. I plan to be printing high temperature filaments in a heated enclosure. The leveling sensor I use will need to be able to handle around 100 deg C in the enclosure. It seems the industrial machines use glass beds? What sensor do they use?
Thanks for you input. Have a great day.Carl

Inductive bed leveling sensor
Re: Inductive bed leveling sensor
I was hoping for so more advice on this topic. I originally asked about using an inductive bed leveling sensor with a Buildtack magnetic build plate. I would also like to be able to continue to use glass when necessary.
Please see below the inductive sensor I have chosen. I assume this would connect to the "Z Probe" Connector on the duet board? Any advice you could offer would be greatly apricated. Thank you in advance.

RE: PID Tuning Procedure
@Phaedrux
I ran in to a issue maybe you can help with?
When I home the axis individually or by home all, they work correctly. Once homed X, and Y work properly. But Z goes in the wrong direction. If I select +25mm it will go back towards the end stop. I have changed from S1 to S0 in the homing and config.g a few times trying different combinations but no luck. See below the config.g, homeall.g and homeZ.g
Thank you in advance.3/20/24
