@Eclsnowman what do you use as your thermistor for the AliRubber heated bed?
What settings in the config?
@Eclsnowman yeah, looking at smoothies site they give a list of possible thermistors, no idea which to pick.
Doing a config setup for the first time in my life… Looks easy when others do it but not so easy when I’m on the pointy end of the spear
You can do:
temperature_control.bed.beta 3950 # or set the beta value
(Less accurate, but fine for a heated bed)
Or
temperature_control.bed.coefficients 0.0006454337947,0.0002239473005,0.000000087 #Alirubber 800W 120V
The last one was calculated by @Zane_Baird via the Steinhart Hart coefficients method: steinharthart [smoothieware.org]
steinharthart [smoothieware.org]
@Eclsnowman k. Thanks!
I pulled the V3 config off Panucatt’s site, that the best starting point or should I be going to the smoothie site or?? (Might as well ask before I get too far into this one) I’m seeing a lot of things that look different from the old V2 one on the Github for the Eustathios.
@Eclsnowman do I ‘#’ comment out the temperature_control.bed.beta and “…control.bed.thermistor” and add in a line w/ your noted “temperature.control.bed.coefficients”
??
@jerryflyguy use the one from the smoothieware site: https://github.com/Smoothieware/Smoothieware/tree/edge/ConfigSamples/AzteegX5Mini/Version3
And you are correct, if you use the second one, comment out the other line in the fresh config and add the new line “copy/paste”
Yes the new smoothieware configs differ a bunch from my old one. They made a lot of great improvements recently and so some formatting changed.
@Eclsnowman all the Viki2 stuff off the old config just gets copied across? Same pins and what not?
@jerryflyguy nope. But it is in the new one on the smoothieware github. Just need to uncomment it.
Disregard that one… Found the problem (panel enable was false)
Is there a better way to shut down the system than just pulling the 110v off the 24v power supply? I’ve got a switch there but it just feels harsh to shut it off that way
