Re: Extruder 1 and 2 do not spin - Repetier Firmware

This is a list of my troubleshooting methods;
- I have compiled every single option for #define TEMP_SENSOR_BED (Nothing works, the room temp reading doesn't even register)Does Viki or the Host software give any reading for the bed at all?

- I have re-wired heated bed thermistor (Nothing works, I thought b/c of wires polarity maybe the wires are connected to board wrong but when I switch around it has no effect on Temp reading)Thermistors do not have polarity. If your wires from the thermistor are color coded then that is a thermocouple and not a thermistor. If it is a thermocouple then you will need to get rid of it and replace it with a thermistor as the Azteeg HBED input is for a thermistor and cannot read a thermocouple.


- I have changed PS to 85 amp The power supply you use right now does not matter as we are only powering up the Azteeg and Viki. We are not going to run motors, heat extruders, or beds at this time. Out priority is to get the Azteeg to read the beds temp at room temp which should be around 23 depending on the actual room temp.

Question #1: Can you give me any other troubleshooting options?Confirm if your bed has a thermocouple or thermistor. Post a screen shot of the actual device at the bed if possible. If the wires are the same color then we are working with a thermistor which is good. If they are White and Blue or other two colors then it is a thermocouple and we have an issue.

Question #2: What else can I check or change to try and get room temp reading correctly from heated bed?I am going to look at the firmware and the pins.h as well as the actual pins chart and see if I see an issue. For now I am going on the assumption we are dealing with a thermistor till you confirm.

carl_m1968, you wrote

    You need to use a solid state relay

I have ordered the relays you posted on an earlier thread (http://amzn.to/1LQFTO0) and are waiting for them to arrive to my home, but in the meantime I want to get the room temp reading from heated bed.

Question #3: Can I get a proper reading without using relays? You only need one relay, and as I said we are  not powering anything but the Azteeg and Viki right now just to get room temp readings. So no you do not need the relay right now.

Thank you:-)

Re: Extruder 1 and 2 do not spin - Repetier Firmware

Hello,

Thank you for your feedback.

Question: Viki or the Host software give any reading for the bed at all?
Answer: Host software does not give proper reading.

Question: Confirm if your bed has a thermocouple or thermistor.
I would like to apologize for my previous comment

I thought b/c of wires polarity maybe the wires are connected to board wrong but when I switch around it has no effect on Temp reading

Answer: my extruders are on thermocouples and my heated bed is on a thermistor (they are the same color)

Re: Extruder 1 and 2 do not spin - Repetier Firmware

Does the software give any kind of reading rather it is proper or not for the bed. What exactly does the software say for the bed temp. Screenshot if possible. Also screen shot if possible of the printer configuration settings in your host software. Sorry but we are going to get this fixed if it kills us.. wink

Re: Extruder 1 and 2 do not spin - Repetier Firmware

You are so Awesome, thank you. I am really beat up with this printer and your responses keep me going. THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

The temp reading is 118.60C

Re: Extruder 1 and 2 do not spin - Repetier Firmware

So we do have a reading then. Is it always 118.60 no matter what or does it vary even though it is wrong.

Re: Extruder 1 and 2 do not spin - Repetier Firmware

That is correct. The only time the number changes is when I compile it with a different temp sensor.

Example:
#define TEMP_SENSOR_BED 2 (0.00C)
#define TEMP_SENSOR_BED 4 (48.17C)
I have compiled every single option, but non of them turn on heated bed. (Marlin Firmware)

I can however get bed started using Repetier, but the temp reading are the same as Marlin.

Re: Extruder 1 and 2 do not spin - Repetier Firmware

Ok since we are sure you have a thermistor the bed_temp_sensor should be 1 and nothing else. Set it for 1 and recompile then tell me what the software is reporting as bed temp.

In addition look in your Repetier pins.h tab and see what pin the bed sensor is set for.

Re: Extruder 1 and 2 do not spin - Repetier Firmware

Ok, so I have compiled 1 and it reads as follows:http://soliforum.com/i/?bbvxuZc.jpg

Re: Extruder 1 and 2 do not spin - Repetier Firmware

I have also tried changing

 #if MB(RAMPS_13_EFF) || MB(RAMPS_13_EEF)
    #define HEATER_BED_PIN     -1    // NO BED
  #else
    #if MB(3DRAG)
      #define HEATER_BED_PIN     9    // BED
    #else
      #define HEATER_BED_PIN     8    // BED
    #endif

to

 #if MB(RAMPS_13_EFF) || MB(RAMPS_13_EEF)
    #define HEATER_BED_PIN     8    // NO BED
  #else
    #if MB(3DRAG)
      #define HEATER_BED_PIN     8    // BED
    #else
      #define HEATER_BED_PIN     8    // BED
    #endif

but I received same results.

These settings only apply to a RAMPS board not an Azteeg. When looking at the Pins.H you must pay close attention to the #if lines and what they are for..

Re: Extruder 1 and 2 do not spin - Repetier Firmware

I understand, I am just really desperate at this point. I am trying a lot of different things. Any thoughts as on my pins.h file?

I will be doing my conversion with a similar setup in a few days. I got everything wired up, just waiting for a cable to connect the VIKI 2 to my X3 Pro. Should be here Friday i hope then I can upload the firmware to mine and see what happens. At least then I can have a machine front of me with a similar setup and see what is happening.


For now since you did have the bed heating with Repetier firmware go back to it and make the needed changes that where made in Marlin for the thermocouples on the extruders and see if that gets you running. Once I get Marlin running on my setup I will send you the firmware copy and you can try it and see which gives you better results.

Re: Extruder 1 and 2 do not spin - Repetier Firmware

Well I got mine up and running with Marlin. My machine was a CTC Dual Extruder model. I upgrade the extruders to Flashforge Avatar MK10 extruder. They use thermocouples instead of thermistors. I removed the mightyboard clone and replaced it with an Azteeg X3 Pro running Marlin firmware. As of right now the extruders both heat and temp is displayed accurately and has been confirmed. The extruder cooling fans operated for each extruder if their temp gets over 50c. The bed uses a standard 100K thermistor and it heats and the temp is displayed accurately.

The X Y Z axis all move correctly and the end stops function and register correctly. I still need to tweak steps per mm on each Axis and make sure the extruder motors are running the correct direction, and calibrate the offset between the nozzles. But other then that the majority of the work is done. I am attaching images to show the temps and I am also attaching the firmware as it is now on my machine.

Nice job Carl. you will have to let us know how it prints when you get to that. smile

Re: Extruder 1 and 2 do not spin - Repetier Firmware

Thanks, took nearly 8 hours. Also for those planning to use one of these Azteeg X3 Pro boards, I found if you try to run it from a laptop it has communication problems unless you connect it through a powered hub. I tried three different laptops and s desktop all running the same version of win 7. The desktop worked fine but it is on the other side of the room so no good. All three laptops would not even see it or say it was an unknown device. So I had a powered hub left from my bitcoin mining adventure and tried it. Well holy cow now it works. I guess the power on a laptops USB port is more limited than a desktop and the Azteeg exceeds that limit.

Update:

Found a jumper on the board that was not documented to well. It had two positions marked INT or USB. It was set to INT by default. I moved to USB and it now talks to the laptop without using a hub which is what I prefer just to keep things neater.

Re: Extruder 1 and 2 do not spin - Repetier Firmware

great feedback "carl_m1968". I had the same issue with my laptop. I had no idea that is what was happening. I also fixed with desktop.

It is very cool that you were able to get everything working and ready in such a short time. I am eager to see one of your prints. Your 3d printer sounds really cool. Would love to see more:-)
