It worked!

Thanks for all of the help guys!

The setting to switch to T2 is in pin.h

I have tried both of those above definitions for my bed temp input. 

In all of those cases, I receive an error on the LCD display "BED TEMP ERROR" or similar.  Not sure where to look in repetier to see what the actual reading is.

I have tried moving the extruder NTC over to T1 and it too gets me nothing, so I truly believe it is the input into the board and I need to remap it to T2 if possible.

However, this is my first build and I am open to suggestions!

Thanks guys.

If use NTC Honeywell 100k Thermistor,
#define TEMP_SENSOR_BED 7

if use Iverntech NTC 3950 100k Thermistor
#define TEMP_SENSOR_BED 11

The glass bulb type. I used a Dremel and made a channel in the plastic support under the glass and an indentation to accommodate the glass bulb so it just made contact with the glass. That way I could use the standard thermistor in Marlin since there is no good choice for the stock one.

This forum has been very helpful getting me started with my RAMPS conversion.

I have a fully operational RAMPS conversion for my Davinci 1.0a, that had a burned out motor driver. 

However, I am unable to get the bed temperature control to work.  I have followed most guides and have my hot end thermistor wired to T0 on the RAMPS board.  I am then wiring the thermistor on the bed to T1 on the RAMPS board.

I first started with the stock thermistor, and tried several of the thermistor options in the config.h file.  I always had an error that didnt allow me to run the printer, so for the past two days I have had that line commented out:

#define TEMP_SENSOR_0 5  // Closest match to the Da Vinci Thermistor with Beta = 4380
//#define TEMP_SENSOR_1 0
//#define TEMP_SENSOR_2 0
//#define TEMP_SENSOR_3 0
//#define TEMP_SENSOR_BED 1 //NTC Honeywell 100k Thermistor Beta = 3974

I figured it had something to do with the stock thermistor so I ordered some of these:

https://www.amazon.com/Iverntech-Thermi … Marlin+NTC

I am still not getting any sensible readings back from it, I have checked all wiring with a DMM and everything.

Is there any troubleshooting method so that I can see if the board is actually just reading the NTC correctly, or is there a way to assign it to T2 instead to see if that works?

Thanks!
