        <title>Repetier/Rumba heatedbed thermistor issue</title>
        <description> I am building a printer and using a Rumba control board along with Repetier firmware. I am currently having issue with the thermistor on the heated be being reported as defective by Repetier host. I have tried all the different setting and three different thermistors and it says they are all defective.

Anything obviously wrong with the firmware below:

Host says : Heated Bed : Temp sensor defect. 1081.75 degrees C


// ############# Heated bed configuration ########################

/** \brief Set true if you have a heated bed conected to your board, false if not */
#define HAVE_HEATED_BED true

Extruder settings that seem to work just fine

            <description><![CDATA[ I switched to Marlin Firmware  and Pronterface and now have a temp reading from my heated bed.<br />
I'll switch to some other combo when I am ready to go to multiple extruders.<br />

            <description><![CDATA[ Stupid question time. Could my problem be that under the Heated bed configuration it spells it:<br />
<br />
HEATED_BED_SENSOR_TYPE 7    <b>HEATED</b><br />
<br />
and under pins.h as <br />
<br />
HEATER_BED_PIN 9   <b>HEATER</b><br />
<br />
If the Bed temp contacts are broken, would it be difficult to reprogram one of the other sets of pins to work as the bed temp monitor?<br />
<br />
I'm not a programmer, in case you couldn't tell.<br />
<br />
<br />
Thanks.<br />

            <description><![CDATA[ I have also checked all of my thermistors with a meter and get reading of about 100k ohms so I am confident that they are all OK. I have also switched the wires for the extruder over to the bed temp hookups and Repetier Host says it is defective too, even though it reads just fine when connected to the extruder temp hook ups.]]></description>
