My printer use a 100K thermistor to sense the hot end temperature, and works very well. Plotting the temperature with Repetier Host shows the readings bounce a fraction of a degree.
However, if I install a PT1000 sensor, and recompile with a hot end sensor of 1047, the temperature plot bounces up to +/- 20 degrees, and the temperature will not stabilize enough for the print to start. No amount of PID tuning helps in any way.
I have even replaced the platinum RTD with a laboratory grade fixed resistor. The temperature reading is correct, but very unstable. Obviously Marlin does something very different when reading a thermistor versus an RTD, and not in a good way. This seems to be true for any release of Marlin.
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!
