Just Updated from a very old firmware

Just lost my SD card (pinged out and down a crevis I cant get at) and don't have my config backed up so O figured while i'm starting from scratch I should update the firmware too, it hasn't been updated for a good year now.

All seemed well and after refreshing myself with the procedure I set about rebuilding the config file for my mini Kossel.

Couple of questions:

If I set the nozzle temp to 260 or over I now get a warning of fault or high heat, the temperature 'cell' on the paneldue also goes purple. Where can I change the max temperature value? I'm using a genuine E3D V6 and use polycarbonate so need high temps.

Trying to m303 h1 but it hits the preset limit of 225 and cancles, am I safe running m303 h1 s300 for instance? EDIT: Nope, if I set s above 260 it returns a 'bad parameter' .

The PIDs are then auto saved and always used when the cycle completes?

Thanks in advance and apologies if dumb questions, i've been merrily printing without fiddling for so long now i'm out of touch with the latest and greatest.

; Thermistors
;*** If you have a Duet board stickered "4.7K", change R1000 to R4700 to the following M305 commands
M305 P0 T100000 B3950 R1000 H30 L0	; Put your own H and/or L values here to set the bed thermistor ADC correction

; Z probe and compensation definition
;*** If you have an IR zprobe instead of a switch, change P4 to P1 in the following M558 command
M558 P1 X0 Y0 Z0					; Z probe is a switch and is not used for homing any axes
G31 X0 Y0 Z1.5 P500				; Set the zprobe height and threshold (put your own values here)

;*** If you are using axis compensation, put the figures in the following command
M556 S78 X0 Y0 Z0                   ; Axis compensation here

M208 S1 Z-0.2						; set minimum Z
;
T0									; select first hot end

There was a limit of 260C added in the last one or two updates. To change it, just add the line "M143 S280" to your config file. In my example, the limit would be changed to 280C.

PID has since switched over to an entirely new method, including auto-tuning. You can find the procedure for how to do that here (Clicky!).

m143......

doh!

Thank you! Sods law, I found it just after posting. Wouldn't have found it if I didnt ask though!

No problem. I find the same thing happens when I'm looking for a specific tool. I never find the proper tool I need until I use another in some dumb way it wasn't designed for.
