Thanks Dust, I'll look into it! QuoteDust Can't comment on duet, its way outside my price bracket. I wouldn't go for a real smoothieware board anymore... But I do like the bigtreetech SKR 1.4 (uses lpc1768 32 bit cpu) Cheap, socketed stepper drivers supporting modern drivers, has all the basic features... well supported by Marlin2by TBK2020 - Sanguino(lolu)
Thanks for your help Dust, I had a feeling that would be the case. I've been looking into new controllers. What would you recommend as a replacement? I've been looking at maybe a Duet2 or a smoothieboard Thanks! QuoteDust the ADC is part of the processor on the controller.... You can replace the processor, If you can do surface mount electronics, but realistically a 1284p or 644p is no lby TBK2020 - Sanguino(lolu)
Hi Dust, Yea I checked the resistance at the cable ends and all my stocked thermistors and the one fitted to the hot end all read about the same, 100k ohms at room temp. If the ADC port is damaged, is there a way of fixing it? It seems odd that once the thermistor is plugged in, it starts off reading about -19C but the temp elevates then I hold it in my hand. So it does seem to react correctby TBK2020 - Sanguino(lolu)
Hi all, first time poster here and very inexperienced with software and configuring it. I have a very old Mendel with a Melzi 1.0 board (original from 2013) The other day the bed thermistor failed and the bed did not heat. That's understandable. I replaced the thermistor with another of the same type. The temperature is reading about -19C. The thermistor checks out at about 100k ohms. I swappeby TBK2020 - Sanguino(lolu)
