intcorrect extruder tempreported
Posted: Tue Apr 14, 2015 12:39 am
I have a Prusa I3 Pro B printer.
If I measure the temperature of the hotend with a separate thermometer.
Actually a multimeter with a temp sensor.
The external measurement consistently report a 30 - 40 degrees higher temp
than what the Marlin firmware reports.
What temperature sensor type is the correct one for a Mk8 extruder/hotend ?
I can't find any documentation on what sensor is supplied with the Mk8 extruder...
Everything indicates that the extruder is working at a much higher temp than it should.
Including the extruder "base" bending due to high temperature.
I have tried several 100K sensors but I can't see any difference ?
Please let me know what the correct setting should be.
Regards
