Reading Chamber Temperature

repman

I added a chamber temperature sensor and want to monitor that.

I added the sensor in klippers printer.cfg and via the console the M105 command shows the right temperature:

Send:22:17:04.429: N39 M105Recv:22:17:04.430: B:25.5 /0.0 C:25.7 /0.0 T0:23.1 /0.0

In Repetier-Server I added the "heated chamber" tool and after that the symbol for heated chamber appears in the printer bar.

But the shown temperature is still 0.0°C

How can I display the right temperature? Do I need a special alias?

Yes, you need to set the name you gave it in klipper config. Guess you added it as generic heater so set the name in server so it knows which one belongs to the chamber. Since this is freely definable we need that info.

repman

Sorry, no success. As I just want to monitor the chamber temperature I added a sensor.

In my printer.cfg:

#####################################################################

# Chamber
#####################################################################
[temperature_sensor chamber]
sensor_type: ATC Semitec 104GT-2 #ATC Semitec 104GT-2 #NTC 100K beta 3950
sensor_pin: PC3
min_temp: 0
max_temp: 100
gcode_id: C

This works from the console:

Send:9:08:58.242: N20 M105

Recv:9:08:58.243: B:22.8 /0.0 C:23.7 /0.0 T0:20.3 /0.0

So the C: is the chamber temperature.

In the RS PrinterConfiguration/Tools/HeatedChamber:

Alias: Chamber

Name in Firmware: C (I also tried chamber, Chamber, C:, C0)

I always see 0.0′C at the box icon in the printer status panel.

What to do?

This is a problem in server if you do it this way. We assumed chamber is defined with
[heater_generic chamber]

I have updated to pi dev version to also listen to [temperature_sensor chamber].
Login via ssh and run
installDev
and see if it works. Currently untested due to missing printer with that config, but quite sure it will work then.

Name in firmware in your case should be: chamber
to match the section in config.

repman

Where can I get that "installDev" from and where should I put it?

I don´t have that script/program.

Repetier

It is part of our newer pi images. Here the source so you can run the same commands with copy and paste

#!/bin/bash

cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep ARMv6

IS_V6=$?

cd /home/pi

rm Repetier-Server-dev.deb

if [ "$IS_V6" == "0" ] ; then

echo "Raspberry Zero or 1 detected, installing armel version..."

wget http://download1.repetier.com/files/server/debian-armel/Repetier-Server-dev.deb</div><div>else</div><div>  echo "Raspberry with v7 or newer command set found. Installing armhf version..."

wget http://download1.repetier.com/files/server/debian-armhf/Repetier-Server-dev.deb</div><div>fi</div><div>sudo dpkg -i Repetier-Server-dev.deb

rm Repetier-Server-dev.deb

repman

Ok, I see! Because of my some kind of outdated touchscreen I'm still on the buster image.

Works! Thank you repetier!
