Initial over temperature situation on I3B with Server but not with Host

This is the first I've noticed this.  I have a simple tube design stl file that I slice with Slcr3 using Host then save the gcode to a file and print the file from server to my I3B Pro (GeeeTech).  Upon initial print the hot end temp, which is set to 214 degrees, overshoots to 250 degrees.  Then the temperature quickly reduces to 214 degrees and printing continues normally for the entire print.  If I print the same design from within Host that overshoot does NOT occur.  The host printing has slightly diffrerent gcode syntax than the server version which I highlighted the hotend temperature sets in the the two communications scenarios happening between the PC and the printer below.  Any idea what is causing the server to behave this way.  I am very skeptical of leaving the printer alone when I see temperature overshoots like this.  I do not believe this is a hardware issue since printing from the host doesn't have the overshoot.

  • G-Code syntax is the same, just that host adds the checksum it sends while server sends it, but does not display it.

    In server check set temperature. If it is never 250 and as you said it goes back to 215 which is also the set temperature this is no server issue. It is just a result of your PID settings for the extruder in firmware. Overshoot is quite normal, just 35°C is quite much. But if you have a strong extruder this can in deed happen. Check in temperatures the curve and output power. There you also see if temperature was higher set at a time. My guess is that you have a high power extruder and it heats still quickly in 215°C range so it overshoots so much. Increase control range or add more damping or lower P factor to give it less power in that area and reduce overshoot.

    This may also vary depending on the start temperature. If you come from < 50°C it will normally more overshoot then when you switch from 200 to 215.
  • the great thing about the PID settings (stock from day one) is the extruder temp is rock solid.  On the control panel for the printer you can prepare the hotend, and when doing so the temp only overshoots initially by 1 degree then falls back to the set temp and never fluctuates.

    If the PID was set incorrectly then why doesn't the host cause the over shoot too?  That is the puzzling part.  Using the Geeetech printing software also doesn't have any overshoot.  
  • As said, firmware controls heating and is responsible for overshoot. So as long as same commands get send same thing should happen.

    Have you tried just sending 
    M104 S214
    and see what happens? If it behaves differently you are sending some additional commands that cause it, but I do not see any command that might cause it. After all M109 even blocks until target is reached so all following commands are not executed. So only if you had send PID changing commands before that would be an explanation. Hence the rest after connecting just setting temperature and see in graph what exactly happens.
