Hi guys

i am trying to adjust the PID setting in the marlin firmware eeprom settings

but for some reason it is disabled and does not let me set any of the values in the boxes are all P:0 I:0 D:0 ???

does anyone have any ideas how to change these ?

You need to activate EEPROM in the firmware
To do that you need to de comment these two lines on configuration.h file line 325:

//define this to enable eeprom support
#define EEPROM_SETTINGS
//to disable EEPROM Serial responses and decrease program space by ~1700 byte: comment this out:
// please keep turned on if you can.
#define EEPROM_CHITCHAT

Hey crazy flyer

i recently upgraded to an e3d V6 now my PID autotune alway fails with timeout.

Do you have a point on that?

It’s very strange because I have also a E3D v6 and the auto tune works perfectly !

6

do you use the velleman heater with the e3d v6?

i use the one supplied with the hotend from e3d.

can you post your pid settings please?

If you have a search around you’ll find a reference to setting the heater maximum power in firmware (limits the PWM to less than 100%) so that the temperature doesn’t rise too fast.

i already did that, but i’d like to tune my pid so i can get quick heating AND stable temp

Ok, Thank you!

I use the E3D heater at the moment, maybe that’s the issue.
