Significant Temp Overshoot

I have a Taz 6 with an Archim 2 board running marlin 2.0.7.2. I’m also running a flexydually v1 with the Budaschnozzle with a 4.7-ohm resistor and the Honeywell 100k thermistor, both brand new. When I heat up either hotend I get a temp overshoot of 40-60c which makes PID autotuning impossible. I’m compiling my own copy of marlin, built from drunkenoctopus, I’ve tried both the #5 and #7 (I think it should be #7) thermistors, and both yield the same result.

Is there something I’m missing in my config.h file? It seems like there is too much power going to the hotend, I can’t find anywhere that might have some good starting values for what the PID might be for the budaschnozzle.

This printer isn’t mine, I’m upgrading it for a friend and I don’t want to have to purchase a newer version of the flexy dually to make it work if I don’t have to.

Thank you!

At some point, someone contributed Budaschnozzle settings for TAZ 4. I have no idea if they would work for you, but the following is an excerpt from the configuration script:

    MARLIN["TEMP_SENSOR_0"]                          = 7
    MARLIN["TEMP_RESIDENCY_TIME"]                    = 10
    MARLIN["TEMP_WINDOW"]                            = 1
    MARLIN["TEMP_HYSTERESIS"]                        = 3
    MARLIN["HEATER_0_MAXTEMP"]                       = 250
    MARLIN["BANG_MAX"]                               = 70
    MARLIN["PID_MAX"]                                = 74
    MARLIN["THERMAL_PROTECTION_PERIOD"]              = 40  # Seconds
    MARLIN["THERMAL_PROTECTION_HYSTERESIS"]          =  8  # Degrees Celsius
    MARLIN["WATCH_TEMP_PERIOD"]                      = 60  # Seconds
    MARLIN["WATCH_TEMP_INCREASE"]                    = 8   # Degrees Celsius
    MARLIN["DEFAULT_Kp"]                             =  6
    MARLIN["DEFAULT_Ki"]                             =  .3
    MARLIN["DEFAULT_Kd"]                             = 125

Oh, this is a huge help. Thank you. I dropped my BANG_MAX to 115, but it was still oscillating 5c or so once it reached my target temp, so 70 makes a lot of sense. I’ll look through my settings again and compare them to this list.

Thank you for sharing this!

@marciot These settings worked perfectly, thank you for helping me, I really appreciate it!
