This section explains how to verify if the Extruder and Heater Bed heating functions are working as expected.

  • From the MainsailOS web interface;

    • Enter 100 in the Extruder Target; OR

    • Send a SET_HEATER_TEMPERATURE HEATER=extruder TARGET=100 command in the Console;

  • After a couple of minutes, your Extruder should heat up and the graph should start showing the proper temperature (by default the Extruder temperature reading is shown in the chart with a purple line);

  • You can verify that the Extruder has heated up by using an infrared thermometer, or a method of your choice (be careful not to touch with your fingers/hand);

  • Once the Extruder temperature has been verified, set the Target temperature back to '0';

    • Enter 0 in the Extruder Target; OR

    • Click on the Cooldown button (turns both Extruder and Heater Bed temperatures off); OR

    • Send a SET_HEATER_TEMPERATURE HEATER=extruder TARGET=0 command in the Console; OR

    • Send a TURN_OFF_HEATERS command in the Console;

  • From the MainsailOS web interface;

    • Enter 60 in the Heater Bed Target; OR

    • Send a SET_HEATER_TEMPERATURE HEATER=heater_bed TARGET=60 command in the Console;

  • After a couple of minutes, your Heater Bed should heat up and the graph should start showing the proper temperature (by default the Heater Bed temperature reading is shown in the chart with a blue line);

  • You can verify that the Heater Bed has heated up by using an infrared thermometer, or a method of your choice (you can use your hand here by hovering above the bed, just be careful not to touch it directly);

  • Once the Heater Bed temperature has been verified, set the 'Target' temperature back to '0';

    • Enter 0 in the Heater Bed Target; OR

    • Click on the Cooldown button (turns both Extruder and Heater Bed temperatures off); OR

    • Send a SET_HEATER_TEMPERATURE HEATER=heater_bed TARGET=0 command in the Console; OR

    • Send a TURN_OFF_HEATERS command in the Console;

  • Once the Extruder and Heater Bed temperatures have been tested, leave them at 0 and ensure they come back down to and stay at room temperature. The Heater Bed will take a bit longer as there is no fan to cool it off.
