I have a vcore 3.1 with eva 2.0 head. I uncommented the 4 pin fan header for the part cooling fan in both 25khz and 100hz but nothing. I have a manta m8p v1.1 and its connected to fan5

What is connected to fan5? Blue wire or red and black?

pearl flare
#

I have blue, white, red, black. I just swapped from a jst connector to a dupont thinking that was my mistake but it still isn't working.

#

I extended the wires from the fan to the board and soldered the wires together instead of crimping.

check you fans datasheet

pearl flare
#

does it know that I have it connected to the MCU not the toolhead since I run an ebb42?

#

I have a back up 4028 2 pin incase I cant figure this out. Are four wire fans worth the hassle?

How do you know which is which here, you've used 2 identical wire colors.

#

post your printer.cfg

#

I knew you would ask. I traced it back twice to confirm my order is correct. If you zoom in you see the two red wires and two black wires are different. Thats all I had. here is the connections

#

darker slightly thinner red wire = Blue PWR, thinner solid black = white tach, thicker red wire = VIN, and the thicker black/red wire = Ground

Then prolly just a matter of config 🙂

#

this is the only change I have made in the config

#

give us the full printer.cfg

#

I just download it from klipper?

#

move [include RatOS/4pin-fans/part-cooling-fan-25khz.cfg] to your user overrides section. Because when you use a toolboard it assumes that you will use the toolboard for the fan

like this?

#

that worked!!!!!!

#

wow this thing is powerful and loud!

#

I should probably redo my PID calibration as this should change things up a bit. You guys are awesome!!! Thank you

#

Could I ask for another question while I have the help. If you see on my last image I uncommented the max accel to decel because I was getting an error with that line commented but I was following ratrig documentation. I uncommented it for now until I fix it.

#

Also does it matter that I have the EBB42 with the adxl in the vertical mounting position?

Klipper renamed that variable I believe

@charred sandal max_accel_to_decel does not exist anymore.

yeah youre throwing us new guys off 😅

#

I don't see the "skew" section either for that calibration in the printer config
