Board.txt modifications

The following lines should be added to the board.txt file.

SPI3.pins = {PD_12, PD_13, PD_11}
heat.spiTempSensorChannel = 3
heat.spiTempSensorCSPins = { PD_15, PD_14 }

Config.g changes

PT100

To use the PT100 on your hotend, use the following code in config.g If you are in a country where the mains frequency is 50Hz, change the F60 to F50 (if you don’t know, look here)

M308 S1 P"PD_15" Y"rtd-max31865" F60 R430

Type ‘K’ Thermocouple

To use the Type ‘K’ Thermocouple on your hotend, use the following code in config.g

M308 S1 P"PD_14" Y"thermocouple-max6675"
