I am trying to implement new PID values to try and solve a heat creep issue. The Marlin command M301 and M304 do not get a response (example code below). M104, M503, and M303 all work. When I use M503 to view the current PID values, they also haven't changed. I am using a Monoprice Select Printer and Pronterface to communicate.

  • $\begingroup$ What makes you think that a different PID schedule will give better heat creep resistance? As far as I know there is no link between PID and heat creep, unless you overshoot 40-50 °C or do. Heat creep is mostly related to too high print temperatures, printing speed and retraction length. $\endgroup$ Commented May 18, 2024 at 13:30

According to the description to use M301, the heater number needs to be included,

M301 P20 I0.02 D250 

should therefore be:

M301 H1 P20 I0.02 D250 

Parameters
Hnnn heater number (Smoothie uses 'S', Redeem uses 'E')
Pnnn proportional (Kp)
Innn integral (Ki)
Dnnn derivative (Kd)
Examples
M301 H1 P1 I2 D3 ; Marlin, RepRapFirmware
