Fan Reference Configuration

Drive Fan

  • There are two ways to configure the drive fan:

  • The first method is self-configuration, so that the fan works as soon as the motor starts.

  • The second method is to run directly at startup.

  • First method

  • The exclamation mark before indicates the reversed fan port status, making it work when connected to Klipper.

[output_pin driver_fan]
pin: !PF7
  • Second method
[controller_fan driver_fan]      # Driver cooling fan
pin:
cycle_time: 0.00003 # Cycle time
max_power: 1.0 # Maximum power
shutdown_speed: 0.0 # Shutdown speed
fan_speed: 0.9 # Fan speed when heater or stepper driver is active (0.0 to 1.0). Default is 1.0.
idle_timeout: 90 # Time in seconds to keep the fan running after the stepper driver or heater is no longer active. Default is 30 seconds.
idle_speed: 0.4 # Fan speed after the stepper driver is no longer active and before idle_timeout is reached (0.0 to 1.0). Default is fan_speed.
stepper: stepper_x # Active motors
#Define the name of the heater/stepper configuration section associated with this fan.
#If a comma-separated list of heater/stepper names is provided here, the fan will be enabled when any of the given heaters/steppers are enabled.
#The default heater is "extruder", and the default stepper is all steppers.

7040 Fan

  • Mainly introduces the solution to the fan spinning at startup
info
  • A brief explanation here
  • Add a PWM signal pin during firmware compilation, and reverse its status.
  • For testing with SUPER8_PRO, use pin PF8. During firmware compilation, select GPIO pins to set at micro-controller startup and add !PF8.
  • Please note the ! must be an English exclamation mark.
  • Other motherboards follow the same logic.

Same Pin Configuration for Multiple Fan Ports

  • Not applicable for stepper motor pins
