Bed not heating
I’m nearing the end of a V-Core 3.1 500mm build. Everything on the machine is working exactly as expected except for one issue.
I’m using a Raspberry Pi 4 connected to an Octopus 1.1. Everything is wired correctly. But, the 24v that is supposed to come from the Octopus to the SSR to switch on the bed heater isn’t there. I’ve checked in the [Heater_Bed] section and the pin is defined as PA1, which is correct according to the 1.1 datasheet. When I apply external power, the light on the SSR illuminates and the bed begins to heat.
Initially, I thought it was a bad Octopus 1.1, so I replaced it. The same issue is still present. Since it is present on multiple main boards, and all the components work as expected, even the heater when the SSR is triggered manually, I assume it has to be a Config issue, but I’m not finding it.
What could I be missing?
