Basic Information:

Printer Model: Two Trees SP5 v3
MCU / Printerboard:MKS Robin E3 V3
Host / SBC BTT Pad 7 w/ CB1 SBC
klippy.log NA

Fill out above information and in all cases attach your klippy.log file (use zip to compress it, if too big). Pasting your printer.cfg is not needed
Be sure to check our “Knowledge Base” Category first. Most relevant items, e.g. error messages, are covered there

Describe your issue:

… Is there a list of thermistor designations for Klipper? I need to replace the nozzle thermistor and the ones I’m thinking of ordering define themselves a NTC100K 3950. The one now in printer.cfg is Epcos 100K B57560G104F. Are these, and other 100K thermistors equivalent? If not how do I know what syntax to use for defining it?

Thanks

Built in thermistor types are clearly defined in the documentation.

You can also use [thermistor my_thermistor] to define your own.

Thanks, I looked but didn’t find that in the Klipper docs.

Generic 3950 looks to be the one I want.

Thanks for the help
