how to diable pinda heating

Is there a way to disable pinda heating prior to printing?
I don't know why my printer suddenly starts doing this. Before it only did it once in a while.
But now every single print i have to wait 2 minutes before it starts. An issue if you want to quickly test things.

Re: how to diable pinda heating

This behavior is controlled in you slicer, not the printer. Your slicer has a section for "start gcode" which tells the printer what to do before sending the file to the printer. You can alter its behavior there.

Any advices given are offered in good faith. It is your responsibility to ensure that by following my advice you do not suffer or cause injury, damage or loss. If you solve your problem, please post the solution…

Ok. i thought about that. But what gcode line is responsible for the pinda heating?
for example if i look at my print settings in cura i see

G21 ; set units to millimeters
G90 ; use absolute positioning
M82 ; absolute extrusion mode
M104 S{material_print_temperature} ; set extruder temp
M140 S{material_bed_temperature} ; set bed temp
M190 S{material_bed_temperature} ; wait for bed temp
M109 S{material_print_temperature} ; wait for extruder temp
G28 W ; home all without mesh bed level
G80 ; mesh bed leveling
G92 E0.0 ; reset extruder distance position
G1 Y-3.0 F1000.0 ; go outside print area
G1 X60.0 E9.0 F1000.0 ; intro line
G1 X100.0 E21.5 F1000.0 ; intro line
G92 E0.0 ; reset extruder distance position

I don't see anything related to the pinda probe.
Any idea?

Also. i don't think it is part of the gcode,
because even with the provided samples from prusa i am getting the heating pinda thing first.

I think you can turn this off in the printer menu, calibration/temperature calibration.

The PINDA probe does not perform any heating, it is a sensor.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inductive_sensor

The resistor inside the nozzle heatblock and the heatbed are the only components that perform heating, both of which are required.

Why would you want to disable heating?

There is a routine in the firmware where the pinda is held right above the heated heat bed for a couple of minutes before the Z calibration to heat it up and theoretically get a more accurate calibration, as heat affects the pinda's sensitivity.

Turn it off in the calibration menu in the printer.
