From c84956befe88daeeb9512acaa9fa82395665df16 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kevin O'Connor Date: Wed, 1 Sep 2021 12:54:25 -0400 Subject: heaters: Change default smooth_time from 2 seconds to 1 second A larger smooth_time results in a slower reaction time for the PID. This increased delay can cause temperature oscillations with high power heaters. Many boards produce good results without any smoothing. So, it seems a smooth_time of 1 second is a better default.
