[Ultimaker Original Acrylic Homemade Build - Thermocouple/Temp/Initial Setup]

Ok guys thanks for walking me through that one, I got the temp sensor figured out, running a thermistor direct to the board I have room temp in cura. Now my question is, since I have the wrong 12v 40w for my e3d, can I order the dfrobot 19v 38w heater cartridge (will it be in the margin of error?) and is it a direct drop in replacement for the ultimaker original one?

In configurations.h it says 595 but it never says 597 as thermo option, this is my current firmware settings with a picture of the current board. Im sorry if this has already been answered 1000 times I've really been searching both the ultimaker and reprap forums. Printer connects to repetier-host but gives me the same 134 ish room temp reading and I cant move the steppers with the arrow controls.

Does anybody know if you can just wire the temp sensor directly to the board and cut out the thermocouple? I remember seeing something about just hooking up the sensor directly to the signal and ground connection points on the motherboard connection. The more research I do there more I see how much of a nightmare temp sensing issues are with the umo. I can't believe I'm about to buy a prusa i3 kit because I can't get this thing running, this is so lame. I'm so close, I literally feel like I just have to change the right thing in configurations.h and it would work. But I don't know what to change.

Thanks for the speedy reply, looks like I have a tc1 thermocouple board and I need a tc2 from fabrc8, and it looks like there boards are back in stock now, I'll post what happens.

Hello all, I've been gathering parts and building this Ultimaker Original since early December. I cut the acrylic parts on the laser at my college, and yes I regret making it out of acrylic but I did manage to assemble it and it looks sweet, just too bad I cant get it running. The major modifications it has is the e3d print head, and um2 feeder upgrade with the um1 adapter. When I connect to cura it recognizes the printer uploads new firmware, then when it goes to check nozzle temp it says the temp is 127, instead of something like 30. If I skip that step and go to check x, y, z axes it does not connect to printer. Just switched out the motherboard for one from folger tech, I bought the red thermocouple I pictured, thinking about buying the black one because that seems to be the issue, I have the genuine ultimaker original thermo sensor from fabrc8, looks like fabrc8 does not sell the thermocouple circuit board. Any thoughts would be nice I can provide more pics and info. Thank You
