Duet maestro and weirdness on start gcode

Agniusm

My maestro started behaving weird. I dont remember if it happened after flashing firmware. I have this start code:
G28 ; home all without mesh bed level
G0 Z70 F500 ; get head above bed to keep it cool
M106 P1 S255 ; Turn on fan
M140 S[first_layer_bed_temperature] ; set bed temp
M104 S180
M190 S[first_layer_bed_temperature] ; wait for bed temp
M104 S180
G28 ; home all without mesh bed leveling
G29 S0 ; mesh bed leveling
M106 S0 ; Turn off fan
M104 S[first_layer_temperature] ; set extruder temp
M109 S[first_layer_temperature] ; wait for extruder temp
G1 Y0 X2 Z0.5 F7000 ; go outside print area
G92 E0 ; reset extrusion distance
G1 X70.0 E9 F1000 ; intro line
G1 X140 E12.5 F1000 ; intro line
M572 D0 S0.07 ; Pressure advance
It does not do "go outside print area" . Extruder stays as where probing finished and does intro line ~10mm above bed at the back instead of front at Z0.5mm

...What is the intended behavior, and what is it doing instead?

Agniusm

It jas to move to the front of the bed and do purging line. Instead it stays at the back and purges mid air.

Post your config.g

Phaedrux

Perhaps you need to add G90 before the move to go out of the printing area to make it an absolute position move and then back to G91 for a relative move to draw the prime line.

Agniusm

The thing is it was working fine. I still have duet wifi(eth now) with the same script and it works fine.

post the actual start code of a generated gcode file.
the slicer will insert additional commands at the beginning.

@veti here is the beginning of the gcode:

; external perimeters extrusion width = 0.42mm
; perimeters extrusion width = 0.42mm
; infill extrusion width = 0.50mm
; solid infill extrusion width = 0.42mm

It does not contain full G1 Y0 X2 Z0.5 F7000 ; go outside print area command with set x coordinate but since i added it, has same outcome.

@agniusm said in Duet maestro and weirdness on start gcode:

G28 W ; home all without mesh bed level

Why the W parameter?

Agniusm

@dc42 It was from prusa start script but its not there now. No change still. Probably had no effect anyway.

G1 Y0.0 F5000 ; go outside print area
G92 E0 ; reset extrusion distance
G1 X70.0 E9 F1000 ; intro line
G1 X140 E12.5 F1000 ; intro line

I say again, it looks like you're missing G90 and G91 commands here. G1 Y0 makes no sense in the context of a relative move. But the next movements are to extrude a prime like, which would require a relative move.

dc42

What firmware versions are your Duet WiFi and Duet maestro running?

Are there any error messages on the GCode Console when this happens?

Agniusm

Maestro on 2.02RC5. My duet wifi(eth now) runs 2.03 but it have never done that but start script is almost the same.
I have not noticed any errors in the gcode console but i will keep an eye.
It finishes mesh bed compensation, and then sort of glitches 1mm or so and stays at that last spot

Agniusm

here is the video:

I have updated to 2.03 and still same.

Veti

you never answered Phaedrux post about switching to absolute positioning for those moves.

Agniusm

@veti I dont know why would it be different as my duet wifi works ok with the same script.
P.S. OK. I have figured it out.
I have placed my move to the fron of the bed before these:
M104 S[first_layer_temperature] ; set extruder temp
M109 S[first_layer_temperature] ; wait for extruder temp
and now it works

Agniusm

Case closed;

Agniusm

Re-opened. Looks like it does it random. I don't know what is happening. Whenever i sliced with the new start script it went and did how it suppose to. Now prints finished and i started same file again and it again remained at the back of the bed and purged mid air.

Veti

as Phaedrux has said multible times in this thread, you need to make sure that when the code is executed it needs to be in absolute positioning . so add the correct G90 and G91 commands to your code.
