Orion triggers during tuning but not when Z homing

@gtj0 Thanks - will give that a shot too. Both Orions produce different maps to each other (should have kept a copy of the other, PITA to swap out and do again at the mo. The map from the BLTouch looks way more likely to be accurate and prints pretty well too

Hi,
I recently installed BLTouch v3.0 on both of my current printers.
They seem to be working well. My height maps look very much like I expected they would.

@fcwilt Don;t get me wrong - I love the BLTouch, it's on my MKS IIP and my HEVO. Just feels like we should be able to get better accuracy with the Piezo. I suspect I will end up back with the BLTouch, neither are v3 though

Feelings are great in a relationship with our loved ones.
But when it comes to printers just go with what works and don't aggravate yourself.

@fcwilt LMAO - oh man I'm going to remember that one - so so true
-
@Foden Ok, so I've decided to throw in the towel, again. The probing is still inconsistent even when probing each position 4 times. So enough is enough, back to my trusty BLTouch
Thanks for all the help and supoprt!!!

@Foden
You should have just listened to me!Let us know when the BLtouch is working for you.
Good luck.

@fcwilt BLTouch was working great, just bugs me that I can't get the Piezo to work for better accuracy. THat is back on so will re-calibrate and leave it now

Perhaps it is a flawed product design? Or just a defective unit?

@fcwilt Nah, likely its me - I've been known to be defective before ;o). I have 2 Orions and 2 of the previous PCB's and have never been able to get the consistency i have with the BLTouch
