Help for automatic Z offset with bltouch and Stallguard macro

[pipersw]

Hi,
I have seen the following posts :
https://forum.duet3d.com/topic/4851/automatic-z-trigger-height-calibration/3
https://forum.duet3d.com/topic/4772/motor-stall-detection-as-z-probe/33?_=1576161664265

and I started to write a macro for automatic Z offset calibration with BLtouch and stallguard.
This script have not been tested yet, because my printer is in maintenance.

Bltouch probe offset is X0 Y80.

Someone could tell me if it work :

The only issue I see is that the stallguard Z probe would typically have a negative Z offset for the trigger height since it presses into the bed slightly before triggering. You could use the normal measuring procedure to find out what that offset is in your case and then set it in your macro.

Have you tested and tuned stallguard Z probe on it's own already?

No the printer is in maintenance now.
I know the manual process but I want an automatic process

@pipersw said in Help for automatic Z offset with bltouch and Stallguard macro:

I know the manual process but I want an automatic process

I understand, but what I mean is, the stallguard Z probe will need to be calibrated so that you know what trigger height it will have. Your macro assumes it will be 0, but that's not likely to actually be the case.

[pipersw]

You are right. I will calibrate the z height.
