Duet 2 wifi Mesh compensation

You dont need G29 S1 after G29, but i think its not doing anything bad as well. G29 probes mesh and activates it already, so no need for otherG29 S1.

@Runar What firmware version are you running? Send M115 in the DWC console and post response.

You shouldn't need the second G29 S1; G29 on it's own will probe the bed, save the height map in a file on the SD card, and activate bed compensation. You can check this by sending M408 S3, which shows the compensation in use in the report:

M408 S3

You can send M408 S3 while printing to check (I just did!)

Okay, thanks I try when I get home. Stupid question though, you say "save the height map in a file on the SD card" I do not use any SD card my heightmap.csv is in folder / sys. Is there a difference?

My Firmware 2,04

Ian means G29 saves the height map in file on SD card. And yes, you have SD card in Duet, the / sys folder is on it. Without SD card Duet will not work, assuming its Duet2 (wifi, ethernet or maestro, doesnt matter)

Thank you all, now I understand. I will check everything when I´m at home.

You can also see if compensation is active in the results of M122

Make sure your Z "jerk" (M566) isn't set too low, if it is, the motors may not move at all.

If the Z zerk is too low the Z motors will still move, but the X and Y may pause to give the Z axis time to finish the move, resulting in jerky movement.

You know, I thought I was speaking from experience...

But I'll be damned if I can replicate my findings now.

@gtj0 I can't speak to any variation between 2.x behaviour and 3.x behaviour.

Thanks for confirming my worst nightmare... it's just me.

Used this to solve my issue with my Predator upgrade. Set Z jerk to 1500 and poof, problem solved.
