Keep losing Z offset
-
Awesome!
-
@Turbo It appears to still be an issue. I lost Z offset after last night's print. The settings are still there in config.g. Simply saving the file again without any changes restores the Z offset. Something is resetting my G31 numbers.
-
What firmware are you using? What duet?
Can you post your config.g and homeall?
What do you have in your slicer start and end gcode? -

Hi,
You can always reset in your "slicer start code" to be sure it is correct.

You've got g32 in your home all. What is in bed.g?
-
@Phaedrux Bed.g:
; bed.g
; called to perform automatic bed compensation via G32
;
; generated by RepRapFirmware Configuration Tool v2.1.8 on Thu Feb 20 2020 16:55:51 GMT-0800 (Pacific Standard Time)
M561 ; clear any bed transform
G29 ; probe the bed and enable compensation -
I'm no expert with firmware but comparing your homeall to mine, I have a G90 before calling any G30 commands...maybe an issue with relative vs absolute positioning???
This is my homeall.g
G91 ; relative positioning
G1 Z5 F6000 S2 ; lift Z relative to current position
G1 S1 X-350 Y350 F1800 ; move quickly to X or Y endstop and stop there (first pass)
G1 S1 X-350 ; home X axis
G1 S1 Y350 ; home Y axis
G1 X5 Y5 F600 ; go back a few mm
G1 S1 X-10 ; move slowly to X axis endstop once more (second pass)
G1 S1 Y-10 ; then move slowly to Y axis endstop
G90 ; absolute positioning
G1 X170 Y160 F6000 ; go to first bed probe point and home Z
G30 ; home Z by probing the bed -
@JamesM Thanks, I'll try that.
-
@JamesM That one change threw the homing off. I reverted back to the original settings. Thanks anyway for the suggesstion.

@Weevil said in Keep losing Z offset:
I don't know what happened but now I keep losing my z offset each time the printer is homed, restarted or ends a print. I can't make sense of the thing.
What exactly do you mean by this? Do you mean that the first layer isn't good? Do you mean that G31 is literally blank?
@Weevil said in Keep losing Z offset:
But the head is too close to the bed now. I don't know what happened.
Head crash? Loose print head? Probe mount shifted?
I'd recommend removing G32 from your homeall. All it does is clear the current transform and then runs mesh compensation. May be overkill to re probe the entire bed every time you homeall. You could use G29 S1 instead at the end of homeall which would load a saved heightmap.
G31 P500 X-38 Y0 Z0.75
Change the P500 to P25 to make the BLTouch trigger a bit more sensitive.

@Phaedrux I'll try that. Thanks.
