        @campeancalin said in G29 failing height map for a core XY config with fixed bed:

        M208
        Axis limits X0.0:600.0, Y0.0:600.0, Z0.0:525.0

        Wow. That is big.

        As a test could you do this:

        • set the Z=0 datum, positioning the probe at 300, 300
        • create a test height map using M557 X290:310 Y290:310 P3. This would be a 9 point map including 300,300
        • use G29 S1 to load that map and see if you get the error

        This is just for testing, it is not a height map you would ever actually use for printing.

        Thanks.

          Warning: the height map has a substantial Z offset. Suggest use Z-probe to establish Z=0 datum, then re-probe the mesh.
          9 points probed, min error 0.110, max error 0.190, mean 0.152, deviation 0.024

            The M557 command should be included in the config.g file?

              @all I mean, once all is good with the mesh probe, one should define the M557 within the config.g file? So so the start /end scripts within the slicer would remain relative?

                Yes M557 should be in config.g

                Please post your config.g, homeall.g, homez.g, bed.g files.
                Also post the results of M122 and M98 P"config.g".
                And your slicer start gcode.

                That will give us enough information to help you.

                    in homez you should change the position of the probe to the center of the bed before doing G30.

                    G1 X20 Y37 F2400 ; go to first probe point
                    G30            ; home Z by probing the bed
                    

                    Error: bad grid definition: Too many grid points; suggest increase spacing to 22.8mm

                    M557 X15:470 Y15:470 S20

                    As the error says, your M557 has too many points. Change the spacing to at least S22.8 to stay within the limit of 441 points.

                    Otherwise that looks ok. Then you just need to modify your slicer start gcode so that it has a G28 and then G29 S1 to load the heightmap.

                      Warning: the height map has a substantial Z offset. Suggest use Z-probe to establish Z=0 datum, then re-probe the mesh.

                      So you did something like this:

                      To create the test height map:

                      G1 X290 Y290 ; position probe at bed center
                      G30; probe the bed and set the Z=0 datum
                      M557 X290:310 Y290:310 P3 ; set the probing grid
                      G29; probe the bed and create the height map

                      To load the test height map:

                      G1 X290 Y290 ; position probe at bed center
                      G30; probe the bed and set the Z=0 datum
                      G29 S1; load the existing height map

                          Bellow you have the slicer star g code:

                          G28 ; home all axes

                            After the G28 and before G29 S1 , there has to be the G30 command?

                              Hi,

                              It depends on what homeall.g does.

                              I don't use my Z probe for homing Z so I need to use G30 by itself before creating the height map and again before loading the height map.

                              The probe point for the G30 must be the same in both cases.

                              Your homez.g file uses G1 X20 Y37 F2400. I strongly suggest you use the center of the bed for G30.

                              Now your G31 command has the offsets of X=10 and Y=10.

                              Are you those values are correct? That puts the Z probe very close to the hotend, closer than my probe could be.

                              In any case, assuming the offsets are correct the command to position for G30 would be G1 X290 Y290 F2400.


                              With that change then as long as you use G28 before creating the height and loading the height map it should work fine.

                                    OK those offsets looks better.

                                    Assuming the center of the bed is X300, Y300 the command to position for G30 would be G1 X280 Y263.

                                    To determine those values I did that math: X280 = X300 - X20 and Y263 = Y300 - Y37

                                    And I assume you are going to do the G29 S1 somewhere else?

                                        However I'm not really too sure about G29 S1 in the start script , if I already call for G 29 S1 in homez.g

                                          @campeancalin said in G29 failing height map for a core XY config with fixed bed:

                                          However I'm not really too sure about G29 S1 in the start script , if I already call for G 29 S1 in homez.g

                                          I do things a little different from many folks.

                                          For instance I have a macro (map_create.g) to create the height map. It performs all the commands needed to insure the map is correct. It does not depend on anything else (like config.g or homeall.g) to have done some important commands first. So when I run the macro I know that height map is created correctly.

                                          Likewise I have a macro (map_load.g) to load the height map. And like the macro described above it does not depend on anything else. It does assume the height map has been created.

                                          As you know most slicers can execute code prior to starting a print and after finishing a print.

                                          Again I do not rely on the slicer to do everything that needs to be done to start or end a print.

                                          Instead I have two macros (print_begin.g and print_end.g) that are invoked by the slicer.

                                          One of the many things that print_begin.g does is to invoke map_load.g

                                          If I desired I could have it instead invoke map_create.g if I wished to create the height map at the start of every print.

                                            @fcwilt Can you share an example of each of the macros you specify? Just so I have an idea where to start from.
