Smarteffector problems with 3.11 ( update from 2.04)

This should be the valid entry in config.g for the smart effector
M558 P8 H4 F1000 T12000 R0.2 S0.02 A5 C"zprobe.in+zprobe.mod"Run each line individually
G28 G30 X0 Y0 G32 M500 This will home the machine, probe the centre of the bed to determine 0, then run delta calibration and finally save the results.
Make sure you have M501 at the end of your config.g -

G28 reports only an "Operation has been cancelled" error

@fragle sounds like you have homing issues then as M558 doesn't interact with homing (G28)
-
I have found the mistake, there is an optical endstop with some loose contact.
now it .Changed to a news one , and your settings are working.
But now if i try to run a mesh compensation ( G29), the noozle drives down and then stay around 10mm over the heatplate and stops.
If i use the old additional Setting for the Z-probe, than the print head crashes into the Heatplate

@fragle can you post your current complete config please. Which delta is it as well?

Don't load the heightmap in config.g. It should only ever be loaded or freshly created after probing the bed with G30 to set Z0.
What do you have in bed.g and homedelta.g?

@fragle ok
Few issues I can see if your config.
M350 only supports Interpolation of microsteps at x16, so I suggest you change back to x16 and the steps per mm to 80.
Secondly, your endstop settings are incorrect. You have them set as being on the low end when infact they are on the high end. The correct settings areM574 X2 S1 P"xstop" M574 Y2 S1 P"ystop" M574 Z2 S1 P"zstop" Your G31 should have z set as -0.1
Here is my predator config for reference https://github.com/jaysuk/Anycubic-Predator-Duet/tree/SmartEffectorRRF3
-
@fragle your homing file is also incorrect as it doesn't move the towers down before trying to home again.
This is what it should contain.G91 ; relative positioning G1 H1 X470 Y470 Z470 F1800 ; move all towers to the high end stopping at the endstops (first pass) G1 X-5 Y-5 Z-5 F1800 H2 ; go down a few mm G1 H1 X10 Y10 Z10 F360 ; move all towers up once more (second pass) G1 Z-5 F6000 ; move down a few mm so that the nozzle can be centred G90 ; absolute positioning G1 X0 Y0 F6000 ; move X+Y to the centre -
I ve adaped my config to your settings, now G32 is working well, but with the mesh compensation i am getting an G29 error Z probe readings are not consistent
At G29 the printhead goes down correctly, make some soft touches to the print plate and after around 4 or 5 point he stand still.
M557 set mesh parameter said 175 radius and 16 spacing
-
oh i forgot, i have an whambam printplate over the normal print plate

Might need sensitivity adjusted for the smart effector? Higher probe speed?
-
@fragle you've probably got play in your system with the default arms. Try increasing the S value on M558 to something like 0.05
-
I will try the suggestions today, but i do not thing, that it is an hardware problem, because the system is running on fw 2.04 without any problems.
-
small update
if i use G32, than i am getting
Calibrated 8 factors using 16 points, (mean, deviation) before (-0.004, 0.067) after (-0.000, 0.053)
Repeating calibration because deviation is too high (0.053mm)
too many auto calibration attempts -
@fragle so change the S value to 0.06 (or even slightly higher)
Currently, any value above 0.05 (originally 0.02) will cause it to fail.
Its due to the sloppy eyes they use on the rods on the predator. -
G32 is now successful after the second run
I have set the sensitivtiy to 10 for the smart effector, but i am wondering, why the display of the Z probe switches to "1000" around every third contact to the print plate.
The other 2 hits, there was no "1000" release on the display ( even tough the nozzle hits the plate and withdraw correct.
-
@fragle DWC generally doesn't catch up enough to fully display every probe. If it works, don't worth about it.
-
I have crosschecked the predator with my old 2.04 settings, everything is working fine.
Back to 3.1.1
Now i can run G32 and G29 without error.
I i try to print something i use as start script
G28
G32During the G32 from the gcode i am getting always an
Error: Z Probe already triggered at atrt of probing modeI have reset the sensififity to 131:131 ( default setting)
i ve tried some configs starting from here https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Test_and_calibrate_the_Z_probe to some hints in the forum, but nothing worked.
