G29S1 not loading during print and G32 not leveling properly

@jay_s_uk said in G29S1 not loading during print and G32 not leveling properly:
Heightmaps get unloaded whenever G28 is ran.
Why do you think that?
I have not found that to be the general case.

Hi,
Your current bed.g has a single G30 before the four G30 Pn commands.
The G30 should occur AFTER the four G30 Pn commands.
And since bed.g is part of the bed leveling process normally you don't load your height map in it.

I'm still having an issue where when I send G32 my 4 corners are not compensated correctly it only moves the front right side, does the have to do because 3 of my Z steppers are connected to the duex 5 and the 4th one is connected to the mainboard.

post the output of the G32 command

so I did some modification to my M558 code I added new parameters to see if I can get some more accuracy
NEW CODE:
; Z-Probe M558 P1 C"zprobe.in" H5 R.02 A11 S2 F120 T6000 ; set Z probe type to unmodulated and the dive height + speeds G31 P500 X5 Y29 Z0.77 ; set Z probe trigger value, offset and trigger height M557 X50:450 Y50:450 S40 ; define mesh gridand here's a screenshot of my new heightmap

Thanks in advance.

Perhaps an example will help.
With A=10 and S=0.01 the firmware will probe each point up to 10 times trying to get two consecutive readings that are within 0.01.
If after 10 times two such readings do not occur then all 10 readings will be averaged.
I use those values for A and S and they work well.

Thank you for explaining it. I do have some questions changing the P500 parameter to something else may be like 525 will it help to get it lot more accurate. As you see my map it’s not leveled at all

Changing the P parameter is not likely to make much difference.
It could be that your bed is just not very flat.
What is it made of?

Aluminum 6 mm thick I know the bed is not 100% I would say about 70% I have some twist In some spots

Is it cast aluminum tool plate?

No it’s aluminum 6061

If you have the resources you may want to upgrade.
This is from one of my suppliers:
Cast Aluminum Plates have a precision machined surface for superior flatness, flat within .015'', and +/- .005'' thickness tolerance,

If you have the means you might be able to bash it into flatness, or at least take out the worst of the peaks and valleys.

bash it into flatness
I think machinists might cringe at that.

@fcwilt At least I didn't suggest parking a car on it. ..Yet

I hadn't thought about that approach - good idea.
Maybe something with treads - like a tank.
Frederick
-
@Phaedrux I'm going to drive on top of it and see if that will make it flat

I was thinking a carbon fiber sheet plate
