      Hi,

      I don't see anything obvious there.

      From the DWC console execute M122 and post the results.

      Also execute M98 P"config.g" and let us know if there are any warnings or errors reported.

      Thanks.

        I am getting a spam error when trying to post M122 output to the forum. Is there a work around?

          Change the file extension to .g perhaps?

            I am going break things up into a few posts to see what's getting caught by the filter.

            ~~M98 P"config.g"
            HTTP is enabled on port 80
            FTP is enabled on port 21
            TELNET is enabled on port 23~~

                For some reason my Y axis will not respond to changes in the config.g file. When I print a calibration cube that side always comes out the same.

                What exactly does this mean? I'm not sure what you're describing. Photo of the results? What are you expecting to happen? What are you trying to change?

                  I've given you a few upvotes, so hopefully it won't bug you about spam as much. Might also help to take a pause for 10 minutes and try and create a single post again with all the copy and paste. Multiple posts in rapid succession is likely to trigger it.

                      No matter what I do with the y axis variable when printing a calibration cube I get 20.55mm from that side.
                      Using setting like this yields the same results:

                        Where did you get those values? They are a bit unusual.

                        Perhaps you could restore the X and Y values to the theoretical values and using...

                        M579 X1.0 Y1.0 Z1.0 ; scaling (values are determined by measuring test object)

                        to scale the size of the objects printed? Values of 1.0, as shown, produce no scaling.

                          Looks like the solid doodle uses MXL belts and 17 tooth pulleys for an approximate steps per mm of 88.

                            Never heard of MXL belts or 17 tooth pulleys - new facts to stuff into my old brain.

                            One thing I don't quite understand is why the X and Y steps/mm (whatever they actually should be) would in practice be different.

                            What is the source of the variation between X and Y?

                            Thanks.

                              Well Solid Doodle made some funny choices. (MXL, 17 tooth, etc) so who knows what else is funky in there. Product of the times I suppose.

                              As for why they would be so different here in this case and why the steps per mm isn't having an effect, I wonder if it's something mechanical. Slippage or something. Loose grub screw?
