      @obiwan2print said in BLtouch and Railcore 300ZL problems:

      M574 X1 Y1 Z0 S1 ; BLtouch used to home Z
      M558 P9 X0 Y0 Z1 H5 F50 T6000 A5 S0.02 H5 ; Bltouch probe type
      G31 X3.0 Y40.8 Z2.104 P25 ; Probe offsets

      This syntax is for RRF2, not RRF3. The lines provided by @fcwilt are what you'll need to use for RRF3. Your deployprobe.g and retractprobe.g will need to be updated as well.

      Duet 2 WiFi/Ethernet version 3.0 running on Duet WiFi 1.02 or later + DueX5

      Update your firmware to 3.3.

      https://github.com/Duet3D/RepRapFirmware/releases/download/3.3/Duet2and3Firmware-3.3.zip

      Upload this zip file to the system tab in DWC.

      You can check if it's all applied correctly by sending M122 afterwards. You can also check your config.g for other syntax errors by sending M98 P"config.g"

        @phaedrux what commands should be in the updated version of deployprobe.g and retractprobe.g ?

            M280 P0 S90 ; retract BLTouch

            M280 P0 S10 ; deploy BLTouch

            Note the P0

                @phaedrux Now I can't get the Z axis to home. The BLtouch probe lowers and the print head moves but the print plate Z axis does not move. It also says the S commands are old and should be H command. Any suggestions on how to resolve this problem?

                  @obiwan2print I am using the G28 Z command to try to home the axis or the home button in the console.

                    Please cut-and-paste your config.g, homeall.g and homez.g files using the </> tag.

                    Thanks.

                    Also you can just change the S parameter in the G1 S# commands to G1 H#.

                            The problem with using a Z probe to home Z is that you need to move to a fixed XY position.

                            To do that X and Y have to be homed first.

                            Which means G28 will work (since you home all in the order XYZ) but G28 Z may not work.

                            That's one of the reasons I don't home with a Z probe but install a Z endstop as well as the Z probe.

                                I think you should probably generate a new config from the online tool so you can see what the proper heater setup format looks like in RRF3.

                                    @paulhew thanks for this help and information. Still trouble shooting the Z axis configurations and movement. Hope to resolve those issues soon.

                                      @fcwilt When I use the G28 Z command the nozzle goes to the back right corner and stops with the BLtouch located off the print platform. I would like to move the nozzle in the negative Y direction in order to have the BLtouch on the print platform. Any suggestion on how accomplish this task? I tried changing the G31 Y offset value in the config.g but it still homes to the back location when using G28 Z.

                                        When jogging the axes using the jog buttons in the DWC does each axis move in the correct direction?

                                          The position it goes to is defined in homez.g. If it's not going where you want it, you need to edit that file.
