Error: Pin 'zstop' is not free
Warning: Heater 1 appears to be over-powered. If left on at full power, its temperature is predicted to reach 558C

Error: Pin 'zstop' is not free
Is something broken on the board or is it a config setting?

No I think that's because your zstop pin is already been used when you run M98 P"config.g"

0:/macros/Probe_Scripts/activate_z_switch.g
M574 Z0 P"nil" ; no Z endstop switch, free up Z endstop input
M558 P5 C"zstop" H5 F400 T3000 ;Z Probe connector to Z endstop

This macro gets called and uses zstop. And when you send M98 config.g it tries to use zstop again in your m574 command, but it's already in use from that macro.

@joe92 said in Error: Probe already triggered at start of probing move:

have this error message when homing the z axis.

Can you post your homing files and bed.g/mesh.g files as well?

What is the order of operations that gets you to the error message?

Turn on the printer and press homeall in DWC?

Just trying to understand the flow of gcode commands.

However, if it's worked for 500 hours without issue up until now with the same config, and the same config works on your other printer, then I have to think it's a hardware issue. Most likely with the probe itself or with it's wiring.

joe92

@phaedrux
Yes, home all is the first thing I do, but I have now installed the duet from the other printer and everything works. I completely erased the board with the defect and wrote it with the latest software, but the error is still there in the other printer

Phaedrux

can you tell me/show me the wiring for your probe?

Can you grab some photos of the board with the problem?

joe92

@phaedrux

joe92

@phaedrux I can take the photos after work

joe92

found the fault in the cable to the z switch. a broken wire has trigged the z stop
