      At first: i am starting after years again with configuring a delta printer - i am a little bit rusty...
      I changed my controller board to Duet2 ethernet - copied all parameters to the new configuration.

      Homing the towers works fine. With G91-command i am able to move the towers and they move as i expect. endstops are correct connected. wirering is fine - heating bed and nozzle works. Fans are working. Z-Probe (IR-Probe) seems to work while triggering with a sheet of paper.

      Now my problem: Sending an G1 Z100 nothing happens. Sending the same via WebControl nothing happens. Sending G32 for starting "Auto calibration" i get quiet fast an error: "Probe was not triggered during probe move" - the error is correct, because nothing moves.
      next steps in configuration should be z-probe, but without movement... my problem...

      i think its a stupid little thing - but i am blind... maybe there is an errorlog outside the "<> Console" to get the message... or i´ve forgotten to configure something...

      I need your help and i found nothing in this forum about it (or i am blind again... 🙂 )


      Board and firmware:
      RepRapFirmware for Duet 2 WiFi/Ethernet version 3.3 (2021-06-15 21:44:54) running on Duet Ethernet 1.02 or later

        Are you sure your endstops are on the low end?

        ; Endstops
        M574 X1 S1 P"xstop"                                    ; configure switch-type (e.g. microswitch) endstop for low end on X via pin xstop

        M574 Z1 S1 P"zstop"                                    ; configure switch-type (e.g. microswitch) endstop for low end on Z via pin zstop
        

        My delta has them on the high end and I'm configured like this:

        ; Endstops
        M574 X2 S1 P"xstop"                                     ; configure active-high endstop for high end on X via pin xstop

        M574 Z2 S1 P"zstop"                                     ; configure active-high endstop for high end on Z via pin zstop

          @alankilian : thanks, this is a bug 🙂 I have changed it to your code.

          ...but the problem is unchanged.

              @zapp3r said in No moving printerhead after homing my delta:

              thanks, this is a bug I have changed it to your code.

              If it was homing with the original configuration - switches set at low end - with the switches actually at the top??

              You presumably need to reverse all the motor directions as well??

                @rjenkinsgb : to check the direction: the endstops are on the top.

                after homing:
                G91
                G1 H2 X-10
                X-Tower moves 10 down

                is this correct?

                Homing is in the correct direction -> it´s going up to trigger the endstop

                Interesting: it works in both configurations of the endstops.

                  Yep, just tried it on my delta (Kossell) and that moves one side down by 10mm.

                  What is the displayed Z position after homing?

                  Edit - try
                  G90
                  G1 Z100

                    @rjenkinsgb: no movement after G1 Z100 - should go down to 100mm above bed. there ist no aktivity - even no sound of the steppers (e.g. to high frequency, or something like that).

                    G1 Z100 F300 for a slow motion does nothing too.

                    only movements in relative mode while adressing the towers

                      @alankilian: thanks for your config. I checked it and i´ve seen no significant changes - ok, i use two tools with offsets - nothing is 4 me quite relevant in the overview.
                      tomorrow i will copy your configuration on my printer to see if it is moving - maybe an error around the 2nd tool or with the DuePanel.

                      i will report

                            @alankilian: your config works fine! movements are possible as it should be.
                            in my next break i will replace part by part to identify the error - coming soon with the solution 🙂
                            (...or with the core of my problem 🙂 🙂 🙂 )

                              @alankilian @rjenkinsgb @Phaedrux :
                              the solution is ultra stupid 🙂

                              it is my mismatch between radius and diameter... 😵

                              Orignal line:

                              M665 R717.765 L682 B500 H600                           ; Set delta radius, diagonal rod length, printable radius and homed heigh
                              

                              the length of the rod does not fit to the printer radius!

                              the correct config line is:

                              M665 R358.883  L682 B250 H600                           ; Set delta radius, diagonal rod length, printable radius and homed heigh
                              

                              Here is an error message quite helpful - from check perspective quiet easy to calculate.
                              Maybe this is possible to include while interpreting the config.g.

                              Many thanks to all for helping in this forum 💪 👍
