G29 on CoreXY does not move correctly

@techbutterfly said in G29 on CoreXY does not move correctly:
@fcwilt I mean, I can make one, but what goes in it?
Since you execute a plain G29 to create a heightmap, in mesh.g I put all of the commands needed to create the heightmap - which includes some commands that are often put in config.g, such as the M557.
At a minimum you could put
- the M557 command to specify the grid to be probe
- the G1 command(s) to move the probe to the center of the bed in preparation for setting the Z=0 Datum
- the G30 command to probe the bed and set the Z=0 Datum
- the G29 S1 command to actually create the height map
Before the M557 I include
- a G29 S2 command to be sure mesh bed compensation is off and will not have any unexpected side effects on the commands that follow
- a M290 R0 S0 command to cancel baby stepping also to avoid any side effects on the commands that follow
I actually have much more than that but it is because I make use of many macros to perform common actions (such as setting the Z=0 Datum) and I have the option of specifying different grid densities, via a global variable.

@fcwilt Thanks for that. I had started building a file, based on some research, and was about to post it here for critique, but now I see I need some other stuff. I'll get to adding those. You don't mention heating here, but I have that in mine (based on a rather lengthy discussion I read between you and someone else about their mesh.g file). If it doesn't belong there, let me know when I post my version.
I hope to also develop helpful macros but for now just need to get the machine working. Thanks again.

Generally you want to have the hotend and bed at printing temperature before creating the heightmap.
But I control those temps with the DWC Filament handling feature and different filaments have different temps.
It can also be educational to create a heightmap at room temp to compare it with a heightmap created at printing temps.
So I have no heating commands in my mesh.g but there certainly is nothing wrong with having them there if that suits the way you work.
But because I use dense grids when creating my heightmaps (200, 300, 400 points) I create the heightmaps as a separate step and not at the start of printing as many folks do. Then I load the existing heightmap at the start of printing. If you have a stable printer you can use the same heightmap for most printing.

Just FYI when changing axis min/max you can specify just X.

After I got the a-okay on my mesh.g file, I uploaded it to my machine. I'm trying to remember the sequence of events - I think I tried to run it, and might have gotten a message that I need to home first. I tried to home and the z probe didn't deploy and ended up crashing into the bed. I killed the power and then restarted. NOW several things aren't working right! X homes correctly - goes to the endstop, and then moves to X30 and resets X0. But any moves after that - homing Y, even just jogging the X axis - the carriage is moving at a diagonal, and the Y motor isn't moving at all. This is similar to my original problem, except now it's not just G29, it's all moves after the homex move.
I just restarted the printer and homed Y first - it homed just fine. Then I homed X, and now everything is screwed up again. There must be something screwy in my homex file. Here is the contents of it:
; homex.g ; called to home the X axis ; ; generated by RepRapFirmware Configuration Tool v3.3.10 on Tue May 10 2022 23:58:03 GMT-0500 (Central Daylight Time) G91 ; relative positioning G1 H2 Z5 F6000 ; lift Z relative to current position G1 H1 X-325 F2500 ; move quickly to X axis endstop and stop there (first pass) G1 X5 F6000 ; go back a few mm G1 H1 X-325 F360 ; move slowly to X axis endstop once more (second pass) G1 X30 F2500 ; move to left edge of bed M92 X0 ; set new X0 G1 H2 Z-5 F6000 ; lower Z again G90 ; absolute positioning -
Can you post your config.g? It sounds like you aren't in corexy mode, or maybe like a grub screw is loose on a motor pulley.
It's also possible your coordinate system is totally out of whack.
The assumption is that 0,0 is the front left corner.
-x moves to the left, +x moves to the right.
-y moves to the front, +y moves to the back.Based on your homex.g file the X endstop is on the left side, correct?
Is the Y endstop at the back? Stock D bot it is anyway. Which would be a positive Y move.
You should also do this motor test for corexy to ensure it's all configured correctly.
-
@phaedrux Yes, until this point with G29 everything moved correctly. X endstop is on the left. Y endstop is at the back (Y max). Everything moves in the right directions, homes in the right directions. I have calibrated e-steps for all three axes and the extruder. I have manually leveled the bed. I have set the z probe offset. I PID tuned the bed and hot end. I was all ready to do my first test prints, but when I ran G29 I had odd behavior where it was probing back and forth on a diagonal, although the Panel Due said it was moving only on the X axis, which seems like not-corexy movement. The Y motor was not turning at all, although it moved fine during the homing and when manually jogging.
I didn't have a mesh.g, so I created that, but now the movement is all off. Here's my config.g - maybe I screwed something up on it?

Okay, I can home Y if I home it first. Movement is correct. I can then home X, and it homes correctly. After that, the kinematics are all wrong - the Y motor doesn't turn at all, so all movements end up on a diagonal. If I home X first, then the kinematics are wrong, and I can't home Y.
Just to reiterate - prior to this, all movement was correct. I jogged the head all over the place while leveling the bed. It's only been since I created the mesh.g file and attempted a G29. Not saying that's what caused the problem - it's just the last change I made.
I have to go out of town for a day or two - I'll be back to work on this tomorrow night or the next.
Thanks for any help!

Nothing in your mesh.g is responsible for the change in behavior you are seeing.
It may be that your kinematics are simply wrong and what appears to be correct homing is caused by one of the steppers stalled at the end of travel so things appear to be correct.
When you get back we can verify if you kinematics are correct. While you have the M669 K1 that assumes certain stepper behavior. I use the other approach of specifying the matrix which controls motion which can adjust for motors that are not wired as expected.

@fcwilt Thanks! I look forward to working with you when I get back. I saw the stuff about defining a matrix but didn't understand it. Hope to learn something new when I'm back home again.

Just FYI.
G32 executes bed.g - which is intended to do bed leveling, not create the heightmap needed for mesh bed compensation.
What you have done will, of course, work but it is using bed.g in a somewhat unusual way.
Now as to you Core XY settings.
I would like you to do this from the DWC console:
- execute M564 H0 which will allow moving axes that are not yet homed
- jog X to the near the center of the bed
- jog Y to the near the center of the bed
- execute G92 X160 Y135 which will set the X and Y logical positions to appx halfway between axis min and max
- execute G90 which will set absolute move mode
- execute G1 X210 Y185 just to test a move command
- execute G1 X110 Y85 just to test another move command
Does the jogging move as expected?
Do the G1 commands move as expected?

Can you make a video of you homing the printer and running a mesh compnesation?
G28 G29
-
@fcwilt I ran the commands you said - everything moved as expected, both jogging and using G1 commands. X+ was to the right. Y+ was toward the back.
What should I do next?
As far as G32, bed.g, and G29, whatever I have is either the default or perhaps came along with something I copied from somewhere. Please feel free to tell me a more acceptable way to accomplish things like bed leveling or mesh compensation. There's definitely plenty I don't know.
-
Your homing files and config and mesh.g look alright to me. I don't see anything that would cause weird movement behaviour anyway.
-
@phaedrux To verify what I posted before, after doing the tests @fcwilt requested, I homed Y and tested the movement - everything was still fine. I then homed X and once again, the movement is now wrong. The Y motor no longer turns - it is locked in place, so it's not just dead, the controller thinks it's not supposed to turn. I don't know what to do next.

@techbutterfly said in G29 on CoreXY does not move correctly:
I ran the commands you said - everything moved as expected, both jogging and using G1 commands. X+ was to the right. Y+ was toward the back.
Just to be sure, did both of the G1 commands move on the diagonal and ended up at the correct XY position?
I know this is a pain but maybe if you made a video showing what happened during the tests I suggested we would see something that would give us a clue.
Right now I am somewhat baffled.
Thanks.
