z probe not referenced
-
@axiom said in z probe not referenced:
;G1 H2 Z5 F6000 ; lift Z relative to current position
this line is a good idea to have
@axiom said in z probe not referenced:
G92 Z700 ; set Z position to axis maximum (you may want to adjust this)
this line should be removed.
And what value does your probe show as having on the status screen?

@axiom that shows that your probe is triggered already. what type of probe is it?
-
@jay_s_uk
a capacitive proximity sensor:

@axiom you may need to invert the signal
e.g.M558 P1 C"!zprobe.in"
but you should test it before trying to home with it -
@jay_s_uk
now the z-axis moves down instead of up when homing...but it responds to my hand and stops -
@axiom you need to invert the direction of your Z axis then. It should be negative movement going up and positive going down
-
@jay_s_uk And how do I do that?
-
@axiom Change the S value in each M569 for the Z drivers. If its 0 change it to 1 and vice versa
-
@jay_s_uk how do i know which ones are for the z-axis...since i connected two, i don't want them to work in opposite directions...that might break the motors
-
@axiom you've mapped the driver numbers in M584
-
@jay_s_uk you are super! it works... thanks for your patience!
