inductive Z-probe problem after firmware upgrade

Phaedrux · 19 Sept 2022, 19:40

What do you have in your homing files?

@rubinkingma said in inductive Z-probe problem after firmware upgrade:

; Z probe
M558 P5 X0 Y0 Z1 ; Analog Z probe, also used for homing the Z axis
G31 X 28 Y12 Z0.4 P500 ; Set the probe height and threshold (put your own values here)

You should remove the old RRF2 commands.

Weird, when i dont it complains about "cant enable endstop".

Th0mpy · 19 Sept 2022, 19:43

@rubinkingma

Can you paste in your homeall.g and homez.g?

Sorry, what board are you using? Just to confirm the pins.

@phaedrux

Thank you for your reply, what part is RRF2 ?
I got to 3xx firmware today after running 1.19 since 2017

Used the configurator and while i could have dropped some old stuff in there looking for solutions i'm not at the point where i can see the difference between old and new config.

Ah, nevermind about the old config parts. I see now that it's two separate configs. I've edited your post to make it a bit clearer.

Can you send M122 and M98 P"config.g" in the console and copy and paste the results here?

@phaedrux

I see the issue.

In the homez.g file change this:

 G91 ; relative positioning
G1 H2 Z5 F600 ; lift Z relative to current position
G1 H1 Z-165 F1000 ; move Z down until the endstop is triggered (first pass)
G1 Z5 F1000 ; go back a few mm
G1 H1 Z-100 F360 ; move slowly to Z axis endstop once more (second pass)
G92 Z0 ; set Z position to axis minimum (you may want to adjust this)

to this

 G1 X150 Y150 F6000
G91 ; relative positioning
G1 H2 Z5 F600 ; lift Z relative to current position
G90
G30

Phaedrux · 19 Sept 2022, 19:51

Your homez.g file is still looking for an endstop. It needs to be changed to use G30 instead of a G1 H1 Z move in order to use the probe.

Your homeall.g is using both an endstop move AND a G30 to probe.

Here are the corrected files

@phaedrux
Stop replying so fast

But you're right, I missed the homeall.g error.

rubinkingma · 19 Sept 2022, 20:03

Thanks to you both!

So it works now, this or next week ill start printing again and see what else i can find to complain about.

This used to be my "quick and dirty" machine, and after a few years almost the only machine i use.

I never took the time to really make it print nicely because i had a E3D volcano on it with a 0.8 Nozzle.

Now with all these cool changes i want to dial it in with a 0.6 nozzle and make it a really nice machine.

Its a core XY "hypercube" remix with hiwin rails for the bed.
It should be able to make very nice prints if i just spend some time with it
