BLTouch giving error

@terhart post your homez file
M401 and M402 should just be M401 and M402 with no P0 at the end

@terhart @jay_s_uk M401 and M402 should be able to take a P parameter; see https://docs.duet3d.com/User_manual/Reference/Gcodes#m401-deploy-z-probe

However, this sounds like a bug, and that it is looking for deployprobe0.g, and when it does not find it, it is not switching to deployprobe.g. I've marked this as a bug for @dc42 to check.

Did you modify your deploy and retract macros to remove the P0 from the M280 commands?

terhart

@Phaedrux Yes, I did. But unfortunately it didnt solve anything. Error stays.
Thanks for your help.

@Phaedrux Next to my previous remark: This is exact error text that is generated:

M98 P"0:/macros/BLTouch Retract"
Error: Bad command: probe

There is no error on the deploy macro.
Also, if I initiate the command "M280!P0 S90" or "M280!P0 S10" the BLTouch deploys and retract without an error.
The error only comes on M402.

Thanks.

deployprobe.g and retractprobe.g must be in the sys folder for M401 and M402 to work. They must be named that way too.

@terhart said in BLTouch giving error:

M98 P"0:/macros/BLTouch Retract"
Error: Bad command: probe

We'll need to see the contents of macro file "BLTouch Retract" to diagnose that.

@dc42
Hi, thanks for helping me.
This is all that is in the BL Touch Retract file:

M402

If I just enter M402 on the command line, a "probe" error is raised.

Best regards,

retractprobe.g deployprobe.g

Try placing these files in your sys folder.
