M556: Adjustment doesn't seem to be doing anything
-
Hi, all. I purchased Vector3D's excellent Calilantern and have used it to tune most of my printers. I have four Duet-based machines: three Duet 3 Mini 5+ boards and one Duet 2 Wifi + DueX5 (Railcore).
On all three Duet 3 Mini 5+ machines, I was able to run the calibration file, fill out the spreadsheet to get the M556 adjustment, apply it, and observe an immediate improvement. The Duet 2 system seems to be categorically ignoring this value, and I'm out of ideas on what to look at.
I started with this system on 2.05 and have manually upgraded it all the way to 3.5.2 in the hopes that it would resolve this issue. I've tried putting in very silly values for M556, verifying that they're in place by running the bare M556, running a file, and verifying that the M556 is still in place after the file... but the printed file doesn't change. It's always roughly the same amount of 0.56mm off on a 100mm distance.
If you have any ideas on what could be causing this, please let me know. I'm also very happy to run tests and be wrong about things.

@itsthejoker said in M556: Adjustment doesn't seem to be doing anything:
very silly values for M556
What do you consider a silly value?
The starting values in your config.g are quite conservative overall.
-
@Phaedrux They're much larger than the (working) values for the other machines — what is a better value to try? X5 Y5? I want to test but don't want to break anything.
-
@Phaedrux Update: I tried
M556 S100 X5 Y5 Z5and there's a definite visible change, so I guess my changes were too conservative. I'll keep tuning. Thanks for the bump in the right direction. -
Jerk in the 500 to 1500 range would be pretty common I think. You're on the incredibly low end with 5.
