Plan to switch from normal steppers to 1HCL+ magnetic encoders
-
@dc42 Something to ask
When you do manual tuning with the plugin after it is finished.
How to save the tuned parameters?
Do I need to enter them in config.g in the 569.1 command? -
@martin7404 yes you need to put the new parameters in the M569.1 command in config.g.
-
@dc42 does this manual tooling look OK?
This is what I cma up after following the tuning guide
-
this is the second motor

@dc42 Everything works but with 0.8 nozzle, I have to run pretty slow and there is too much vibration in closed-loop mode, so I switched to assisted open loop
I get a lot of these
Do you mean R value in M569.1 ? -
@martin7404 From time to time, it pauses due to these errors, and when I resume,e there is a slight layer shift
For now, for the big nozzle, I am switching to open loop with high current on the motors.
And will use a closed loop when printing with a smaller nozzle
May be in the future I will switch the motors to 1.8 and will test tuning them again -
@martin7404 the warning .messages mean that the M569.1 E value has been exceeded.
If the motors are noisy in closed loop mode, reduce the D term. If they tend to oscillate, reduce the R term or increase the D term.
-
@dc42 In a closed loop, D is 0, and still, for a 0.8 nozzle, I tend to run at 30-40 mm/s, and at that speed, it is very noisy. The assisted open loop leads to shifts. Unfortunately, these parts are in production, and I just went back to open loop with reduced Acceleration and higher motor current. We will deal with the setup after this job is finished
-
@martin7404 After some time, printing with the machine, system started to mismatch the 3 Z motors during print
I thought one of my motors is going bad.
Still, after some testing, I found out that if I switch the A and B motors to the main board, completely eliminating the closed-loop boards, it works as before. So, for now, I am removing all HCL closed-loop electronics and writing off the time spent.
I will probably use the hardware in a future project. The machine is needed for production printing, and we remain the "Slow ABS printer" -
@martin7404 did you try reducing the M569.1 R term? If so, what was the result?
-
@dc42, not good, the sensorless homing is not working onthe lower R setting. I believe the main problem is that I use 0.9 steppers, which do not allow me to properly tune the motors in closed loop
-
@martin7404 the M569.1 parameters only affect closed loop and assisted open loop modes, so they should have no effect when performing sensorless homing in open loop mode.
Getting 0.9deg motors working well in closed loop mode can be challenging. In particular, the encoder calibration is more critical and the maximum speed will be lower.
