Installed SmartEffector unable to keep its horizon
-
easy fix rotate the effector by 60 degrees the arms need to be the same distance apart at both ends of them ie parallel to each other.

Douglas1957,
the arms need to be the same distance apart at both ends of them
that is in place. in other words before calibration effector is in the center and arm are as parallel as it is possible
also magnet polarity makes bottom parts of paired rods to attract each other… -
but your arms are not parallel to each other they need to be 55mm apart on the face that is towards each tower yours seem to come from the carriage on the tower to the short face on the effector instead of the wide space that they need to

You have the two rods from each tower going to two ball studs that are close to each other; whereas they should go to ball studs on either end of a long edge of the effector. This is what it should look like from the top:

Thank you David I thought That I may have confused myself then
PS Which hot end have you got on that ?
-
oh my god!! now its much stable. thanks!!!
UPD: i have added related picture and text to the WiKi. hope that is allowed :))

Its a very easy mistake to make and One I have seen before.

Yes I know that and I have 2 of them my Q re the hotend was aimed to the Pic that David uploaded as that is different but I suspect it may be from an early prototype and I was just Curious

Yes the image I posted was a prototype and didn't have the connectors fitted.

Thanks for Confirming that David guessed it was with the 3 hole mounting, was just curious in case you had been testing a different type of Hotend.
I also see that E3D Are putting the Duet heatsink style out to the wider public for beta testing and feedback!
