[1.21RC3] Homeall don't work any more
-
Hi there,
since i updated my Firmware Today my Printer cann't home it self anymore because of that:
On Cartesian and CoreXY printers, normal G0 and G1 moves are no longer allowed before the corresponding axes have been homed. In particular, if your homex.g, homey.g and homeall.g files raise Z a little at the start and lower it at the end, you will need to add the S2 parameter to those G1 Z moves. Otherwise the G1 Z move will be refused unless Z has already been homed and the homing macro will be terminated.
I tryed to set the S2 Parameter but i got no sucess for my homeall.g
My single home Commands work (homex/y/z.g).Here is my homeall.g

Is it PLS possible to deactivate that S2 Parameter and let me do what i what with my Axis even if they are not homed? -
DC42: I think a new gcode to "allow unhomed moves" would be nice, similar to "M302: Allow cold extrudes".
-
the move away commands must now contain S2 (things like G1 X30)
-
@kazolar For the X and Y you mean?

Did it already this is why there are S2 Commands in the GCode.
Pls explain what you wanna say. -
I have a CoreXY so sending any movements using S2 for X and Y won't result to a movement on a single axis.
Instead, even without having any axis homed, I still use S1 ie. G1 S1 X10
I only use S2 for the Z as described in the notes.I don't know if this is the correct way but I won't exceed any limits
My home all script is as shown below:
G91 ; relative positioning G1 S2 Z5 F1000 ; lift Z relative to current position ; << Home XY >> G1 S1 X-305 Y-305 F6000 ; move quickly to X or Y endstop and stop there (first pass) G1 S1 X-305 ; home X axis G1 S1 Y-305 ; home Y axis G1 S1 X5 Y5 F1000 ; go ahead a few mm G1 S1 X-10 F800 ; go back to X endstop slower this time G1 S1 Y-10 F800 ; go back to Y endstop slower this time G90 ; << Home Z >> M98 Phomez.g and this is my Z homing:
G91 ; relative positioning G1 S2 Z5 F1000 ; Lift nozzle G90 ; absolute positioning m401 ; or M98 Pdeployprobe.g deploy mechanical Z probe G91 ; relative positioning G1 S1 Z-500 F1000 ; Lower bed fast G1 S2 Z5 F1000 ; Lift bed fast G90 M402 ; or M98 Pretractprobe.g to retract mechanical Z probe ;<<< Probe Bed >>> G30 ; Probe at current XY G91 ; relative positioning G1 S2 Z5 F150 ; lift Z 5 mm G90 ; absolute positioning -
In your homeall script, this line:
G1 S1 X5 Y5 F1000 ; go ahead a few mm
probably won't work because X and Y are already homed at that point. But as they are homed, you can omit the S parameter completely from that line.
In your homez script, the only line where it's essential to have the S2 parameter is the first G1 line. After that the Z axis is homed, so G1 commands without the S parameter will work too.

Well spotted! Thanks

Can you please explain me in DETAIL what i did wrong or even missed?
//EDIT:
Updated my first Post to my current homeall.g -
How does homing behave now, with your modified homeall.g file?

This is what it does:

1. Why are you using G1 S3 xcommands for homing, instead of G1 S1 commands?
2. Which firmware were you using before the upgrade?
3. If you position the head near the centre of the bed, then send G91, do subsequent G1 S1 moves make the head move in the correct direction? e.g. G1 S1 X10 should move the head 10mm in the +X direction, assuming the X endstop isn't triggered.

1. I use G1 S3 to home the axis without Endstop.
Can i use S1 instead?2. Before 1.21RC2
3. I will test this.

If you mean you want to home the X and Y axes using stall detection, you should still use G1 S1 commands. It is in the M574 command that you use S3 to select stall detection endstops.

If i try S1 instead it dosen't detect a collision anymore.
With S3 it does.I tested you're 3. Point and it moves like it should in the right Direction.
