      The message means that root-mean-square average height error at the probe points was 0.108mm before that auto calibration, and is predicted to be 0.107mm afterwards. So that auto calibration run was not able to improve the calibration significantly.

      That is still a significant calibration error. See https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Calibrating_a_delta_printer#Section_Make_sure_your_build_is_accurate for some possible causes.

        Significant? What's good number ratio?

        I've checked the parallelism of the towers.
        I replaced the plastic corners with aluminum corners
        and checked the angles.
        I've checked the lengths of 2020 profiles, top and bottom,
        they are all the same within 0,1mm.
        I've checked the spacing between the towers, --top, middle and bottom, they are all the same within 0,1mm (using a 69,96cm dial caliper).

        I've checked the angle between the bed and the towers, 90°.
        I've replaced the Heim joints with Smart-Effector/Hayden mag-joints.

        I don't know what else to do? Maybe the delta-radius is still wrong or maybe I don't understand the calibration process yet? I'm starting to believe that this AnyPubic delta is snake-bit.

        Thanks in advance

          @3mm can you post your bed.g file and the M665 and M666 lines from your config.g and also what is the length of your hand rods (as marked on the stickers on them)

            Hi, thanks.

            Delta config:
            Originally AnyPubic kossel linear plus, but virtually everything has been replaced, except steppers, belt, top-of-tower end-stop-sw's & 2020 profiles.

            DUET3D-EtherNet
            Smart-Effector + authentic E3D V6 HotEnd

            SRD-100, 100Vdc @100A SSR for hot bed switching.
            RepRapFirmware - Duet 2-E v1.21

            I scotch taped the labels so they can't fall-off:
            6 rods, grouped by pairs:

            288.13
            288.12

            288.12
            288.12

            288.11
            288.11

            config.g:
            M665 R139.7 L288.12 B111.76 H215.9 ; Set delta radius, diagonal rod length, printable radius & homed height
            M666 X0 Y0 Z0 ; Put your endstop adjustments here, or let auto calibration find them

            Thanks

                Hi,

                Perhaps I should also mention that when I run "Mesh Grid Compensation" web-control 'preset', that while it does generate a bed map, the graphic display depicts only the axis and grid overlay with no measurements??

                bed.g (text information removed):

                M561 ; clear any bed transform

                ; Probe the bed at 6 peripheral and 3 halfway points, and perform 3-factor auto compensation.

                  yep change the S3 on the last G30 line to be either S6 or S8 and that should improve things no end

                        The numbers changed! Was .109/.107 and now is consistently reading things like:
                        "Calibrated 8 factors using 17 points, deviation before 0.039 after 0.031"

                        I presume that these are better numbers than before.

                        There seems to have been some type of mismatch somewhere, I think it was between the config.g file and the config.json file, as I was seeing via the console, an error msg, when ever I did a calibration, being a G32 'bad command' error. I reran the RepRap wizard and the error msg disapeared. So what does the config.json file do that the config.g file doesn't? Which one is read by the firmware?

                        Thanks for your help.

                          In that image it isn't displaying a height map at all. Did that auto calibration fail?

                            No, that's what I've been saying. I've not seen anything on that grid in all of the runs that I've done. Its seems like its working ok?? and I'm not seeing any error messages anywhere. Both 'AutoCalibration' and 'Mesh Grid Compensation' macros run the entire process. It creates a height-map .csv file, but nothing is displayed? And hovering over it does nothing, and before I mentioned this matter...well...I tried zooming in, and out, rotating, panning. The grid is empty.

                            Here's the content of the most recent HeightMap.csv file that I generated today.

                            On an unrelated subject...I find it peculiar that the web 'G-Console' displays different messages than does the PanelDUE, in fact, there is an obvious disparity between the two readouts, eg, the web 'G-Console' and the PanelDUE 'Console'. It would be convenient to watch the PanelDUE 'Console' display for messages while the web-interface remains in Machine-Control or another mode.

                            Thanks...3mm

                                  You are running a very old version of DWC. Please upgrade it to 1.21.

                                    FW Ver: 1.21 (2018-03-21)
                                    Web Interface Ver: 1.15a

                                    The web-interface, presume is an internal module of the DUET-E firmware v1.21, do I need to manually update that firmware? eg, 1.15a?

                                      Also, which specific (DUET-E v1.02 HW, SAM4E8E) firmware do you recommend? I'd appreciate the URL location, so as not to make any mistakes.

                                          Thanks guys, that fixed the graph anomally!!

                                          What about the latest FW releases? I notice some releases at URL:
                                          https://github.com/dc42/RepRapFirmware/tags
                                          depict a 'verified' tag, while other's don't? What's the difference, are the un-'verified' beta or not-necessarially-stable test releases?

                                          Thanks in advance

                                            That is correct.
