Mesh Grid Compensation

@dc42
no the first point for me is way up in the air like it says on the z ~ 12 mm

Maybe you have the maximum Z speed set too high in M203, or the maximum Z acceleration set too high in M201?

When the Z probe is lifted and moved between probe points, the firmware commands both the lift and the XY movement at the speed given by the F parameter in the M558 command. On a Cartesian or CoreXY printer, the M203 Z speed limit would normally be much lower than the M558 F parameter, so the Z lift will be at this lower speed.

@dc42

i changed it and made it lower but then i still got this

dc42

Did you run the test that I suggested in my first reply?

Puppet172

@dc42
Yes I tried that too got the pretty much the same this as the last one I just posted.

I meant this one:

To test this, place the nozzle over the bed and send G1 Z5 and G30 S-1 alternately. The G30 S-1 command should report about the same trigger height each time. If it reports increasing trigger heights, you are probing too fast. Reduce the F parameter in the M558 command until you get a consistent result.

@dc42
Yes it would go up a little by little like 4.303 to 4.350 and so on, sometimes it would eventually level out i then changed the F from i think 120 to 100 and then it seemed to level out right away to about .01 of a mm

What M201 and M203 Z parameters are you using, and what is your Z steps/mm?

Puppet172

@dc42
M350 X16 Y16 Z16 E16 I1 ; Configure microstepping with interpolation
M92 X80 Y80 Z2000 E100.1 ; Set steps per mm
M566 X900 Y900 Z12 E120 ; Set maximum instantaneous speed changes (mm/min)
M203 X6000 Y6000 Z100 E1200 ; Set maximum speeds (mm/min)
M201 X500 Y20 Z350 E250 ; Set accelerations (mm/s^2)
M906 X800 Y800 Z800 E800 I30 ; Set motor currents (mA) and motor idle factor in per cent
M84 S30

Your Z acceleration in M201 looks very high for 2000 steps/mm. I suggest you reduce it to around 40. OTOH your Y acceleration looks very low for 80 steps/mm.

Puppet172

@dc42 I think you got my m92 and m201 mixed up because my m92 z is 2000 but my m202 isn’t

dc42

@puppet172, I was referring to your M201 Z350.

Puppet172

@dc42

What would you recommend putting it at ?

dc42

40, as I said before.

Puppet172

@dc42
I will put it at 40 and then I will do another mesh bed and then post it

Did you set you Z by "Home Z" or do you adjust with a piece of paper and G92 Z0?

I might be wrong but if your home Z and your offset isn't setup, that could cause the issue if before running M92 you your whole M92 should be off.

I will explain, if you home with your probe and your 0 is really 3mm, you then home with a piece of trigger and fix the difference but that will cause that when you run M92 and your probe triggers, they will assume that your are always minimun 3mm off...

@nylkos
how do i set the offset?

dc42

What type of Z probe are you using?
