Z Probe - Omron PNP inductive sensor

[dc42]

What type of printer is it? There is a known bug with homing SCARA printers in some firmware versions.

If your printer isn't a SCARA, try sending the same commands that are in homez.g manually, one at a time.

[lassivv]

Have Prusa i2 printer, totally worked ok with Ramps/Re-arm compination years. Normal cartesian printer.

Sended that homez.file commands one at a time via g-code console.

19.01.21 G30
Error: G0/G1: insufficient axes homed
19.01.15 G1 X15 Y25 F2000
19.01.06 G90
19.00.59 G1 Z5 F600 S2
19.00.35 G91

Everything else going ok, but that G30 gives that same error immediately when i send that to printer.

edit: G28 gives same "Error: G0/G1: insufficient axes homed" error.

edit2: One more screenshot if that tells something more:

Is this P5 right choice Z probe when i have this PNP induction digital sensor (with 10k resistor signal to ground). ( P5 (from RepRapFirmware 1.14) selects a switch by default (normally closed) for bed probing between the In and Gnd pins of the Z-probe connector (Duet 0.8.5 and Duet 2 WiFi).)

Hopefully someone have tips. I dont get any ideas what i can try to get this working

Do you have any deployprobe.g or retractprobe.g files that you didn't create yourself? If so, delete them.

Just do my install with this tutorial, nothing more do yet.

This files are generated that reprapconfigutator tool.

Is possible there is some more axles or something why that say "G0/G1: insufficient axes homed". Hard to find that problem because that not saying anything more than "insufficient axes homed", is there any place of web control or memory card where is going more exact log, where can find solution of this?

Not understand what can be wrong. All axis moving ok, if i put g-code console: M564 S0 H0. Then every axis goes ok both directions. All limit switch give (hit endpoint) yes, when i push limit switches, same thing when put something metal near to z probe. All axis move out to limit switch if drive + numbers to millimeters, if but - millimeters axis goes nearer to limit switch.

OK, I guess you checked the "Deploy/Retract probe" box. Please delete those files, and if you run the configurator again don't check that box.

Many thanks probing start to work and now all axis home ok. Many many thanks to you @dc42

Tomorrow need to try setup probe offset. And try to know more better what is best choice to pick up bed leveling system. My old system do before everyprint 3point measuring on bed.

If some link or recommeded tips i take all gladly

Think to start with this links:
https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Setting_up_automatic_probing_of_the_print_bed
https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Using_mesh_bed_compensation

Only thing dont know if these Y 40mm offset or is that -40mm, but maybe can try that tomorrow and be ready to click emernency button

[dc42]

The probe offset is measured from the head reference point (which is normally the nozzle) to the probe.

Thanks for info. Printer works like a charm now, first test parts printed without any problems and quality is very nice and steppers works very smoothie, i think because this awesome stepper drivers.

One weird "problem" is on inside web control, when printing is going. First layer status seems calculate right.

But after that whole print layer is sitting 2/10layers.

Example pictures. Part is about 70% ready like progression bar tells, but Layer is 2/10 like see picture.

Then wait little bit and progression bar goes ready(100% like screenshot (inside screenshot printer is still printing), still print continue about 2minutes and after that printer shutdown right way what i programmed on end g code.

Parts printed ok, but some problem on that layer status or something.

Here is gcode what is used to test and get that error. I use Prusa Slic3r.
0_1544369755571_Part Studio 7 - Part 1petg.gcode

Here my start gcode and stop gcode what i give on Slic3r start and stop gcode fields like my older printers.

Start code:
M80 ; virtalähde päälle
T0 ; Tool valinta
G90 ;absolute positioning
M83 ; extruder relative mode
M104 S[first_layer_temperature] ; set extruder temp
M140 S[first_layer_bed_temperature] ; set bed temp
; Homing & leveling
G28 ; Home all axis M80 ; virtalähde päälle
G1 X95 Y95 F4000 ; Go to bed center before probing
;Wait for Temperature
M109 S[first_layer_temperature] ; wait for extruder temp
M190 S[first_layer_bed_temperature] ; wait for bed temp
G30 ; Find the Z=0
G29 S1 ; Load the height map from the last time I used G29 to probe the bed.
;Print intro line
G1 Y193 F1000.0 ; go outside print area
G92 E0.0 ; reset extruder

Stop code
M104 S0 ; turn off temperature
M140 S0 ; Turn off bed
G1 X100 ; 100 X axis
G1 Y100 ; 100 Y axis
M84 ; disable motors

I updated newer version that slic3r and that seems to solve that problem. Now just need to start learning everything what is possible with Duet. Big thanks fast help.

p.s. Now just waiting when i get my PanelDue 7" and hope get that working

[lassivv]

@dc42 said in Z Probe - Omron PNP inductive sensor:

Do you have any deployprobe.g or retractprobe.g files that you didn't create yourself? If so, delete them.

One question related to that. Printer works very good and new 7" PanelDue works perfect.

Console gives every print error (web control and paneldue):
Warning: Macro file deployprobe.g not found.
Warning: Macro file rectractprobe.g not found.

Print goes ok, but want that warning pop-ups disappier. Can i modify config or some file that kind not get that errors with that two files what i deleted.

[dc42]

I think you have debugging enabled, otherwise you would not get those messages. If you have a M111 command in config.g then it should read: M111 S0

You could also create new deployprobe.g and retractprobe.g files that contain just a comment line such as:

; Empty file
