Y Axis Wrong direction

rodolfo_paulo

Good evening. Thanks to some reading around here, I've managed to home everything correctly, but it seems I'm unable to correct the Y axis movement.
I've already tried to place P1 S1, but then everything changes. What can I do?

Below follows my config.g

Here you go:

Follow the steps exactly and it will work.

Thanks, but I've already took my time in reading everything in the provided link, and the solution should be "P1 S1", but then both axis get inverted!

When you do individual motor moves using G1 S2 commands, which ways does the head move?

rodolfo_paulo

@dc42 , I've just updated to the lastest firware ( Firmware Version: 2.02(RTOS) (2018-12-24b1)) and it solved itself! The only problem now is that when it home, it does not behaves like the X axis.

Here are the two files.

G1 S1 X-305 F360 ; move slowly to X axis endstop once more (second pass)

Thanks fot the assistance!!!

Can you explain more precisely what you mean?

you have negative values in homeY and positive values in home X, so you'll need to reverse the Y axis moves to home in the right direction now that your motor is going the right way.

Front Right. The system moves diagonal

I need to know what movement each of the following commands causes:

G91 G1 S2 X10 F1000
G91 G1 S2 Y10 F1000

@dc42 said in Y Axis Wrong direction:

G91 G1 S2 Y10 F1000

Sorry about the delay.

Being the carriage in the middle:
With the G91 G1 S2 X10 F1000 command, it goes diagonal, to the right and front.

With the G91 G1 S2 Y10 F1000 command, it goes diagonal, to the right and back.

My intention is to home this printer, being 0,0 at left down corner.

So the X motor is moving the print head in the +X and -Y direction; and the Y motor is moving it in the +X and +Y direction. If you read https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/ConfiguringRepRapFirmwareCoreXYPrinter#Section_Main_configuration_file you will see that the X motor is doing what the Y motor should be doing and vice versa. So you need to swap the X and Y motor connections.

@dc42 , just done that! And now everything seems to be working fine! Once again, thank you a lot for all the help!!!
