X5SA DuetWifi - Common Problems and Fixes.

We'll need to see config and homing files if my previous post doesn't help.
-
@doctrucker will try tonight and post results.

To save other people searching this is the machine:

330mm in x and z, 400 in z. Appears to be a core xy belt pattern.

If you've not seen the following it's worth a read:

@doctrucker Home X and Home Y seem to be working now.
However Home Z sends the Bed down(+) instead of up(-) towards the hot end. -
How did you get on following the list of checks I suggested? Where did it go wrong?Edit: writing while you posted!
-
Try running I0 on M558 in the config file?
-
If you look on the web control it displays the reading from the probe. If it doesn't menyion the probe on the endstop status check there.
You wang to ensure it triggers at the right level manually before using it automatically.
If it is triggered when it shouldn't be and not triggered when it should be (according to dwc or firmware rather than light on probe) then the I on M558 is inverted.
-
...but it will raise a little before diving as defined by the dive height.
"When using mesh bed compensation or running G30 commands with specified XY coordinates (for example from the bed.g file), the firmware moves the Z probe to this height above where it expects the bed to be before commencing probing."

I0
didn't help. Z dives when hitting homez.
-
Have you tested and calibrated the Z probe? https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Test_and_calibrate_the_Z_probe
-
@chriskimbr more than 5mm? Leave the I setting as it was if the duet was reporting it triggered when it should be.
-
homex works great
homey works greathomez sloooowly dives to bottom and grinds into it.
-
Do you mean it is forcing the nozzle into the bed, or the elevator to it's maximum travel position away from the nozzle?
Move (manually if needbe) the machine so that the nozzle is ~10mm from the bed.
Using the nudge buttons when you press +1mm does the gap between the nozzle and platform get larger or smaller?
If smaller then you need to invert the drive direction.

home z sends the bed down. It should be going up.
nudging is disabled until all axis are homed. -

nudging is disabled until all axis are homed.It sounds like you just need to reverse the direction of the Z motor. To nudge the bed prior to homing use the S2 parameter. So from the console, input G1 Z1 S2 and bed should go down 1mm. If it goes up, that confirms the motor direction needs to be reversed. If your Z motor is connected to P2 then M569 P2 Sn (if "n" is zero set it to 1 and vice versa).

Before sending G1 S2 moves to nudge the bed, send G91 to put the motion in relative mode.
