Probing grid

Yeah then X-38.2 and Y1.2 should be correct shouldn't it?
If i want to move the printhead away from the printhead after homing Z i do have to have something after G30. Which i do

kind of hard to tell without a picture.

Have to do that tomorrow, if i don't walk away from the printer now shit might start hitting the
fan.But, to put it this way: When i move the printer to X43.2 Y3.8 the probe is 5mm from the edge in both directions.

Refering to the G31 section in the Dozuki:
"X and Y offsets of the Z probe relative to the print head (i.e. the position when the empty tool is selected) can be specified. This allows you to calculate your probe coordinates based on the geometry of the bed, without having to correct them for Z probe X and Y offset.".
If i understand correct this means that with the G31 setup correct and the printer have room for the movement, that the firmware will compensate for the z-probe offset. Right?
So if i put X5 Y5 in the M557 first PROBE spot ie. the PROBE position, not the nozzle wil be 5:5? In that case it must be a bug somewhere, because thats not my printers doing at all.

I'm not exactly sure how it's supposed to work but for my grid I choose the x y coordinates of where the probe can reach, not the nozzle.

Yeah i have no problem with that being the way it should work either, but if i define x43.2:305.2 Y3.8:321.8 in M557 it still don't move hotend to that spot before it starts the probing (like i mention farther up it just moves in a snailspace outwards and the bed crashes in the hotend).So somethings either bugged in the firmware, or i have an error or something conflicting in my codes somewhere 🤮

That's definitely odd sounding behavior for the mesh compensation. How are you starting the g29?
If you switch back to 2.02 does it behave the same ? -

But i think i read somewhere in the Dozuki that probing points is allowed outside the max/min?
Probing using G30 commands (for example, in bed.g for delta calibration or true bed levelling) outside the area defined by M208 is allowed. Grid probing is constrained to keep the head reference point within the M208 area.

Yes.

Ok that's fine, so with this code:
M208 X-8 Y-21 Z0 S1 M208 X338 Y323 Z390 S0 G31 P287 X-38 Y1 Z1.5 M557 P5:5 X5:300 Y5:318
the BLTouch pin should start at 5:5 and end at 300:318 with 5 probes in each direction am i correct?
And if the machine is freshly homed on all axes(in my case putting the nozzle at X-8 Y-21 Z5), the printhead/probe should move out to the correct X/Y position before deploying the probe and starting to raise the bed?

Ok so i just reviewed my config.g from yesterday. And the only changes i made was to change the M557 by adding the P parameter and ditching the S. And now it all works for some strange reason.
