Z Probe shows no values
-
new day new problem,
I converted my Piezo Z probe to an inductive PNP sensor.
V:10-36V
I Signal:200mA
PNP closer so normally openI have soldered the signal cable as follows:
1.) 68K to the signal cable
2.) then 10K to the resistor
3) of which 2 from cable once signal and once GND.the wiring should be right. However, I get no signal now after I rewrite the config file. The sensor triggers on a metallic object, but the display stops at 0.
Could it be that I've crashed the board? or does not enough volts arrive?
-
What is the power voltage to the sensor, and what M558 command do you have in config.g ?
-
good morning,
the power voltage is 24V and yes i used the M558 P5 command... i just checkt the signal output voltage before and after those resistors and before the resistor it says 23.6V and after those resistors it reads 21.6V
i already checkt the resistors and both show me the exact amount of 10K and 68K
-
the upper one is my actual wiring is this one correct ? or should i use the other one?
-
Both diagrams are wrong. Use:
68K between probe output and Z-probe connector IN pin
10K between Z-probe connector IN and GND pins -
ive managed this but the probe does sometime not trigger while running g32 oder g29. While calibrating everything just works fine.
the other thing is, the lights on the z-probe will light as soon as they reach the altitude, but the DWC still has a value of 0.
I have also tested whether there are possibly places he does not recognize by I let you nozzle with a millimeter distance to the bed over the whole bed drive. A value of 1000 has been displayed at each location.
he only sometimes makes me a leadscrew correction what could that be?

Please check the signal voltage between the IN pin of the ZPROBE connector and ground with your multimeter. It should be very low (probably about 0.3V) when the sensor is not triggered, and about 3V when the sensor is triggered.

yeah i alerady checked this to be sure its wired correctly..
i also checked it right now. not triggered its about 0.28V and triggered its about 2.98V this should be good i think.
its also curious when iam calibrating the sensor everything works fine and also the measurement is pretty accurate ( 0.05mm deviation in 10 mesaurments). but when i hit run G32, home Z or even G29 the the duet will only take every third spot.
maybe i need to adjust the ofset between the nozzle and the probe?
*edit: (18:50)
after lowering the z probe nothing changed. tried to home z and there is 0 Value. same spot same dive heights same spped while using g30 S-1 1000 Value and bed stopsthe z probe shows me a value of 0 but the console tell me that the z probe was triggered and give me an mesaurement..
**edit: (19:54)
i run an g32 and an g29 and here is my height map.. what could this be? i think this looks good to me and i also get no error like probe was not triggering
maybe the sensor works? i dont know

@kevino said in Z Probe shows no values:
the z probe shows me a value of 0 but the console tell me that the z probe was triggered and give me an mesaurement..
When you do what, exactly? The firmware may raise the print head again so quickly when the probe triggers that you never see the 1000 value in DWC.
-
when i run g32 or g29 or like when iam runing my macro of g1 z10 and G30 s-1 20 times...
mmh really suspicious.. using duetwebcontrol 2 there was no leadscrew correction but with using the old one there is one.. mh so for me it works i think iam also doing a print and the first layer looks okay.
maybe its because of the fast raising i dont know
with the precision piezo i never had something like that.. I saw all the time those Values
