DuetWifi 1.01 Updated to 1.24 - No Z Axis after update
-
Those files look correct, except for home z. There are no g1 moves that aren't homing moves that occur before the axis is homed in the other files. But homez raises the z axis before doing the g30. That move would require S2.
It sounds like you have home all working properly now?
I just occured to me now that it looks like you have a duet wifi but are running 1.24? I think you're eligible to upgrade further to 2.03 if you wished.
-
M558 will need F for feed rate during probe moves. H for dive height to probe from, T for travel speed between probe points. P for the probe type. X Y and Z are deprecated and can be removed. The g31 seems ok. Except the trigger height for z would indicate that the nozzle is touching the bed when it triggers.
Is the probe attached to the print head or fixed to the frame?
-
M558is definiltey responding to the extra settings, but I still have to runM564 H0to home the z-axis.
Additionally when it does run
G30it does one probe and then rises and dives again moving in x+y+z. In doing so it pushes up past the end-stops making bad noises even though it's already homed the x and y axes.It seems like it's doing something after the probing, but none of the actions defined in any of the
home_.gmatch what it's doing. What exactly happens whenG30runs and is it dictated by any of these files? RunningG29also causes the machine to push beyond its axes after x and y homing as well.

This was one part of the update that was super confusing, I wasn't sure if the Duet2 and the DuetWifi I have are directly compatible with the firmware offered.
The file I sent during firmware writing using BOSSA was
Duet2CombinedFirmware.binfrom what appears to be the latest release. -

G31 P1000 Z2
Your G31 needs to define the X and Y offset between the probe and the nozzle.
-
What does the settings page say you have installed for firmwares?
-
First off thank you so much for your help with this!

!!!! wow lol seems like a critical thing to be missing... measuring this now and figuring out the distance
-
Looks like you're all up to date.
This may help with getting the probe setup: https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Test_and_calibrate_the_Z_probe#Section_Static_test_of_the_Z_probe
-
Seems like a bug if missing or incorrect probe offsets can cause the X and Y axes to crash. Once they are homed shouldn't they be limited to their defined range regardless of what G-code is executed?
-
Did adding the X and Y parameters to G31 fix it?

The probe offsets default to zero; so leaving them out won't cause a crash.

Do you mean you always need to run M564 H0 to home the Z axis; or only if you try to home the Z axis before X and Y have been homed?
When homing Z with a Z probe, the firmware won't let you do it if X and Y have not been homed first; otherwise it would probe at unknown XY coordinates.
Did you add the S2 parameter to the following command in homez.g as @Phaedrux said?
G1 Z1 F200 ; raise head 1mm to ensure it is above the Z probe trigger height

Yes, this is exactly the case. Please see the screenshot above, I posted a log from the g-code console to document this.
Did you add the S2 parameter to the following command in homez.g as @Phaedrux said?
I did and the
S2allows for upward movement before the probe, but it still refuses to execute theG30that does Z-probing unless I runM564 H0first. -
Can you try deleting the deployprobe.g and retractprobe.g files?

THIS WORKED
The "random movements" issue has been solved! I didn't delete the files I just commented out their contents, but I'll prob remove them soon for good measure.Still need to run
M564 H0before z-axis is unlocked, but I feel way more confidant about doing some test prints now that the machine is homing correctly and behaving as expected again. -

Repost your homing files. There is a G1 move in there somewhere that needs S2.

I copied the contents of the files over to a scratch pad before I commented them out, here they are. I don't recall setting these up so it seems like something that was on the SD card that the previous firmware didn't run / care about? Not sure... either way I am elated that I had two successful prints tonight!
// deployprobe.g ; Probe deployment routine for Mini Kossel M564 S0 ; don't apply limits G1 X25 Y93 Z40 F10000 ; put probe arm next to belt G1 X-5 F500 ; move probe arm across belt G1 X12 F1000 ; move probe back G1 X0 Y0 F10000 ; move to somewhere sensible M564 S1 ; apply limits again //retractprobe.g ; Probe retraction routine for Mini Kossel M564 S0 ; don't apply limits G1 Z40 F10000 ; raise head G1 X-59 Y66 Z35 ; move over the post G1 Z7 F500 ; push probe down on post G1 Z35 F10000 ; raise head again G1 X0 Y0 ; move to somewhere sensible M564 S1 ; apply limits againAfter taking a look at these I can clearly see it's setting
M564 S1at the end of each which is prob what was causing the "axes not homed" errors! I commented out theM654 H0in myconfig.gand it homes the Z with no problem now. These files also account for the "random" x+y movements that were happening with the homing process as well... mysteries solved and case closed.This thread can be marked solved! Thanks again to @dc42 @Phaedrux for your help!

Glad it's all working now.
