Wrong position after homing axes
-
This is not what I'm looking for. I do not need to disable manual movement before homing and i do not need to overwrite that with manual commnands to move. All i want is G30 to work properly and not do to that strange additional movement that you can see in the video.
-
Can you send
G31 P1in the gcode console? I suspect that the offset may not be applied correctly.Have you verified that the steps per mm is correct so that 10mm of requested movement equals 10mm of actual movement?

You can do as you wish, I'm merely explaining what's happening. Please keep in mind that we are only trying to volunteer our time to help you solve your problem. If you would prefer, I can stop trying to assist.

I did not want to be rude. I just wanted to clarify what I'am trying to solve. Any help is welcome and I am thankful for all your support. Too sad it has not helped yet.
G31 P1 does not do anything. Do I understand correctly that it should set the probe trigger value? Should the change be visible in the web view?
-
In the gcode console, what does M558 return?
Try sending
M558 P1 H5 F120 T6000
G31 P500 X40 Y0 Z0.35Then alter your homeall "first probe point" to move the probe to the center of the bed. Say G1 X100 Y100. Before the G30.
and then test homing all.

Hmm, this is strange. Now it behaves completely different. The final position after G30 is now at X100 Y100 but the probed point which should be X100 Y100 is done at X0 Y100.
As long is I do not execute G30 the axes are working correctly. Homing X and Y puts the head to left front corner, G1 X100 Y100 moves the head to the center. According to the documentation I have set the front left corner to be 0,0. Somehow after G30, X100 Y100 is 0,0.
-
That definitely doesn't make sense. Are you sure you don't have any G92 commands in your homing files?
-
No, I don't see any G92 commands in my homing files.
-
Could you upload your config files here? It would be helpful to see first hand everything that's going on. Slicer start gcode as well, since you stated it happens when starting a print, but otherwise works fine.
-
I haven't had time the last couple of time.
The problem happens not only when starting a print, but also when i execute homeall or home Z. Starting a print executes G30 first, homeall and home Z execute G30 at the ind.
I wonder why G30 is modifying my X Axis. I thought it should not do it when no Parameter is passed with it.

; Go to first bed probe point and home Z
G1 X0 Y15 F1800Have you changed the position used to probe the bed as I suggested earlier?
If the Probe is +40 in X away from the nozzle, when you try and move the nozzle to X0, the probe would be at -40 in X over the edge of the bed. Get what I mean?
-
When i run G1 X0 Y15 F1800 before Z is homed it goes to the right position.
After G30 X0 it is actually 58mm away from real X0. With the current config I can move below 0 to X-58 until I hit the endstop.It makes no difference if configured Probe to have an offset in X or not. G31 P500 X40 Y0 Z0.35 or G31 P500 X0 Y0 Z0.35 both configs bring the same result. I don't understand how the offset of 58mm is calculated.
-
Ideally you should position the probe so that it's in the center of the bed before sending G30 to probe. Have you tried changing your homeall to do that?
-
Yes, when my single probing point before G30 is the middle, the printer thinks it is the 0,0 position after G30. But when my single probing point before G30 is X0 Y15 the printer takes X58 Y15 as 0,0.
-
Do you think you could upload your config.g and homing files as they currently are?
The firmware will only do what it's told via gcode, so there is something somewhere that's telling it to do something that results in this current behaviour. Having it all in front of me at once makes it a lot easier to sort through.
-
I haven't found the time too look at it. Now I think I might have found something:
When I home X and Y it works fine and when the endstops trigger, the print head stops immediately. But when when i manually control the print head movement or homing Z, the motors do not stop wen the endstop triggers. Therefore when homing Z moves to X0, it hits the endstop but it does not stop the motor. So I end up with an Offset in X.
What I see is, the manual movement through WebControl sends this: G1 X-210 F1200.
Homing sends this: G1 X-210 F1200 S1
So the S1 parameter makes the edstops work. Now G30 must be using the move commands without S1.When I do the following change in config.g:
M564 H0 S0 to M564 H0 S1
Then, both G1 X-210 F1200 S1 works as does G1 X-210 F1200. That's because it limits the axis by calculation and not by the endstops anymore. However, G30 still hits the endstop but the motor keeps running for a short time as seen in the video here:
https://youtu.be/9m7Y-PwS-pIHow can I force G30 to make use of the axis limitation as well? Or can I somehow use the endstops all the time without using the calculated axes?
-
When I move to X100 Y100 in homeZ and then call G30, why does G30 move anyway? In the documentations it says: "Probe the bed at the current XY position".
HomeZ.g:
; Lift Z relatively to current position
G91
G1 Z5 F6000 S2; Back to absolute positioning
G90; Go to first bed probe point and home the Z axis
G1 X100 Y100 F6000
G30 -

This is as expected. The endstops are only acting when there is a homing move (G1 S1).
G30 doesn't do any X or Y movement. You have to position the probe manually first. G30 will only move the Z axis.

I don't know, I haven't seen your full config yet.

i have pointed out to you earlier that this should not be in the config. why do you insist on having that in your config?
