I notice there is an "m501" near the end of config.g. This loads /sys/config_override.g. Please either post that file, and/or consider taking the M501 out until we get this all straight.

That looks really odd to me. Can you post a couple of pictures of the printer? Preferably with the effector as close to X0Y0Z1 as you can get without damaging anything, and then one or two different photo angles at X0Y185Z1.
Thanks!

Hi Danal,
These are commented out in the home file for Delta Calibration as per the documentation they are not always commented just at the point of posting.
Thanks

Hi Danal,
Pictures as requested,
X0Y0Z1
X0Y185Z1
 5mm below the endstop switches, correct?
-
Hi Danal,
That's what it's supposed to do but I cant confirm as it homes to the below error so it doesn't bounce.
It used to do as intended but I rolled the firmware back redid the configs via the online tool since these errors.
Note* the height Z-50 is myself trying to move the effector after homing.
Not sure this helps.
Thanks I know its a lot to scan through it is appreciated.

We will get it going. I appreciate your patience in re-posting stuff for the "new guy" looking into this.

@Carlo Your active high endstops are incorrect, should be M574 X2 Y2 Z2 S1 ; Set active high endstops.
It also looks like you have both RR3 and RR2 configs in your config.g ? file -

yes correct, which version of the firmware is being used? as it's confusing

Great stuff homing now works and endstops offsets now look... correct also

Hi Ian,

Thanks

@Carlo can we see your start gcode from your slicer?, you using G32 (calibrate) before printing?, maybe G29 S1 to load the bed mesh?
-
@boldnuts
I have no start code yet having failed to get a layer down yet didn't want to add any complications,
However I have been doing G92 Z0 with paper G32 before attempting aprint ..I never home after probe and always with heated bed and nozzle, bed @ 70c nozzle @ 220c.
I have done the mesh but don't use it .. more to know it's flat..ish I think?? height maps are above in previous post.If that help ?
Thanks
-
You need to run G32 in your start gcode before every print and it might be a good idea to run G29 to load the bed mesh as well, then recall it with G29 S1

YES!
This is one of the big keys to running a delta. Let it find the bed, every time.

I'll try the mesh I do G32 before every print attempt.
dc42 commented a well built delta doesn't need bed mesh so not wanted to ..because I want a well built delta printer
Thanks
