      Hi, I need some help.

      I did struggle a bit on my older printer as well but got it working at one time. Now I'm biting my own tale again. Probably because there is a simple fundamental misunderstanding.

      I'm struggling how to configure my Duet 2 and how to avoid probing outside the bed and/ probing as much area as possible.

      Does the probe have it's completely own plane relatively to a (the) tool/nozzle.

      I made an illustration to help my self as well. Editable draw.io diagram: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1HQhqSgb8IDBUko1jzIApC7QzK2Fqkr1x/view?usp=sharing

        🤦

        I inverted the XY probe offset!

        Instead of G31 P500 X43 Y8 I should use G31 P500 X-43 Y-8.

        Hmm, need to read the doc again.

          The best way to maximize the mesh grid is to take your M208 as the bed surface, then add/subtract your probe offsets. That will give you the area for M577 that the probe can reach. Adjust it slightly so that you can get a whole number of points within it. Tip, if you send an M577 with a unreasonably high number of probing points it will suggest the actual maximum to you.
