Bed probing issues coords not valid
-
im just trying to get this thing dialed in.
i had to move my home location to the centre of the bed, with my new flexplate the IR sensor was reading off the flex plate and was giving errors,
i have zeroed down my axis movements,
x -110 min max 110
y-122 min max 122now when i execute g1 x0 y0 the print head goes directly to the middle of the print bed.
when i set my mesh coords it saying that these coords arent valid when i run a g32, when clearly they are. IE if i command the print head to go to any of these coords it will go.

I just ran into the same problem. I am trying to probe my bed. It looks like the probing is using the probe location for coordinates on the minimal side, but then uses the print head location on the maximal size, and it will skip the last probe.
The G30 command would probe outside of the print boundaries.
It seems like bed leveling should always use the probe location when determining where it is probing and whether it is out of bounds or not.

In M557 you have to put probe coordinates, not nozzle coordinates.
For exampe, your first warning : your x max is 110 and probe offset in x is -24. That means, probe can reach max x 86. So it can not reach x 90 and gives warning. -
@aidar ohhh i totally forgot to factor in my probe offset!
This is my brain at 2am!
Ill get back to you

@aidar i have made the adjustments with my probe taken into account and im sure ive got this correct.
; Z-Probe
M558 P1 H3 F120 T6000 ; set Z probe type to unmodulated and the dive height + speeds
G31 P600 x-2 Y-24 Z0.120 ; set Z probe trigger value, offset and trigger height
M557 X-108:110 Y-98:122 S20 ; define mesh gridhow my printer works, x-110 y-122 is the front corner of the machine the bed (y) axis moves front to back, back corner is x110 y122 and obviously 0,0 is smack in the middle of my bed.
currently the probe is on the front side of the hotend, so if the nozzle is sitting at x -110 the probe is actually probing off of the buildtak system, so when i adjust the mesh to y-108 ( y offset is -24 infront of the hotend) it probes the buildtak just perfect.
so now when i run g32 im still getting errors, even though the probe physically has access to all of them and can see them.

got it sorted,
instead of making adjusting the y negative position i had to adjust the positive position (at the back of the bed...) which makes no sense to me.

@joehsmash said in Bed probing issues coords not valid:

You got it right. Your Ymax is 122 and probe offset Y-24. That means, probe can reach Y98, not more. So yes, you had to adjust mesh area at positive side.
And look at your last post: M557 X-108:110 Y-110:198 S100. I hope that Y 198 is typo, because it should be 98, not 198. -
It was indeed a typo.
thanks for your help on this one, now on to to the last issue, which i am about to post on..
