Need Probe Setup Help
-
I have a switch type probe that I am trying to set up. Totally confused about the nomenclature. So, here is M115:FIRMWARE_NAME: RepRapFirmware for Duet 2 WiFi/Ethernet FIRMWARE_VERSION: 3.1.1 ELECTRONICS: Duet WiFi 1.02 or later FIRMWARE_DATE: 2020-05-19b2 Current probe settings with the switch installed on E0 and the probe registering when pushed with board LED on/then going off: ; Z-Probe M558 P8 C"!io0.in" H5 F300 T6000 R0.4 ; set Z probe type to switch and the dive height + speeds G31 P500 X0 Y0 Z20.6 ; set Z probe trigger value, offset and trigger height M557 R52 S20 ; define mesh grid Once this is correct, I can move on to 2 other issues to complete my installation. It's been a tough slog so far. -
If it is a simple switch, you should be using P5.
What issues are you having?
-
I was using P8 for an unfiltered response. When I employ the probe command, it stops above the bed and probes the air.
-
is it a delta? Try running G30 first to get the correct bed height
-
Yes, delta. G30, then M558?
-
No, making sure you have M501 at the end of your config, send the following commands
G30
G32
M500 -
OK. G30 gives me 2 error messages: G30 Error: G30: Z probe 0 not found 9/17/2020, 10:20:06 AM G30 Error: G30: Insufficient axes homed for bed probing -
Post your whole config as you seem to have an issue with your M558 setting

remove lines 1 to 42 from your config file. they shouldn't be there
-
Interesting. Those lines do not show in my config.g. I am copying the config.g by selecting all, copy, paste. When I do that those other lines appear but I don't see them otherwise.

If you send M558, what does it output?
-
M558
Error: M558: Z probe 0 not found -
I've just realised why. You've used a duet 3 pin name with a duet 2.
Where do you have it connected? -
At position E0 on the endstop connectors
-
change your command to
M558 P8 C"!e0stop" H5 F300 T6000 R0.4 -
-
Before you ask:
m558
Z Probe 0: type 8, input pin !e0stop, output pin nil, dive height 5.0mm, probe speed 300mm/min, travel speed 6000mm/min, recovery time 0.44 sec, heaters normal, max taps 1, max diff 0.03 -
Run G30 and see if it probes.
I would make sure you've homed your machine using G28 and then tap the probe on the way down to make sure it stops -
