help setting z axis 4 motors and endstop and one probe
-
Hi,
You did not say if X and Y homing was working as you have it now.
I will assume it isn't until you say otherwise.
In your homing file change X-1005 to X1005 and Y-1005 to Y1005 in the two G1 commands.
As to the position of your Z end stops you said "is at the high positioned" - I don't know what that means.
So let me ask another way. If you move the bed on the Z axis toward the extruder assembly are you moving towards Z min and the Z end stops?
And why did you remove those two Z end stop entries from the M574?

Z min and the Z end stops?
yes
And why did you remove those two Z end stop entries from the M574?
because it write my the erorr "G28 field to enable endstop."

yes
Then in your config file you need to...
- change M574 Z2 to M547 Z1
Then in your homing file you need to...
-
change the G1 H1 Z990 F360 to G1 H1 Z-990 F360
-
remove or comment out the G92 Z990
And why did you remove those two Z end stop entries from the M574?
because it write my the erorr "G28 field to enable endstop."
Well if you have four physical Z end stop sensors you are going to need four end stop inputs referenced in the M574 for Z.
I don't know why you are getting the error but restore all four pin name references for now.
Onec you make the change reboot and try to home the printer.

run M92 P"config.g" to check for errors in your config

How many Z endstops do you physically have? Are you intending to use multiple endstops to level the 4 motors?
-
Ok after reading a lot of articles I still did not succeeded to operate the end stop triggers each motor individual but I think that's not necessary because I'm leveling the nuzzle from the low end ( z min is close to the bed) so I decided for every axis will be one end stop.
The new problem I'm having is when I homing the X axis it's run slowly and the Z axis as well at the same time(hapooening only for the X axis).

How many Z endstops do you physically have? Are you intending to use multiple endstops to level the 4 motors?
leveling the nuzzle to the bed I using the IR sensor, this is the one I bought OrmerodSensor V1.2 IR Height Sensor - WiFi -

@Veti
M92 P"config.g"
Steps/mm: X: 80.000, Y: 80.000, Z: 1600.000, E: 420.000 -
maybe I need to put the leveling in the macros folder ?
-
according to the configurator the endstops are called like
exp.e3stopyour steps configuration is incorrect.
only on E are : notations allowed. remove them for the commands.
-
With v3 firmware homing with multiple Z steppers each with their own end stop sensor couldn't be much easier.
This are just a few settings you have to get right and it's easy to test step by step to get it working.
The nice thing about that setup is, with a bit of care, you can quickly get the bed very close to level before utilizing the slower process of Automatic Bed Leveling (ABL) to fine tune the result.
Hope you change you mind.

I'm not really sure what you mean by this.

I'm not sure what you mean by this either. Your endstops are configured at the high end of the Z axis. Are they actually located at the low end?
If you're using the probe to level, does your bed.g work correctly?
Also, if it's an IR probe, you don't need M401 and M402 in your bed.g
