Solved Tool 1 offset not being applied in 3.4
-
Hello . I have upgraded from 3.3 stable version to 3.4 stable, and my T1 tool is not receinving its offset now. When I issue a T1 command, the tool changes and it is active, but the offset is not applied, has anything changed in 3.4 version with the G10 command
-
@tinchus there has been no intentional change in RRF 3.4 that I think explains what you have reported.
Please use the Object Model Browser in DWC to check that the tool offsets have been set correctly.

@dc42 Offset are there. I can see the Y=-66.95 X=0 Z=-1.6
-
@dc42 I have just noticed: the X and Y offsets are being applied, I can see the movments corectio when issuing a T1 command, it is the Z offset the one not being executed
-
@tinchus please see the RRF3.4 upgrade notes. After a tool change the original Z position is no longer restored because too many users complained that it was not appropriate on their systems. You can restore the original Z position taking account of the Z offset by adding G1 Z0 R2 Fxxx at the end of the tpost file, where xxx is an appropriate feed rate for the Z axis.

@dc42 Ok, my bad for not reading that. Doc says:
we suggest you add command G1 R2 X0 Y0 Z2 Fxxx followed by G1 R2 Z0 Fxxx to the end of your tpost#.g files,
Why the second line of command?
-
@tinchus That's doing the move in a slightly safer/better way by splitting it into two steps. The first moves to the saved X/Y point but 2 mm above it and the second move will then move vertically down to the full X/Y/Z point. By doing it that way you are less likely to hit the part or cause scarring etc by moving over it with say a nozzle that has filament built up on it.

Question solved, thank you very much for the help
