      I have a coreXY printer with a duet2 wifi board
      Board: Duet 2 WiFi (2WiFi)
      Firmware: RepRapFirmware for Duet 2 WiFi/Ethernet 3.4.1 (2022-06-01)
      Duet WiFi Server Version: 1.23

      The Z probe is inductive, and offset by 40mm in the X direction from the hot-end

      I can home all axes fine - however, if I try to run G29 - bed compensation, the first probe point the head moves to shows up in DWC as X=10, Y=30

      Unfortunately this puts the inductive probe 30mm off the edge of the bed - so the head crashes

      I do not have a bed.g file
      In the config.g I have:

      M557 X50:250 Y50:250 S20
      

      I thought this would mean the first probe point, when I ran G29, would be X=50, Y=50...any idea why it is not?

        @dbrb2 that's correct. You give it the coordinates of where you want the heightmap to be and then it applies the probe offset
        You should probably adjust your M208 minima. E.g. if you nozzle is 20mm off the bed when coming into contact with the endstop then set the minima as X-20. This way X0 is the edge of the bed.

          @jay_s_uk Thanks

          I defined the Z probe offset as follows (also in config.g):

          G31 P500 X40 Y20 Z0.53                  ; set Z probe trigger value, offset and trigger height
          

          At the endstop position (X=0) the nozzle is just on the edge of the bed - however this puts the Z-probe off the bed by ~40mm

            @dbrb2 hold on, if your probe has an offset of X40, then it should be 40mm to the right of the nozzle. If its off the bed by 40mm then it should be X-40
