I believe your G31 line is incorrect for your Z. It should be a positive number and not a negative.
For my BL-touch on one of my corexy printers, my G31 line is this
G31 P500 X-25.5 Y-20 Z2.62With a negative z, that means the probe would be higher than the nozzle and it would never make contact. That might make sense for someone using a piezo sensor where the nozzle itself presses on the bed but not for something like a bl-touch.

It would help to see your full config.g and homeall.g file as well.

Can you post homez.g please?
Whatever homez is doing, when it's done, you have it setting whatever position it's currently at as Z0.

Thank you for your help.

Simply delete this line from your homeall.g and I think things should be working better.

Genius!
That definitely made a difference, and the height map looks a lot better.
If I have probe offsets for marlin, could I also use the same values with duet?
Also, I did notice it was skipping points on the bed.
I am running into this error.

Warning: Skipping grid point X=210.0, Y=210.0 because Z probe cannot reach itIf your probe offsets in your G31 are correct then there's no way the probe can reach the coordinates specified for your mesh.
G31 P500 X-40 Y-12 Z-1.6 ; set Z probe trigger value, offset and trigger height
M557 X10:230 Y10:230 S40 ; define mesh gridThe M557 points try to put the probe over the specified spot.
If the probe is 40mm to the left of the nozzle, then you can easily get it to X10, but to get the probe to X230 means the nozzle must be at X270, which is bigger than your stated X maxima.
Same applies in the Y direction.
Check your offsets using the method hereThen drive the head to the furthest points in X that you can safely reach with the probe and mark the points with some tape or a marker.
Then drive the nozzle to these points and take note of the positions. These will be your min max for M557.
Repeat the process for the Y directions.
You should end up with something like M557 X3:187 Y3:215 (assuming you leave a few mm from the edge of the bed) if your offsets are in fact X-140 and Y-12. -

It seems to be working a lot better now after those adjustments. I am trying to understand however why it isn't probing farther to the right. When I was running marlin, it would probe the exact center on its center home. When it probes with this software the nozzle is center not the probe. Do I have something set wrong?

@ScubaDoge
When you run G29, the firmware uses the probe offsets and moves to put the probe in the command position
When you are homing and use G30, it probes in the current position.
So you need to adjust your G1 command to place the probe in the center of the bed (or wherever you want it to be) before you call G30 to probe.
