      All,
      I just upgraded to latest firmware and when I try to do 4 points bed probes, I am getting
      Error: Number of calibration factors (4) not equal to number of leadscrews (2)

      The commands I sent are

      [[language]]
      ; BED PROBE SIMPLE
      M561
      G28 X0 Y0 Z0
      G30 P0 X30 Y30 F100 Z-99999       ; define 4 points in a clockwise direction around the bed, starting near (0,0)
      G30 P1 X30 Y270 F1500 Z-99999
      G30 P2 X200 Y270 F1500 Z-99999
      G30 P3 X200 Y30 F1500 Z-99999 S0
      
      M84
      
      

      My config is as follow, I am having since quite a while and there may be some old stuffs that are now causing issues.
      I am especially wondering about the M671 but there may be something else.

        You have included a M671 command in config.g, so G31 and bed.g will do leadscrew calibration. If you want to implement bed compensation, use G29 mesh bed compensation.

          Thanks
          So I should really only use M671 when I want to do a leadscrew calibration or a bed adjustment. In such case, how do I start the process, is that a G32?

            Yes, if you use M671 then G32 does leadscrew calibration or manual adjustment calculation.

              Thanks,
              Is there a user guide on G32 and M671?
              I basically get
              G32
              12 points probed, mean error 0.002, deviation 0.144
              Height map saved to file heightmap.csv

                If you are getting that message, you must have a G29 command in bed.g.

                Instructions for using M671 are at https://duet3d.com/wiki/Bed_levelling_using_multiple_independent_Z_motors and https://duet3d.com/wiki/Using_the_manual_bed_levelling_assistant.

                    Hi @dc42 ,

                    I am trying to use the manual bed levelling assistant and I am getting the same error as above.

                    Here is my bed.g and config.g; any help would be appreciated.

                    Thanks,
                    Madhu.

                      You have only 2 mounting screw points defined in the M671 command in config.g, but you have S4 on the last g30 command in bed.g. If there really are only 2 mounting points for the bed (unlikely!), use S2. Otherwise, add the coordinates of the other mounting screws to the M671 command.
