    Hello,

    I'm trying to configure my printer to use a microprobe.
    Thanks to the community, the microprobe is now wired successfully and reponds to commands in the console. I also just configured X and Y axes with stall detection and sensorless homing. As it is my first trial, I need to home printer's 3 axes. However, the microprobe isn't deploying nor palping the bed. I tried homing but I had to stop before it touches the bed. So either it is not working properly or maybe it is going too low.

    Would you have any leads for me?

      @Timothee-Leblond

      And the MicroProbe is responding to M401 and M402?

      I was never able to get that working. I will try testing my setup again.

      Unrelated but possibly of interest:

      In your homing files you have

      M400
      M913
      M400

      As far as I know they are serving no purpose.

      Also for your "coarse" and "fine" homing moves you have the same F values. Normally the "fine" move is done at a much slower speed. I don't see the need to do the same move twice if they are at the same speed.

      Waiting for verification that M401/M402 are working for you.

      Thanks, Frederick

        @Timothee-Leblond you should be using G30 moves to home z, not G1 H1 Z

          Hi Frederick,

          Yes, the M401/M402 commands are working. M42 as well.

            So should I replace every G1 by G30 in my homez?

                It looks like what I made initially?
                I have a G1 going to center followed by a G30.

                  @Timothee-Leblond said in Z configuration for sensors:

                  M950 P0 C"out6"

                  This should be io6.out not out6 I believe.

                  Are you sure M401 and M402 are working to retract and deploy the pin? What do you have in your deployprobe.g and retractprobe.g files?

                  M558 P9 H10 F250:30 T8000 C"^!io6.in"

                  Your trigger pin is also inverted with the ! , which might lead to the probe triggering before it's even deployed. Are you sure it needs to be inverted?

                    I confirm M401/M402 are working with M950 P0 C"out6". On the contrary, it is not using M950 P0 C"io6.out".

                      understood.

                      Can you show a photo of your probe wiring at the board?

                      When you send G30 manually, the Z axis moves, but the probe does not deploy? But M401/M402 do work?

                        First of all, when I send G30 it says: "Error: G30: Insufficient axes homed for bed probing".
                        When I try homing, I regularly have the same problem.
                        Right now, when I home all, the X bumps into the wall with a noise, the probe deploys, retracts then deploys and I then have that error message again without the Y being homed.

                        I know my first problem may be due to the stall detection and sensorless homing through M915 in config.g. I've been trying to set it up but I still have some problems.

                        M915 X Y S10 R1 F1 H2 ; set sensorless homing

                        The wiring had been thanks to an other discussion here: https://forum.duet3d.com/topic/37443/wiring-biqu-microprobe-to-duet-rototoolboard/43

                          Are you able to home X and Y independantly successfully?

                          Need to get that sorted first. If you want to pretend the axis are homed, you can move them manually to the correct location and then send G92 X0 Y0 to force the axis to be homed and at that position.

                          You can try adding M401 and M402 commands to deploy/retract the probe right before and after you send G30 in your homing files.

                            For X, homing is making a noise bumping the wall but it seems to work.
                            For Y, I have no problem homing it.

                            However, the home all is problematic.

                            Sending M92 X0 Y0 before homing Z gives the same Error answer.
                            I already have M401/M402 in my homing files before and after G30.

                              Can you share your most up to date homing files?

                              Can you capture and share the exact error messages you get and exactly when?

                                I had the error: Error: G30: Insufficient axes homed for bed probing when trying to home all axes at the same time. For some reasons after I restarted the printer, I seem I no longer have it.
                                However, when I home all or home Z or send G30, the extuder gets all the way down ignoring the probe, hitting the bed. When I manually activate the pin of the probe before it reaches bed, this error appears: Error: G4: Probe already triggered at start of probing move.

                                On top of that, it is not going to the center of the bed before probing and my X axes make a noise when homing which I can't solve.

                                  For the sake of simplicity and not duplicating code this is how I code homeALL.g.

                                  M98 P"homeZ.g"
                                  M98 P"homeY.g"
                                  M98 P"homeX.g"

                                  You can change the order as best for your printer.

                                    Thanks for the tip, I'll do that in the future.

                                    But I'm not sure it will solve my problem right?

                                      No, nothing to do with your problem - it just makes things a bit simpler in that if you make a change to homing code for one axis (X Y or Z) you don't need to make the same change to homeALL.g

                                          I'm kind of at a loss for your probe issue. It's confusing why M401 would work to deploy the pin manually but not during the homing move.

                                          Have you tried manually positioning he probe at the center of the bed and then sending M401 and G30 to deploy and start probing?
