DWC shows two layer heights, when single height sent from S3D
-
As the title says, I'm scratching my head over an issue that I've noticed recently.
On my printer, running 1.19 firmware, when I start a print and look at the print status, I see 0.1mm/0.3mm Layer Height in the print statistics.
The print settings in Simplify 3D are for 0.3mm, with no variations.The only layer dependent setting I have configured is going from 0% part cooling fan to 50% fan when it advances to layer two.
Does anyone have any idea what drives the detection of layer height, that is then displayed on the web interface?

Please make your gcode file available.
Do you have Z hop during travel moves enabled?
-
Z hop is not enabled, though I have been thinking to do so, after watching it gouge a couple of the lower layers.
Here is the latest print, the back cover for a 4.3" PanelDue.

Thanks. What I think is confusing it is the G1 Z0.1 command in your start GCode. If you change that to G1 Z0.3, or to G1 Z[first_layer_height] if that works in S3D, I think that will solve it.

I forgot that was even in there.
That is a remnant of finding z-0 and trying to get the bed levelling to behave, and somehow ended up in the start codes instead of migrating into the config.g z-probe offset settings. -
Okay, I tested this again with the S3D startup scripts no longer having the z movement preamble, after adjusting the config.g to reflect the probe height.
It is still showing 0.1mm/0.3mm layer height, and I noticed that this current print completed on layer 43 of 75.
"Layer: 43 of 75, Filament Usage: 5094.1mm of 5094.1mm (0.0mm remaining)"
