Delta Auto Calibration

Stoop

ok, I get this.
G32
Calibrated 7 factors using 13 points, deviation before 2.846 after 0.117

But I dont see an output of what my m665 was set to after the calibration.
As well, my z probe is at an offset of x36 y-17. When I run g29, it runs off the edge of the bed in the negative y direction. Can I compensate for that somehow?

Stoop

sorry, not g29.. mesh grid compensation

Stoop

And now, after I run g30 s2
the extruder is at .5 when it is sitting on the bed.
I calibrated my z-probe, as per the https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Calibrating_a_delta_printer document. its currently set at G31 P600 Z1.599 x36 y-15

What am I doing wrong? Which way do I adjust the g31 command to make the height calibration not want to grind my extruder into the bed?

I guess I should give you some more detail as well. This is / was a Boots Industries V2.5 its a triple extruder printer. I have an offset for e0, e1 and e2 tools, as well as an offset for the zprobe from the center of the carriage.

Sounds like you are not saving the calibration resukts, so you are losing them next time you start the printer.

Stoop

Lol. It sounds like.. I have no idea what I'm doing.

If only I had read the document you posted completely. Settings are saved to config.override…

So, the new marlin has a new UBL. One command (I think G29 p2) will probe the center of the bed, and set the z height.

Anything like that in duet?

G30 probes wherever the head is and sets the Z height.

Stoop

and does G30 just probe one point? or multiple points?
Does it clear the mesh?

Stoop

NOW what have I done!?

G30 with on other parameters just probes one point, at the current XY location. It does not clear the mesh.

Patterns of ridges and valleys aligned in the X direction indicate backlash in the mechanics. In your case it is obviously severe. Check for loose pulleys.
