@GT1Za said in Y bed and Endstop offset?:

X0 Y0 should be the front left of my bed. I have made a mark 10mm in from each side given that the bed is actually 510 by 510.

If the bed is 510 x 510 shouldn't the marks be made at 5mm in from each edge? 510 - (10 + 10) is 490.

My X endstop on the X actually hits at X5 so it recording a position of X5 would make it 10 which is correct mathematically, but will mean that everything actually prints 5mm to the left.

You can adjust your axis min/max values to account for actual endstop position but there is another way.

For this example assume X min is set to 0, X max is set to 500 and the endstop sensor triggers at X = 5.

G91 ; relative moves G1 H1 X-520 Faaa ; move toward the endstop at a "fast" speed (sets X position to X min) G1 X20 ; back off enough so endstop is not triggered G1 H1 X-30 Fbbb ; move again toward the endstop at a "slow" speed to improve accuracy G90 ; absolute moves G92 X5 ; set the X position to the actual position where the endstop triggered

@Phaedrux thanks I can confirm updating the firmware fixed the issue

@GT1Za in answer to your question: BOTH

I use this on a few of my dual Z machines. here is my G code for one of my Chiron's

M584 X0 Y1 Z2:4 E3 ; Custom drive mapping

M671 X-40:440 Y206:206 S2 ; Lead screw positions at right and left of the X axis

I have that in the "drives" section of my config.g

That works in conjunction with my bed.g file which is executed by G32 Which I set in motion by means of a macro entitled "all in one leveling" it first levels the X gantry ( I do it twice to reduce the amount of error correction) then I have it probe the bed by calling G29 that uses the info from my M557 Command

contents on my bed.g

; bed.g
; called to perform automatic bed compensation via G32

We're pleased to help! I'm sorry your board developed a fault. For info, we've seen issues with poor soldering on the right hand pins of the SD card socket before, which is why I evaluated a more expensive but compatible socket recently. I'm please to say that I found that the pins on that socket are much more wettable by the solder, so we've switched to it for future production.

Can you also repost your config and homing files as they currently are?
