    • RE: Stack Overflow error when running G32 from gcode print file

      It was the M120 beep commands I had in there to warn me to remove any ooze before the print starts. On the Rambo board, M120 is a beep, not so on this one, it is something else entirely. When I redid the beeps with M300's, all works.

      First test print running now. Damn that thing is quiet. Well, the motion anyway. The fans not so much. I just need to find quieter 30mm fans. The printer is 3 feet behind my head, and I need to keep looking over to make sure the thing is still moving.

    • RE: Manual extrusion results in way too much material extruded

      Slaps forehead.... yeah, more comes out of the nozzle, I was expecting the requested amount through the nozzle, but I completely ignored the fact that the filament is being squeezed, therefore stretched. So all good then.

      Thanks

    • Manual extrusion results in way too much material extruded

      Hello...

      Is it normal for a manual extrusion (via the web interface) to extrude more material than requested? My Extruder is calibrated, by measuring the filament extruded at 100mm with the bowden detached from the hotend... as measured it is within .5mm when extruding 100mm. However, if extruding through the hotend at temp, I literally get 10x what is requested. If I tell it to extrude 1mm at 1mm/sec, I get nothing for a second or two, then 10mm will come out, at a nice steady pace. If I request 5mm, about 50mm will come out. At times the delay before it starts can be 3 or 4 seconds as well, but is usually a second or two, and very little delay if doing extrudes quickly one after another.

      It would be understandable if a little extra came out due to gravity and with a delay due to the bowden (I'm on a delta), but this seems a bit extreme to say the least, and the material extruded is not thinning out as if being stretched. While I have been fighting extrusion issues during prints, (I get symptoms of both under and over extrusion at the same time), but during a print, there is no way I am over extruding by 10x, so that is only happening on the manual extrude.

      So, normal or no? This is on a Rostock Max delta, using PLA at between 195 and 210c.

      Thanks

      Nor are they available in 30mm (or 25). I have a couple of the 40's, I may try to design a duct for them, although there may be something floating out there already.

      Thanks

    • Stack Overflow error when running G32 from gcode print file

      Hello...

      I've worked my way through most Z probe/FSR issues, and it all works, until, I try to add G32 to the start code in my slicer. When that code is run, it hits the G32 line then gives me an "insufficient axes homed", then a bunch of Stack Overfows. It then continues with the rest of the code, which goes terribly wrong...

      The calibration works when I hit the button or run G32, and there is a G28 in the bed file, all work, but when G32 is run from the Gcode, no go.

      Here are some relevant files...

    • RE: Yet another "help with my FSR setup" thread...

      I think I get it now, I was thinking the trigger height was relative to the homed height, but it is in fact the difference between the actual bed surface and the amount it dips before triggering. That makes more sense and answers the questions above.

      Slowly wrapping my head my head around all this...

      Another question...

      https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Calibrating_a_delta_printer

      Measuring the trigger height

      2. Cancel any existing bed compensation by sending M561
      3. Send M208 S1 Z-3 to temporarily allow Z moves down to Z=-3mm. This is to ensure that you can lower the nozzle all the way to the bed in step 5.
      4. Command the print head to the XY coordinates you want to probe
      5. Command the print head down in small steps until the nozzle just touches the bed or just grips a sheet of paper. You may need to send M564 S0 to allow movement lower than where the firmware thinks Z=0 is. You may also wish to create a macro to lower the head by e.g. 0.02mm to get greater accuracy (G91 followed by G1 Z-0.02).
      6. Send G92 Z0 to define that height as Z=0
      7. Command the nozzle up 5mm (G1 Z5)
      8. Send G30 S-1 to probe the bed without resetting the Z=0 position
      9. Read off the Z height from the web interface. That is the trigger height.
      10. Repeat the previous two steps a couple of times to make sure you are getting a consistent result
      11. Repeat steps 4-10 for the other XY positions you want to check

      When you have established what the trigger height is, set the Z parameter og the G31 command in config.g to that value.

      SO, I do the steps as listed, and enter in -.2 as the trigger height as measured by the probe and enter that to the G31 in config.g and restart firmware. In the next section it has me check the Repeatability, I do those couple steps, but my trigger height is now -3.6. This is because the G92 Z0 in the last section is lost after I change the height in the config.g and restart. I originally had to move Z to -3.4 to do the paper test at which point I did the G92 Z0 and the probes.

      Does that matter? Do I need to change the trigger height to the new value? Or change my printable height to be more accurate (looks to be 3.4 or so too short in the M665). I'm not sure I understand the point of resetting Z if that is thrown out after a restart, nullifying the trigger height.

      confused yet? I am...

      thanks

      removing the invert on the m558 has allowed me to move on. Fingers crossed for the rest...

      never mind on that last part, the manual control is disabled until I do a home all or g28, so I need to do that to follow the steps in the guide (even though the guide doesn't implicitly say to do a home first.

    • RE: Yet another "help with my FSR setup" thread...

      So I replaced the P4 with P8, and now when I do "G30 S-1" nothing happens and I get an error "Z probe already triggered at start of probing move". I noticed that in the machine status area it lists the Z probe as 1000 as the default state, and when I press the bed it drops to 0. Should that be the other way around? I currently have an i1 in the m558 line, should that be removed?

      I have also been homing the machine when I turn it on before I try to do anything else, maybe I shouldn't do that? I'll try again without doing that...

      thanks
