@droftarts Thanks . The problem is i updated to 3.2.2 and removed the space in the config. g file so am not really sure what solved what. Always an issue changing more things at once and I'm kicking myself for not doing them individually
@phil-maddox Open your config files in a text editor and search for "bed" Eventually you'll find it.
I believe there was a change at some point where before only uppercase Gcodes were accepted, but now lower case is also accepted. Perhaps the error was there all along but was just being ignored before.
Ah!
After running the bed compensation you still need to load the map before a print or in config.g (G29 S1 / M375) and it is not there by default or just by running mesh compensation.
Don't know why I didn't think of it before; guess it shows I have the rest of the system adjusted reasonably well already that this did not matter too much.
Well, at least it is still a pretty graph đŸ™‚
After a successful G29 probing run, mesh bed compensation will be in use. Resetting the printer, or running G32 (for example, to recalibrate a delta printer) will clear it and you will need to run G29 S1 if you want to use mesh compensation without probing again.
Great thanks. Is there any advantage to having a bed.g file ??
I have the Duet installed on my main printer that i use for long prints and plan on probing the bed prior to each print.
I don't think it matters much but if you edit config.g file, you have to restart the Duet for the changes to make effect whilst bed.g is effectively a macro. So you can alter the bed.g file without having to reboot the duet. Having the coordinates in a separate bed.g file also makes them a bit easier to find, rather than scrolling through the entire config.g file. Having said all that, changing the probe coordinates once they have been set is rarely, if ever done. Just my twopence worth…....
I am using the 1/16 with interpolation and can see no reason to change, its very quiet, almost no motor noise and yet I can get 250mm/s movement speeds.
So if there is another mode which can achieve the same smooth, quiet operation and yet still manage the higher speed levels, great…
