RE: Input Shaping
@jay_s_uk Apparently that was the issue. I bought a USB 3.0 cable and made it up and now its working. Don't know what to do with that data yet but thats a different issue. I'm making progress thanks to the help. Thank you.

RE: IDEX U Axis calibration
@droftarts adding a code example for the G10 showing the offsets and explaining how one get them. I’m any case, I’m complete I think.

RE: Configuring Multiple Probes/Endstops
@droftarts They are both named correctly IAW your instructions. Here are the files:
; deployprobe0.g ; called to deploy a physical Z probe ; ; generated by RepRapFirmware Configuration Tool v3.5.4 on Sat Aug 10 2024 17:00:40 GMT-0400 (Eastern Daylight Time) M280 P0 S10 ; deploy BLTouch

I might have a bad crimp. I'm going to redo the connection.
@droftarts said in Configuring Multiple Probes/Endstops:
What reading for the Z probe is reported in DWC?
Where do I find this? Dashboard?
UPDATE: I found the issue. Conducting further tests to confirm. I must have had a bad crimp/connection. I made a whole new wire and now it deploys on command. The connectors on the Roto toolboard are so tiny that crimps are kinda tough. So much as a couple frayed wires and ya lose continuity.

RE: I am at a loss
@Phaedrux so that was one thing I just figured out. I unplugged one motor and homed Y. I repeated this for each motor and discovered how the obvious escapes me sometimes. The motors are mirrored so obviously one would be backwards. Fixed that now moving on. Still trying to get a complete homing cycle. Thank you very much for the reply.

RE: WIFI Antenna Mounting
@Phaedrux Yes I found it. I had two wires swapped on the U axis endstop. Thank you very much. I'm still not up and running but its progress. WIFI Module fires right up now.

RE: Warning: Driver 1 warning: over temperature warning
@moth4017 so I lowered it to 1900. Repeated the G32 that was triggering the error and it completed this time. I'm pretty sure that will be enough current. If not, now I know I will have to add additional cooling to the boards. I may end up doing that anyway. Thank you for the help but I think you've solved my issue for now.

RE: Warning: Driver 1 warning: over temperature warning
@Phaedrux Ok so my board is mounted horizontally with 10mm of air on the bottom side. I am going to raise that amount as much as I can and add a 24v blower wired to "Always on" that will blow across the bottom of the board on the drivers. Also, I turned down the current to 65%. I don't plan on speed printing with this printer so I will run some tests to see if that's enough. Based on your advice these items will resolve my issue. It will take some time to complete the hardware adjustments so for now I will consider this issue solved until I can run some additional tests. That is, unless you disagree?

RE: Home Z incorrect position
@droftarts Have you given up on me? We're almost done! I'd like to eliminate the error if it's a problem. Let me know what I need to do.

RE: Home Z incorrect position
@droftarts I think I found why it left out so much. Bed size is not correct. Fixing it now in the mesh.g. The M557 line should read M557 X19:188 Y15:210 P10 . The info you asked for is below. Is this how we fix the height map warning?
M557 X25:175 Y25:175 P10 ; Define grid for mesh bed compensation, origin in bed centre G29 S2 ; Disable mesh bed compensation G28 Z ; Home Z G1 Z6 ; To avoid backlash move to point higher than start of calibration M558.1 K1 S2 ; Calibrate probe G1 Z6 G29 S0 K1

RE: Home Z incorrect position
@droftarts I am using the 12mm coil. The Calibration gave me a S parameter of 15. After I followed your instructions, I was able to complete the scan for the first time. However, I looks as though it should have done one more row. There's about 80mm of bed left unscanned. Also, I got a reply of:
Warning: the height map has a substantial Z offset. Suggest use Z-probe to establish Z=0 datum, then re-probe the mesh.
100 points probed, min error -0.275, max error -0.123, mean -0.220, deviation 0.041
Height map saved to file 0:/sys/heightmap.csvHow do I improve on that? Is it talking about Tram or a wavy bed? If its Tram the I can put I dial indicator on it to fix that. I'm going to continue to test at different heights pending your advice.

RE: Home Z incorrect position
@dc42 After I home with the BLTouch, the position is accurate. I fixed that yesterday so the nozzle does in fact move to 1mm above the bed on command. I've measured that the SZP is 2.7mm above the nozzle and the trigger height on the BLTouch is now accurate. What number should I have for the trigger height on the SZP and how do I get it? attaching an updated config.

RE: Home Z incorrect position
@droftarts Yea thats not it. When I home, for some reason it ends with the Nozzle 10mm above the bed (12mm for the SZP). When I execute a G29, it homes Z, calibrates the SZP, starts the scan but stops way short. Its attempting to scan at a measured height of 8mm. I'm no expert, but that doesn't seem right.
Before the error, the console answers with "g29
Scanning probe coefficients [5.032e-1, 4.463e-4, -3.360e-11, -4.840e-16], reading at trigger height 999999, rms error 0.466mm." -
RE: Home Z incorrect position
@droftarts I got a new error now: Error: Bad reading from scanning probe - try recalibrating the probe. I think its a height issue as it is very high from the bed. Like 8mm high. I do believe that being cause by another issue. I need to verify the steps/mm on my Z axis. I think it much higher than it thinks it is and can't complete the scan. Let me confirm.

RE: Home Z incorrect position
@droftarts Here is the mesh.g file again:
M557 X25:175 Y25:175 P10 ; Define grid for mesh bed compensation, origin in bed centre G29 S2 ; Disable mesh bed compensation G28 Z ; Home Z G1 Z6 ; To avoid backlash move to point higher than start of calibration M558.1 K1 S2 ; Calibrate probe G1 Z6
When I give it a G29 command from the console, all it does is home Z then calibrates the the scanner. How do I get it to scan the bed and create a mesh? I assume the problem is in the mesh.g but I copied it from the documentation.

RE: Home Z incorrect position
@OwenD Yea that's what it was. Can't believe I missed that. Now to try to figure out how to get the Z scanner to work. When I give it a G29 command from the console, all it does is home Z then calibrates the the scanner. How do I get it to scan the bed and create a mesh. I'm adding my mesh.g.

Home Z incorrect position
I have a small IDEX that I built but never finished. I'm going through the calibration process. I can't figure out why, but when I home it, X, U and Y are executed perfectly but the Z doesn't go to the center of the bed. My homeall.g and homez.g call for the center but it doesn't move there. It will execute the Z home from the X,U and Y home position. I am adding my config as well as homeall.g and homez.g. My ABL is a BLTouch and a Z Scanner. I haven't even got to the Z scanner yet. TYIA for the help!
