X mapping was introduced in 1.16 to support IDEX printers, so your X22 was ignored in earlier versions.

Found the issue, there is a second M906 line….doh

I got this issue solved by upgrading the firmware to 1.16 … errors all went away and heaters are working fine.

Thanks both I was looking for general settings. I'm not as familiar with Simplify 3D and just needed a 'safe' range to test with.

I am hoping that we will eventually be able to display such an image in DuetWebControl. Meanwhile, see https://forum.e3d-online.com/index.php?threads/build-plate-height-map.2320/.

@deckingman, thanks a short in the mini-circuit board in the head of my wanhao d6 blew the P0 channel for me so I had to remap it to P1.

@dc42, thanks

Otherwise it was a perfect print, and so quiet!

Well, pressure advance is even better than I originally thought! I need to update my firmware ASAP. Thanks.

The other thing you might want to add to that macro (or another macro) is to redefine the bed size (axes minima and maxima) using M208. Just a thought….....

I can see the value of being able to use previous gcode files by supporting volumetric extrusion, so I'll add it to the work list. I need to work out how it interacts with colour mixing before I implement it. It also interacts with use of relative or absolute extruder coordinates.

EDIT: it also interacts with pause/restore, and extrusion commands in the web interface and PanelDue. There's a lot to think about. Does your slicer generate the M404 command itself?

Thats not the only issue i had, after reading your comment DC42, (and haivng some other issues with prints) I discovered my steps/mm setting was off. I had it as 82.5 steps/mm instead of 80 steps/mm…

Originally, i had to fudge some of the H-values to get the circle to print correctly, now it looks great w/o the fudging! (even better). Ill edit in a picture once its completed.

Just posting this for posterity. Thanks for your help.

Server side setting storage is a feature request for RRF/DWC -

Thanks bot! That helps a lot and will give me a good place to start.

I'm very aware and conscious of the power usage being much bigger. I know plenty of other that has done this with this bed and SSRs ( http://sublimelayers.blogspot.no/2015/12/my-current-rostock-max-ultimate.html for example) and my power supply has overload protection and should be more than enough for even 24V (700W, calculated power draw should be around 510w if my multimeter is correct, running at full capacity).

I will try and see if the lag in the temperature can be fixed before i do anything else.

Thanks, colons always cause a stink 😄

almost time to print all the things!

G30 is for a Z Probe . You set the speed using the F parameter in the M558 command used to set up the probe.

If you wanted to use a Z home which is done using G28 Z, then you would set the speed in the homez.g file.

Yes, I know both about flex3drive and Zesty's extruder. But I thought to do everything myself. This is just small experiments with my delta printer in spare time.

About gearing - seems like highly geared dc motors from Pololu will be very slow with 12 CPR magnetic encoders. For example, 1:1000 geared dc motor will have only 32 RPM speed with no load.

I have also various high density (150-180 lines per inch) circular optical discs (encoders) from inkjet printers, but they are quite large (relative to motor itself).

@peridot:

Unfortunately even with the computed H values I still don't get good pre-fit deviations out of the autoprobe (and the post-fit deviations are not always great either).

That's to be expected to some extent. If you need to use H values to correct for effector tilt, then you have a geometrical error that the model used by the printer (including the auto calibration code) does not account for.

If you can't track down the geometrical error that cause effector tilt. then in the very near future you will be able to use grid-based bed compensation to compensate for the residual height errors.

@dc42:

It looks to me that you have severe under extrusion on the first layer, and slight under extrusion on top solid infill layers. This suggests to me that you are starting the first layer too high.

I'm using S3D and my "First Layer Settings" are Height 90%/Width 100%/Speed 50%.

I should point out that I'm printing with a raft.

This was the default ABS setting, do you suggest any changes to that?

Thanks! I'll take a look once I'm not tinkering with anything else.

Pfff my fault…
Extruder, heater, motor, drive... all a bit confusing 😉
