@T3P3Tony thx, this seems to work even when set to 40 hours, thx

M208 defines the length of the axis.

Your 0,0 point should be the front left corner of the bed where the nozzle can actually print. The M208 maximum is the farthest point from 0,0 that the axis can safely move the nozzle tip.

According to your config,g your endstops are on the low end of travel, so they should be on the left and front side of the plate.
-x moves should move to the left, +x to the right
-y moves should move to the front, +y to the back

If this is not the case, you need to sort that out first as that may be the root of the problem.

If this is accurate for your setup, and you want to measure the M208 min and max accurately, try this:

Send M564 H0 S0 to allow you to move the print head anywhere ignoring any limits. Be careful now as you can crash your print head.

Jog your nozzle to where you want 0,0 to be.
Send G92 X0 Y0 to set that point as 0,0
Send G1 H3 X-50 F300 to set the endstop trigger point as the m208 x axis minimum
Send G1 H3 Y-50 F300 to set the Y minimum

Now you can jog your print head to the maximum side of each axis until the nozzle is at the farthest usable point. Make note of the X and Y position.

Send M208 X### where ### is the position you noted for X
Do the same for Y with M208 Y###

Now send M208 by itself and the firmware will report the actual minimum and maximum positions of your bed size. Compare that to what you have in your config,g for M208.

; Axis Limits M208 X0 Y0 Z0 S1 ; set axis minima M208 X230 Y230 Z250 S0 ; set axis maxima

How does it compare?

My first thoughts would be mechanical, but please update to 3.5.1 as there were some issues with skipped steps occasionally, but this doesn't sound applicable to me.

Can you share some more information if the firmware update doesn't help? config.g and a sample gcode of your moves. Maybe some more detail of the hardware? Is 1A current sufficient for the motors?

When you solve this. please be sure to post what it was that worked.

@dc42 I see, and M30 as it is is probably originating from Marlin, right? Then i I guess they will stay both and it is up to the user to use them. Thank you!

@Exerqtor IMO, docs should be brought up to par with klipper. things like interpreting the graphs, looking at not just shaping but mechanical issues, loose belts etc.... it would also be nice if the plugin would give suggested freq and accelerations.

I also find the orientation chart confusing as hell for the accelerometer, especially when it's using a 1LC as guide when not everyone uses one of those.

@Jered No problem! You could likely use the same technique, combined with the bed scanner, to get an even quicker read of just the print area before each print.

@usinjin

First off, I am no expert with tuning the 1HCLs. That being said I have been using them since they first came out.

I would drop your D value down to D0.1. That will immediately quiet them down, and I found it to have little impact on the performance.

I would also increase your P value. The auto tuning function tried setting my P value down in the 20-ish range like yours and I noticed very poor performance. Just for testing sake I would try a higher number like R100.

The other thing that might help is to post a picture of your tuning graph.

@oliof Thanks , it took a while to design the probe .
now just weeks of testing

@droftarts
You have put a lot of valuable information in a couple of lines - thanks!

Edit:
I changed the trigger3.g file this way:

echo >>"endstop_error.txt" "Endstop triggered at ", {state.time}

@gloomyandy Not the case here as it retracts and Zhops to the beginning of each line. I suspect it to be an issue with the hemera XS. I havent used this printer in like a year and put the new hemera XS on it to reduce the weight. Ill try some of the other tool heads to see if they have the same issues.

It happens even at very slow speed.

@aytact If the fan is blowing enough to cool then I think that there are two things to check.

First, is the air actually getting through the fins of the cold-end? Air has to have somewhere to go after it gets to the fins.

Second, what are your retraction settings? If there are lots of long retractions in a short time then you may be pulling molten plastic above the heatbreak.

@JRCL a CoreXZ would normally have a moving bed or moving gantry Y axis, so the same technique would be used as for a bed slinger.

@Anawandur said in I need help setting up duplication on an IDEX printer:

; Axis Limits
M208 X10 Y-3 Z0 U35 S1 ; set axis minima
M208 X335 Y255 Z240 U355 S0 ; set axis maxima

As @NeoDue says, using duplicate and mirror mode is much easier if you set your m208 limits so that XD0 Y0 is the centre of the bed. This also saved you from having to change the bed settings in the slicer depending on whether you are using duplicate/mirror mode or not.

@oliof said in Weird extrusion issue:

@LeonMF These artefacts look like Bang-Bang induced bed displacement artefacts. I guess you are using an SSR with an AC bed. If its not a zero crossing SSR, get a better SSR, and try to reduce the SSR frequency (I had luck with 1Hz in the past, but it depends on your SSR).

I'm embarrassed to admit that I defaulted to bang-bang after my last printer caused problems. I never considered it an issue as I wasn't aware that bed stability of a degree or two would be that much of a big deal. I PID tuned this printer and do not have flickering lights. It also seems to have solved my problems.

Ignore the first layer, I was a bit far away.

I have more testing to do but the preliminary results here look good.

Thank you!

@nick9one1 your M208 has Y set at -50, which is why it shows it starting at -50.
And with you Y offset for the probe of 66, to probe at Y20, the nozzle has to hang off of the bed by -46.
and the height map doesn't looks too bad

@CarlBosson Well done, that does look like a pretty nice Benchy!
