Bed Leveling compensates to 1.5~3.5 mm below printing surface
-
Hi,
I just some upgrades to my delta printer, newest firmware, cooling fan and indirect laser filament sensor.
After updates head rams hard into printing bed. Apparently it though that surface is way below the actual one. So I thought it had to do something with filament sensor so I have disconnected and disabled it in cfg.
That have not changed anything, so I have removed fan too
well who knows...
Still same thing. After examining I figured that it always compensates to 1.5~3.5 mm below the surface after restart. It seems that it triggers on right time, exactly when it bumps on surface.
Things get stranger if I don't restart the printer.
I have no idea why.config-override.g

I was trouble shooting a similar issue although on a cartesian printer. Turned out to be the trigger height set incorrectly (-ve instead of +ve).
G31 in config.g. Should this be a positive value ? Also, M666 in bed.cfg ?
-
@milangupta1 Also, where is G92 in homedelta.g ? Shouldn't that be set as the new x and y home positions before you move back to absolute positioning ..
-
after your changes did you recalibrate your delta and save the new values in the M665 and M666 command?
-
I haven't done any new changes as everything was working perfectly. Will have to go though that later today I guess.

you wrote that you did upgrades to your delta.
-
@veti
I mean I have not done changes to configuration or structure. Just added a fan and filament sensor -
This post is deleted! -
There is G90 in there so no need for G92 as much as I understand
-
as milangupta1 said. your bed config should look something like this (adjust for your bed)
and the M665 and M666 should be in the config.g; bed.g

; If your Z probe has significantly different trigger heights depending on XY position, adjust the H parameters in the G30 commands accordingly. The value of each H parameter should be (trigger height at that XY position) - (trigger height at centre of bed) -
sorry, I've labeled this incorrectly. M665 and M666 are in the config overide. Correcting post.
-
are you using mesh bed compensation?
i.e. loading the heightmap somewhere -
I've used it, but now its disabled.
-
-
@worekarolis
yes. loading it will change the z=0 based on the values in the heightmap. -
@veti
Removing it haven't changed behavior -
Hi,
The trigger height setting for your Z-probe might be wrong.
The H parameter to M665 might be wrong.
Either one can result in Z=0 not being the surface of the bed.

After updating to 2.04RC1 (2019-07-14b1) issue is gone.
Many thanks for your help!
