RepRapFirmware 3.0beta 11 released

G31 ; bltouch attached
Current reading 0, threshold 10, trigger height 3.50, offsets X-35.0 Y0.0

I doubt I can get readout on trigger as it lasts too short, could hookup scope if it would help but I unplugged the zprobe.in cable (so that would be the 250 we seen earlier) during G30 move and it did not trigger

if there's anything else I can do to debug lemme know

Send G31 P100. Position the BLTouch well able the bed and send G30. Push the pin up before it reaches the bed and the downward motion should stop. If it doesn't, you can cut the power before it reaches the bed.

If the reading is 250 with nothing connected, I expect the BLTouch to give that reading when triggered too.

tried that, didn't help, if you look at the last copy/paste from console threshold is 10, I tried 200, 100, 50 and 10 same issue, never triggers, I even disconnected the cable during G30 move (assuming long 250 read will happen) but nothing bed just keep raising

Thanks for trying. I'll bench test a BLTouch with this firmware tomorrow.

@smece, which model of Duet are you running RRF3 on?

A Former User

duet2eth, iirc 1.0.2 was on the board

dc42

Thanks. I found the problem, ir affects type 8 (unfiltered digital) and 9 (BLTouch) Z probes. The reading when triggered is 250 instead of 1000. So setting the G31 P parameter to less than 250 should fix it. The machine with a Duet WiFi that I used for testing has a type 8 probe (Smart Effector) but the G31 P parameter is set to 100. So that's why I didn't experience the problem.

sorry no 1.2 was on the small ethernet board that I lost so I got a replacement from aliexpress, no clue if any version is on the board itself, will try to check but not easy to get to it now

No need, I've found the reason.

cool, but I'm not triggering with a 100 neither

lemme try again with new config.g uploaded and restarted

don't work I'm back to 3b10 (works ok with 3b10)

Added DotStar LED support on Duet 3 main board

Any documentation on this yet?

Disregard that last - looked through the code and found it in the gcode documentation under:
M150: Set LED colours

It works for me. Tested using a BLTouch connected to zprobe.in and exp.heater3, G31 P value set to 100.

It's possible that you have a G31 command in config-override.g.

btw you don't need the M401 and M402 commands in your homez file, because probe deployment/retraction is done automatically (this has been the case for many firmware versions).

How to update Duet 3? Upload Duet3Firmware_MB6HC.bin on web.. and nothing.

the IAP file is probably the same if its not listed on the beta11 release

@bearer yes, work. install beta11

hm, that's not good

I did not create it, I don't see it trough web interface..

btw you don't need the M401 and M402 commands in your homez file, because probe deployment/retraction is done automatically (this has been the case for many firmware versions).

so G30 auto deploy/retract? nice.. but I'm now more concerned that after G30 I touch the probe, the probe detects me, bed still moves, the probe deploy again, touch again, detect again, deploy again .. bed still moving etc etc.. so no bed stop and no retraction happening at all (G30 not finishing) .. exactly the same config on b10 works, b11 don't. tried G31 P10, P100, P200 .. It's not a working printer (yet) so not a big deal but if there's anything I can help debug lemme know (I can hook up oscilloscope or .. ) .. this is supposedly original bltouch v3 .. but "original" when bltouch is can be tricky ... I have 2 "original" (from "original aliexpress store" paid original price), I have 2-3 clones too that I can try also .. might be the timing issue and not only the trigger level?
