HELP WITH HEIGHT MAP HAS SUBSTANTIAL Z OFFSET WARNING
-
I just updated from 2.05 to 3.2 firmware and have changed out springs on my heated bed for a silicone solution.
I am trying to do a Mesh Bed Leveling with just 4 points to just get the mounts in the exact position. (I use the DC42 IR Probe)
I keep receiving the error:
1/8/2021, 12:35:31 PM G29
Warning: the height map has a substantial Z offset. Suggest use Z-probe to establish Z=0 datum, then re-probe the mesh.
4 points probed, min error -0.515, max error -0.398, mean -0.447, deviation 0.048
Height map saved to file 0:/sys/heightmap.csvI have tried to write a Macro to do the leveling and am not sure where I got crossed up. ANYONE THAT CAN HELP, I'm sure it's something simple.

M308 S1 P"e0temp" Y"thermistor" T100000 B4725 ; configure sensor 1 as thermistor on pin e0temp
you are missing the c parameter for your thermistors.
after you changed that you need to pid tune both bed and hotend again.
you really need to keep your files seperate.
homing should only do homing.
what you want to do is write a macro that does the things in sequence
the problem could be that you are using z screw leveling without another z=0 determination.

I did PID tune both hotend and bed thermistors and copied results into my config.g. I'm working on separating out the homing scripts. How do I get a another z=0 determination that is where I've been struggling. Attached are my cleaned up home scripts

you tuned with the wrong thermistor settings.

i would recommend you remove G29 S1 ; load heightmap
from the homing. -
I'm still confused on the Thermistor settings
here is my Bed Thermistor (E3D mains powered heat bed with E3D thermistor (B4725 from E3D documentation)

can you link that, because its wrong. its missing the C parameter

@Veti here is link to Wiki for Duet (I'm running Duet 2 Ethernet board) says Duet 3 needs C but Duet 2 doesnt?

it doesnt say that at all.
the duet 2 example is for a completely different thermistor. -
@Veti
I see it now. I used the configurator then did PID and thought I was good. How does this look?; Heaters

dont forget to pid tune again. because you were operating at the wrong temperature

@Veti
I will definitely do that. I'm just fighting this homing mess. G28 Z throws an error and says insufficient axes homed. this is after I did G28 Y and G28 X it won't let me use G28 Z -
thats because you modified the homez and removed the H2 part
-
@Veti
Thank You!!!!!!!!! I truly appreciate your help. Now I have a baseline I can build from. PID tune in progress -
@Veti
OK, I have re-run PID tuning on bed 1st then hotend. I have trimmed down my config files I believe. I am running G32 which homes all then probes center then probes each side lead screws. I then run G1 X137 Y156 Z5 to move the print head to the center of the bed. I then run G30 to get a zero value followed by G29. When done my mesh is a mess and the original z in the center of the bed is WAY BELOW 0, like -.962. any ideas what may cause this? I am running a mini IR probe and probing each spot 5 times with an S value of 0. I am probing a black textured pei sheet. -
Can you show a photo of your bed surface?
Was it working at all before you updated from 2.05?
Taking a look at your latest files now.

I notice you have S0 in your M558. Delete that. The default is 0.03 and I don't think 0 is a valid way to use it.
Can you also post the results of M122 and M98 P"config.g"?

By the way, if you're using stall detection for X and Y you really only need to make a single pass. A slower second pass makes no sense in this context since a good stall needs a short sharp shock.
