print finished before end of start.g

@jawsn3d

Hi again,

We still need to see the start of the file you are actually trying to print.

That's a likely source of the problem.

i retested with the cleaned .g files.

it displays probe reset, and motor current to 100% before it probes z and gives me the first probe point notification.

print file finished pops up before i get the g28 complete notification from the homeall file as well as the start.g finished notifications

current homeall since i cant seem to edit my previous post

@fcwilt

sorry about that, print file start is as follows

it never gets to displaying the m117 "al is great" so the issue is likely above that point?

Thanks.

Nothing unusual there.

And you are not getting any error messages in the DWC console?

Frederick

[JawsN3D]

@fcwilt

on full reboot i get a heater temp error as it seems to energize the hotend momentarily during bootup.

during a reload/reset that message never appears.

im thinking its time to look at the v3.4 tree and see which of the beta's is solid. i may have a corrupted 3.3?

I am currently only using 3.3. I'm not sure how it would be possible to corrupt it.

Possibly a flaky SD card? Other folks have cured unusual problems with a new card. Easy enough to try - if you've got another card.

I don't get any heater errors on reboot like you are seeing. That worries me a bit. I will take a closer look at your config.g file

Frederick

[fcwilt]

@jawsn3d

Comment out that M84 in your config.g file and see what happens.

Frederick

[JawsN3D]

@fcwilt
We're going to go grab a new SD card now. as I've had some Oddities I can't explain. Such as bouncing off the x axis and stop repeatedly. As well as the heater reading 2000 degrees Centigrade during a hard reboot.

I edited out the m84 and now suddenly it's bouncing off of the Y end stop and making lovely noises.

I will retest with a new SD card within the next 2 hours hopefully and be able to report back.

I appreciate the help and third pair of eyes on our problem if you're ever in the west suburbs of Chicagoland give me a holler I owe you as some beers.

Actually that's good.

It suggests to me the aborted printing was caused by the M84.

And removing it has revealed problems with your Y endstop wiring and/or configuration.

You can use the DWC Object Model viewer to verify the operation of your endstop sensors.

For example:

[JawsN3D]

@fcwilt
Homing has been good since I finished the new rrf3+ syntax...only in the last 2 weeks ive had it bounced off of and jamming into the end stops a few times before I ever even commented out the m-84...
It actually seems to be doing that more and more.
which is why we're going to at least swap to a different SD card for further testing.

[dc42]

@jawsn3d do you have any tool change files? You are running T0 before you run G28, so maybe there is command in tpre0.g or tpost0.g that is failing and aborting the print because an axis hasn't been homed. In RRF3.3 and later, tool change files are run regardless of the homed status.

[JawsN3D]

@dc42
I'll post those momentarily but i believe they are setup properly.
i probablt shouldnt have started futzing with that stuff since im still only using 1 tool and it defaults to T0 iirc.
its pretty much just comments since i was trying to see what would show on the paneldue before i got the "print finished " notification which pops up before start.g finishes

@dc42 @fcwilt @deckingman

well gentlemen, i believe ive narrowed further the issue.
new sd card, reloaded all of 3.3, same issue every time.

did a buncha trial and error, and, after commenting out g28 in start.g....and making sure i was parked back at the origin after homing all axis individually.
the print is under way.

same pause at the m117 "g28 begins" comment (g28 disabled)...but proceeded to print after displaying "start.g ends printing should begin"

so somehow after the g28 calls homeall we have it kick out that print finished notification.

i cant see anything out of place but at least i feel safe enough to manually home and start enabling some playtime with g32/g29 and our 4 z screws.

still cant figure out how i have a bed thats tied to the hotend temps/control....but at least i have a cube!

[deckingman]

@jawsn3d So we know the cause of the error is in the homeall.g file. The next thing would be to comment out parts of it to see exactly where about in the file the error is. One thing I notice is that your homeall file has this:

M280 P0 S160 I1      ; Re-Set the probe

I don't use a Bltouch so I can't be of much help. But in the wiki, the comments for M280 state this - quote:

"RRF3: The I parameter is no longer supported in M280. Instead, specify an inverted pin name in M950 when you create the GPIO port."

So your M280 should not have that "I1" parameter. Whether that could be the cause of your issue, I cannot say.....

[dc42]

@jawsn3d please post your homeall.g file.

[JawsN3D]

@dc42 @deckingman

i retested with the cleaned .g files.
I get the m117 the first probe Point message and then right after probing is when it indicates the print is finished. That's well after that... you may be right that is definitely a missed syntax change

@jawsn3d said in print finished before end of start.g:

G1 H2 Z5 F5 ; lift Z relative to current position

5mm/min is very very slow. That 5mm Z move would take 5 minutes to complete. Is that correct?

[JawsN3D]

@phaedrux

ah yes it should take a minute. i had it set slower to confirm homeall was being run. i never timed it but it was far longer than the x,y,z individual macros.

i havent gotten around to commenting out homeall from the bottom (g30) up and do some trial and error testing with g28 re-enabled in start.g

we sorta have it pulled apart at the moment, trying to do optical end stops for a "softer" home stop, as well as a second x endstop for the y to home perpendicular to x.

as well as double checking the heaters/hotend wiring to make sure i only have a code problem causing the extra heater display.

so Al or I will update this as soon as possible.
