@gixxerfast You're right, I'll leave it be for today. I can't thank you enough for all the help, I would be nowhere without your assistance.

Gixxerfast

@re_tour No problems, happy to help out when I can

@gixxerfast I'm bosting everythin here so that it won't get lost somehow and I can better check it tomorrow Maybe someone can find it helpful as well

@gixxerfast Hey there! So today I've tried the mesh and it works! This is what I see after running it:
3dc79a59-05f3-40c1-8ebe-e15e64d77d03-kép.png
So now all is left is to slice the things I want in Cura and upload the gcode which I get?

re_tour

So I started the print, and the filament started to go in the opposite direction. I haven't the slightest clue why.

Gixxerfast

@re_tour Hi there, reverse the extruder motor

@gixxerfast said in Ender 3 RRF v1.1 setting up BLtouch:

M569 P3 S0

Thank you so much. Do I have to reverse it every time I turn the printer on or was it just an initial setting mistake I didn't pay attention to?

Gixxerfast

@re_tour No, just change it once in config.g and it wasn't a mistake. Really hard to know how the wires are supposed to be, just as long as the pairs are correct it's good. Many has to adjust that AFAIK.

re_tour

@gixxerfast Thank you very much!

re_tour

@gixxerfast So I didn't input that change into the config.g yet, but wrote it into the console. Printed 2 things, the strange thing is that at the end of each print the mechanism pulls the filament all the way out. Why could that be?

Gixxerfast

@re_tour You must have something wonky in your slicer. Check if there some custom end print gcode in Cura (it was Cura you were using, right?)

re_tour

@gixxerfast Yes sir, let me check.

@gixxerfast This is the last few lines of the first gcode:

G1 E-2 F2700 ;Retract a bit G1 E-2 Z0.2 F2400 ;Retract and raise Z

I really don't have a clue. I'm just guessing but...

Try to find where these are inserted

And comment them out /remove them.

See if it makes any difference.

re_tour

@gixxerfast You were right, G1 E-2 F2700 pulls the filament nearly all the way out. Thank you (once again)

Gixxerfast

@re_tour That's great!
Happy printing!

I think you might have to revisit the offset configuration. The mesh looked a bit shifted. But that's for another day

and as long as it prints and you get the first layer right, it works
