@capmjk said in Homing problems:
i use a duet 2 wifi on my delta and since yesterday i have a problem with homing amongst other things:
Has anything changed recently? If you haven't changed the config or firmware, I would suspect something electrical or mechanical.
-
@phaedrux thats the weird point:
I haven't changed anything. Booted up the printer after a month of pause and nothing works anymore.Did a firmware update and got it working one time normally, then homing problems again.
@theolodian good spot, but strange that it worked for 2 years until now without the missing H2.
Main problem is:
G28
Error: G0/G1: target position not reachable from current positionWhich doesn't make sense because it worked until yesterday and the target position for that move is x0 y0 which it should be after homing anyway
-
Add a move to drop the effector after homing. That error usually means that one of the towers can't move high enough to reach that XY point.
-
@phaedrux Homing works but there are other persisting problems:
For unknown reasons the printer now sometimes marks x and y as something other than 0 when homing. Also after power off, homing is not setting z height to the defined homed after homing but instead sets homed height to the position it was when power was restored basically up to doubling homed height.I never had this problem in the past i did not need to set z0 after every powerloss or emergency shutdown.
-
To help further we will need to see some more information.
config.g, homedelta.g, bed.g, config-override.g, slicer start gcode
Also the results of sending M122 and M98 P"config.g"

Do not load the heightmap in config.g
@capmjk said in Homing problems:
G29 S1
Remove this from config.g. The best place to load the heightmap is in your slicer start gcode after the auto calibration or at least after establishing the Z0 point with a single G30 at the center of the bed.
Can you post your bed.g? How are you doing the auto delta calibration?

But now it seems i need to set x,y,z manually to zero after every startup.
i got rid of the G29 S1 although its strange that is has been in there for ages without a prior problem.

You just updated your firmware though did you not?

I'm not sure how you managed to escape having to home the towers after a power cycle? The axis are marked unhomed at power on.
-
@phaedrux
in the past when the printer homed it set the height after homing to homed height (the one in the config). Now it seems the printer thinks on power on he is homed, then adds the height he travels upwards while homing the first time and adds it ontop.
Then of course he ends up at z=600-800 something and can't travel anymore because he is higher than the maximum z-height i have configured. -
@capmjk said in Homing problems:

I am not sure whether you updated, because config says RRF version 2, and M122 tells your firmware is 3.3. Your endstops may have been S0, which is not valid in 3.3 any more, you need to use S1 with a !, please check https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/RepRapFirmware_3_overview#Section_M574 first statement, if the endstops behave opposite now.
-
At first power on does the DWC think the printer is homed?
If you send M119 to check the endstop status does it think they are triggered when not actually depressed?
Have you re-run a delta auto calibration since we solved the original homing problem?
Have you removed the G29 S1 from config.g yet?
-
@phaedrux
No it tells me that no axis is homed.
M119 tells me that all endstops are working properly.
I have to run a delta calibration after every boot at the moment, else it doesn't print correctly.Have removed G29 S1 from config.g.
Still weird stuff. Have to zero x and y every time after boot. Its driving me mad even though its only 2 quick commands.
The problems arose before i updated the firmware, came out of the blue.
Well yesterday of my belts ripped so i replaced all of them. I think my printer just punishes me for organizing a second one and buying a duet 3 for the new one.
-
@capmjk update:
calibration now also needs to be done after every bootup. else the heightmap is wrong

; Endstops
M574 X1 S1 P"xstop" ; configure active-high endstop for high end on X via pin xstop
M574 Y1 S1 P"ystop" ; configure active-high endstop for high end on Y via pin ystop
M574 Z1 S1 P"zstop"I wonder why M574 sets the endstops to low end. IMO it should be X2, Y2, Z2.
-
@joergs5 thats true. I changed it but i wonder why it worked for so long.
OK now i got a different problem. Now it ALWAYS sets height after homing to the original homed height but does not save the z- value after g30
-
I may not understand your comment correctly, but homed height would only be saved if you run a delta calibration and then send M500 to save it to config-override.g.
Nothing will get saved after just sending G30. That will only be applied for the current power on cycle.
-
@capmjk you will not be able to store the Z position between reboots, because when stepper are turned off, they change position by +- 2 full steps each in worst case. It's necessary to measure Z0 position every time after power on and let set the firmware the stepper position.
Another point because you said mesh compensation is not correct: G31 is set to have 0 offset for X and Y, is this correct? Is your probe at the same XY position like the nozzle?
-
@joergs5 yes. My current probe is manually attached but centered directly below the nozzle.
i know that the current z-pos cannot be saved but before i made your change with the endstops even the homed height was gone after every power off. That is working now
@Phaedrux since i corrected the endstop position to be top side z height is not even saved within a power cycle. As an example: I moved the printer to z=0 after homing and it was 20mm above the bed. So i put g92 z25 -> moved it down until it was the correct height, put g92 z0 in, then M500 and homed. But after the homing z0 was again 20mm above the bed. So even in the power cycle it did not remember the new z0 height and instead set the original homed height after homing.

That's not how homed height is saved. You must do a delta auto calibration and then save it with M500.
