@owend ok I’ll move it and give it a shot

@owend that did the trick but now i need to turn down the amount of probe points
var MinSpace = 10 ; put default minimum spacing
var MaxSpace = 30 ; put default maximum spacing
var ProbeNumX = 8 ; put default probe points
var ProbeNumY = 8 ; put default probe points.
var ProbeCenterX = 285 ; will be updated to probe centre of print
var ProbeCenterY = 270 ; will be updated to probe centre of printwith my 100x100mm print its trying to do a 13x13 grid what do i tweak to lower that?

@owend ok after letting it 100% there were more errors

@ratrig0331
Change your minSpace and maxSpace in the macro to reduce number of probe points
Try 50 & 100The G1 is my bad
I did a search and replace when I was changing the braces, but changed one that should remain a square bracketChange this line in superslicer

One down one to go I’m still getting the m557 error with the 50/100 spacing will this be normal a normal error from down sizing the bed mesh or is there a fix

@ratrig0331 the most probe points you can have on a duet 2 are 121 and on a duet 3 are 441
-
@jay_s_uk too many points isn’t the issue I think, it must be too few points? With the settings first told to me it wanted to do a 13x12 grid on a 100mmx100mm print 156 points total, than I changed the min max to 50/100 and it only probed the middle and 4 conners and gave the same error
-
I believe the problem you are having is that I didn't allow for a probe that was offset to the other side of the extruder to mine.

@ratrig0331 the minimum spacing between points allowed is 0.1mm in each of X and Y. "Spacing too small" means you have tried to specify a smaller spacing than that.
-
@dc42 said in Only probe where the part will be printed:
the minimum spacing between points allowed is 0.1mm in each of X and Y. "Spacing too small" means you have tried to specify a smaller spacing than that.
In that case I'm at a bit of a loss how @RatRig0331 is getting that error using my code.
It's early morning here (Australia) and I have to go to work, so I can't look at till I get home.
@RatRig0331 Can you please un-comment all the lines in the mesh.g that show the calculations and post the output from the console.At the start I work out the maximum possible number of probes if a full bed was done using maxSpace.
Later I use the object size to recalculate the number of probes also using maxSpacing.
The lesser of these two numbers is used (or should be).There must be a fundamental flaw in my logic (at least with your bed size and probe configuration).
It also occurs to me that I haven't catered for deltas or printers where X0, Y0 is in the center of the bed.

The turning off of the heaters is deliberate and is done in mesh.g
I find that the accuracy of my bltouch suffers if they are on when probing
I run a 240v bed.
I'll have a look later and add an option to not turn off heaters. -
@owend you can turn off heaters temporarily during probing by using the B1 parameter in your M558 command.
-
@dc42
Roger that..
That makes that section of code superfluous.
Does it turn off the bed heater as well? -
@ratrig0331 said in Only probe where the part will be printed:
You can remove these lines in your slicer as you have set your temps elsewhere in your start code.
