2 Z motors, to endstops

Torro

No, all is running correct AFTER i homed Z.
nothing moves if Z is not homed.

Please post your full config.g as well as config-override.g, (those on duet sd card, not somewhere in your computer, to eliminate possibilty that your backup ones in computer are not up to date)

Ok, config seems to be ok. So what exactly happens if you send G28 from DWC gcode console? If nothing moves, there should be some response message from duet why nothing moves. What that message says?

Torro

Just started a print...

yesterday, there was no message from DWC.
A click on "home all" did nothing, but i couldn´t move the motors by hand anymore.

will test G28 asap

Torro

after powering up the printer, a single G28 without any parameter does nothing. the circle in the "send" button spins and spins and spins. when i click "emergency stop", a message "homing failed" appears.

then i homed only Z. works. after that, G28 works without any issue, same as the button "homeall"

aidar

That is odd. You are not supposed to be able home Z at all before X and Y are not homed. What firmware version are you using and what version of DWC?

Torro

Duet Web Control 2.0.0-RC3

Electronics: Duet WiFi 1.02 or later
Firmware: RepRapFirmware for Duet 2 WiFi/Ethernet 2.02(RTOS) (2018-12-24b1)
Duet WiFi Server Version: 1.22

@torro said in 2 Z motors, to endstops:

homeall
G91 ; relative positioning
G1 S1 X-300 Y-300 F5000 ; move quickly to X or Y endstop and stop there (first pass)
G1 S1 X-300

G1 S1 X-20 F360 ; move slowly to X axis endstop once more (second pass)
G1 S1 Y-20 ; then move slowly to Y axis endstop
M98 Phomez.g

Try changing M98 Phomez.g to G28 Z

Torro

Ok. I will try.

Torro

I didn't test it yet, but i have an idea, i could put the home Z order on top in the first line. I Guess it works...

thwe

On my CoreXY also with 2 Z-Motors and 2 Endstops (1 for Z and 1 for U - Drive 2 and 3) i have to home Z also at first.

Only for example - without any garanty - see my homeall.g:

; ##############  homeall.g -> called to home all axes  ##############

M98 Phomez.g                 ; X homing

M98 Phomex.g                 ; Y homing

M98 Phomey.g                 ; Z homing

Good to know. Thanks!

Try changing M98 Phomez.g to G28 Z

Same behaviour. I just put the m98 phomez. G in the first line of homeall.g

Now it works as expected
