Delta Autocalibration issues
-
Something to add, this problem seems to go away when I delete config-override.g, but reappears as soon as I run M500
-
post your config and overwrite

Config-override is as follows:

config.g
M665 L217config override
M665 L233.658L is the length of your diagonal rods. 217 to 233.6 is a HUGE difference. What are they really? (joint center to joint center)
-
I would also change the S7 on the last probe point to S6 or S8 so that the rod length doesn't get changed!

M350 X256 Y256 Z256 E256 I0 ; configure microstepping without interpolation
this will cause a lot of problems on a delta.
please change it to x16 with interpolationyour thermistor config is wrong 4138 is wrong
-
Well tried changing to S6 and S8, same issue with both. Tried changing to 1/16th microsteps, didn't seem to work. But I deleted config-override again, ran it with 1/16th, L=217, and S6 and it seems to work. So not exactly sure what the issue was. Some combination of the above I guess.
@Veti My thermistor seems to be reading correctly, what should it be?
-
@DukeMachine S7 can cause some strange effects if your starting figures are off as it make a few best guesses (Not exactly but similar) and the firmware calculates a best fit and will adjust the rod lengths which is bad if you know them to be a certain length so S6 or S8 ignores the rod length in the calculations which is why it generally is better to use those factors.

what specific thermistor are you using?
how do you know that they are displaying the correct temperature? at a temperature of around 200 a wrong setting can easily be off be 20 degrees. -
As big a pain as this is... if you have an unknown temp sensor, I would suggest checking it in 0C (ice slurry) and 100C (full rolling boil) water.
