I can't think of any reason why it would skip any commands. Please can you test whether the same issue occurs with firmware 3.2RC2.

I need to go cut some more stock out of my sheet of MDF to try this again. But my son just noticed that even the first one isn't cut correctly. If you look carefully at about the 3:00 position you'll see another much less serious case where the head didn't fully lift before doing the movement.
Could this be related to the mixing of the G0 and G1 commands? Could one of them be "interrupting" the earlier command?
I'll have the results with the beta firmware in an hour or so.
Here's an example of the gcode The lift doesn't complete before the head moves:
G1 X100.404 Z-1.5
G1 Y95.405 Z-0.001
; MOVEMENT_RAPID
G0 Z5 F300
G0 X84.976 Y75.025 F2500
G0 Z3 F300
; MOVEMENT_LEAD_IN
G1 Z-0.001 F1905
; MOVEMENT_CUTTING
G1 X87.096 Z-1.5
G1 Y72.905 Z-0.001 -
Alright, I just completed two more rounds of that same gcode using the beta firmware.

Probing with my z-probe now appears to be unreliable. It either doesn't probe downward, or probes downward very little. This was very reliable before. I couldn't find any documentation related to changes in this area. Did I miss something?
-
After the upgrade I lost my CNC specific web control software. Could this have been the problem? Is there a version of the CNC specific web interface that is approved/safe for the beta firmware?
Those two issues noted: Both cuts completed without error. Here are the "after" photos:

Would need some more details on your probe.
I do notice that your configuration for the probe is missing some parameters.

@Phaedrux The z-probe is just a machined touch plate. Basically it acts like a switch, but really it is just measuring current passing through the tool itself into the touch plate. Well, to be brutally specific, the tool is "ground" and the current source is the touch plate. x-y offset should be zero, as the tool itself makes the contact and there is no offset. The z-offset is 1 inch.
I haven't been able to figure out how to get G30 to do anything like what I need. I've pasted the macro I use to set my z0 below. Should this be possible from a G30 command? How?
The behavior of this macro seemed to be different with the new firmware. I've had to update my "dive height" with an h-parameter in M558 so that it probes toward the workpiece more than just a handful of mm.
z_probe.g macro

G91 ; Set Relative Mode
G38.2 Z P0 ; probe in the z direction
G10 L20 P1 Z25.4 ; set the z-height of WCS 1 to 1 inch
G0 Z50 ; rise up around 25mm to remove the z-plate
G90 ; Set Absolute Mode -

Try adding P500 to G31 as well
Does G30 work now?
I'm not as familiar with g38 for CNC
https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Gcode?revisionid=HEAD#Section_G38_2_to_G38_5_Straight_Probe
-
@Phaedrux Well, that just cost me a bit and damaged my touch-pate.
I ran "g30" and the head dropped carefully down till it touched the plate... and then drove the v-bit straight down into the plate until the motors couldn't drive any further... badly scratching the touch plate and chipping the bit.
So, what I would like to have seen it do is STOP when it made contact with the touch plate.
So, how is G30 supposed to work?
-
Well g30 should stop when triggered provided the trigger pin is configured correctly, but I'm not a CNC user at all, so I'm not sue what else could be going on.
If the macro you have using G38.2 works as you expect that should be fine.
Only thing I can think of is to remove the K0 from M558 since you only have a single probe anyway.
-
@Phaedrux but the problem I seem to be having with BOTH of these is that the directions are very backwards. instead of lifting on a g30 contact it is diving. And instead of probing DOWN towards the touchplate with the G38 command it is probing UP.
Does the beta firmware probing not pay attention to which direction is positive on my z-axis? This used to work.
-
Ok, I think I may have found it. The dive height I set negative becase it was probing the wrong direction... that seemed to have unintended consequences. So it is no longer diving after touching the plate.
... -
Ok, so here's the problem I've got with G30. It probes the bed and sets the machine coordinates.
That isn't helpful. I need the WCS coordinates to be updated to z0.

That would do it.

Ok, so does G38.2 and the macro you have do what you're needing?
-
Ok, the machine seems to be performing mostly correctly now. I'm still seeing my macro probing the wrong direction occasionally, but I haven't caught it doing that in the last half-our. So I'm going to mark this as "solved" since my problem of the head occasionally not lifting seems to be fixed by the updated firmware.
If I can find a clear pattern for when the probing macro probes "towards the workpiece" in the wrong direction I'll open another question.
Thanks again for the great support!
