Z axis homing problem

agf998

Hi, i am building a printer, i already have the configuration files for that printer, but there is one issue.
After homing the z axis, i can move it only in the direction of the head (in this printer the bed goes up and down) so i can't work with it. Can you please help me to solve this? I will add video of the problem and the config file.

Can you please post the results of M122 and M98 P"config.g"?
Also please post your homing files.

M574 Z1 S1; Zmax, This says zmax, but Z1 means Zmin. Where is the endstop physically located?

M98 Phomeall.g; Calls to the file homeall.g Also you should not execute any movement macros or commands in config.g since it gets executed at startup. This could have some very bad consequences.

agf998

The z end stop is on the top of the printer, when i homing the bed goes up till it touch the endstop. The endstop is in the 0 location (up), and the max is 183 (down).
Actually, like cube corexy...

Phaedrux

Ok, than the command is correct, and the comment is wrong.

Will need to see the other things I've asked for to understand what may be happening though.

RepRapFirmware for Duet 2 WiFi/Ethernet version 2.01(RTOS) running on Duet Ethernet 1.02 or later + DueX2

That firmware is quite out of date at this point. Just about 3 years.

I would suggest that our first step is updating the firmware to at least 2.05.1. This would get you at least on the most recent V2 firmware and won't require any config changes like the update to V3 would. Though I would suggest that since this is a new build it's probably a good idea to update to V3 and start with a fresh config from the config tool, and then manually updating the config to suit your printer. This would also resolve the errors with your tools.

If you still have access to DWC. Upload these 3 zip files, one at a time in the system tab. Don't extract them. Reboot after each. Use M115 to verify the firmware has been applied.
https://github.com/Duet3D/RepRapFirmware/releases/download/2.05.1/Duet2Firmware-2.05.1.zip
https://github.com/Duet3D/RepRapFirmware/releases/download/3.0/Duet2and3Firmware-3.0.zip
https://github.com/Duet3D/RepRapFirmware/releases/download/3.2/Duet2and3Firmware-3.2.zip
That will get your firmware and DWC up to date.

For your config, might be a good idea to run through the configurator tool and generate a fresh set for RRF3.
