XY shift after power fail

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

Any thoughts on what's happening?
looking at your resurrect.g file, it seems that you use object cancellation to just print the triangle from a file with multiple objects. I have no solution at hand, but to pin down the problem, could you perhaps isolate the triangle into a file with nothing else in it?
Then, the two M486 gcodes should be missing from the resurrect.g - check that before you restart the print, and in case they are still there, remove these lines. The question is: is the triangle still not to scale?
Interesting idea. The little triangle was created on Superslicer as a shape and modifier. To see if that has any effect, I created a one piece object on F360 to test that. The resulting print (image) exhibited the same offset:
The ressurect file still has M486 lines, as below. I commented these out but it didn't help.
M486 S0 A"Macro test 2 id:0 copy 0"
M486 S0G17 -
@infiniteloop I had another thought, which lead me to do a double power fail to see if the layer shift happened every time, but it only occurred at the first power fail. This test piece shows the updated test piece with a layer shift of the same magnitude (X-0.3, Y -3.5) for the first power fail, and aligned on the second power fail - a witness line shows where the restart happened.

@tomf The result of your double power fail is interesting: seems that resurect.g shifts X and Y consistently. I propose to try this:
Comment-out any homing commands from your start.g and from the start section (if any) of your slicer. Instead, before starting the test print, home X/Y withG28 X Y(home Z as usual, that doesn't matter here). If you still see the layer shift after power-off, we have to look where the origin of X/Y might eventually be re-defined. In case the layer shift is gone, we can focus on your homing macros. -

I don't know what but I really appreciate your input!
I don't have a start.g, instead I have homng and bed levelling in the slicer start code. I will change that and move the homing commands to to a start.g. I'll run again and report the findings. -
Can you post your slicer start gcode or better yet the first 50 lines or so of your sliced gcode file?
I can see some oddities in your config.g but nothing I think would cause the offset.

Here is the start code from my slicer.
Looking at your slicer's start code, I suggest you to retry the procedure I proposed in a previous post - with one additional step:
Append this line from the slicer's start script to your resurrect-prologue.g:
M564 S0
I'm really curious what happens
Edit: Another thing worth trying is to remove the priming block (enclosed by the
M564gcodes) from the start code before you slice the test print. I still don't know from where the offset originates: from the initial setup or from the retry after power failure. -
@infiniteloop said in XY shift after power fail:
M564 S0
Sorry, that didn't make any difference.
Neither did moving the home & levelling routines from the slicer to a start.g file
Neither did changing the purge line on the slicer's start gcode to be entirely within the axis boundary.
EDIT: Neither did commenting out the prime line block of the slicer start code.All these give a consistent XY offset of (-0.3, -3.5).
Not sure what to do from here.

If the offset is consistent as a temporary fix could you not add a relative G1 move somewhere to adjust for it?

You may need to add a G4 S1 delay between these commands.

The command doesn't match the comments here. You should remove that G29 S1 from config.g. You don't want to load the mesh until you've established Z0 with the probe anyway. Load it in your start gcode after homing and leveling.

Have you tested yet with a file that doesn't have object cancelation ?
-
@tomf said in XY shift after power fail:
Not sure what to do from here.
Well, look where the weird offset originates from. At least, we now can exclude some culprits:
- config.g - this file is run by the MCU after each reset of power-off, setting the system into a consistent state
- homex.g and homey.g - these cannot produce the offsets, a fact you have verified with your "double power failure" experiment.
- start.g (and the purging section in the slicer's start code). You've tested and modified that as well.
That's a lot of gcodes we now can ignore. Furthermore, resurrect.g does a pretty good job in freezing the state of all imaginable parameters it holds in its object model - it works as expected (see your second "power failure).
Which brings me to the following thesis: from the view of RepRap, the x/y coordinates prior to a power failure are "wrong" (i.e. unknown to the object model). Either you execute a macro I'm not aware of before starting the print - must then be something very special
ā¦ Or the slicer "knows" something about your printer's geometry which the object model of the Duet isn't aware of, i.e. nozzle offsets etc. When resurrect.g is called, it jumps right into the middle of the print file, thus ignoring the foreplay which the slicer celebrates at the beginning.To verify my thesis, you could strip-off the intro from the .gcode file - use a bare text editor, look for the first G1 codes with X, Y and E parameters. But caution: the nozzle height must be prepared to fit for the first layer, so set Z to something like 0.2 mm before running the stripped .gcode file.
If you think this is too risky, go through the prefs of your slicer (can't give you hints, I have no knowledge of SuperSlicer) and look for any X/Y offsets you inserted for your printer: nozzle, center of printhead, Z-probe, etc. Maybe you get a clue? Then, slice again.
Good luck!

@phaedrux said in XY shift after power fail:

Yes. In the test in reply to @infiniteloop from 25 Jan @07:40 EST I commented out the M486 lines and it didn't help.
-
Might be onto something... but how to fix??
Having done lots of tests I wondered if I had missed something so I decided to re-run some again. Photo for test #5 is the interesting one but I'll run through the others.
-
Superslicer with all normal start gcode, inclusive of XYZ homing, mesh levelling and prime line, but no going outside the XY boundaries for the prime line. Power off mid print, move head out the way manually and restart using M916. Result is that the offset is the same as before (X-.3, Y-3.5)
-
As 1 but comment out the M486 'cancellation' lines in ressurect.g. Same result.
-
As 1 but delete the M564 S0 code from ressurect-prologue.g (I had left it in from previous tests). Same result
-
Comment out the home and mesh levelling routines from the slicer. Manually home, but no mesh levelling. No change.
-
As 4 but also comment out the prime lines. NO LAYER SHIFT, hooray!
-
Repeat 5. Unfortunately this time the layer shift was back as before.
Clearly very odd, but I noticed something that had been happening but that I was ignoring. I was getting error messages (2 examples below, the second relates to test 6) EXCEPT that there was no error message associated with test 5.
