Why first move of tue bed leveling is going up?

What can be wrong in the configuration or wiring?

A lot. I think of two gcodes in your config.g which might result in the behaviour you describe:

M558: is the dive height ("H") properly set?
G31: the probe offset ("Z") might be too low

Don't know what kind of probe you have - depending on that you might use two macros as well: deployprobe.g and retractprobe.g.

To put things right, you should test the function of the probe at a safe location on your bed first, before you jump right into bed levelling.

Arisoy

@infiniteloop @fcwilt I'm using a bltouch for z probe. I hommit to mention that after the bed moves up a little. The true bed leveling process continue and everything works fine. But because of that first move the probe is really close to the bed. And if the bed is not already horizontal the probe touches it and the process stops.

Here you can find my files :

In your homeall.g you have this:

G1 H2 Z5 F6000

Change the Z5 to Z10 and report back the behavior with this new setting.

@arisoy said in Why first move of tue bed leveling is going up?:

if the bed is not already horizontal the probe touches it

For one, you can increment the dive height. Another thing to do is to add a move to bed.g, ahead of the probing with G30. Something like
G1 X5 Y10 Z20 F2000
This would go to the first point to probe and lower the bed 20 mm from 0, regardless what initial Z-height you start with.

Arisoy

@infiniteloop Adding the line "G1 X5 Y10 Z20 F2000" before the G30 in the bed.g make my bed going down first. Then it goes up fast at the same time of the carriage moves in x/y to the first point.

So nothing really changed except i have a new mouvement before the problem occured.

I don't know how to do that. Can you tell me please.

With the bed is going more down when i home the z. But nothing changed with true bed leveling.

Thanks.

You can put back the Z5.

Now change the H2 parameter in the M558 command to H5. You will have to re-boot to get the config.g to be loaded again.

Let us know the behavior with this change.

Thanks.

I don't find where is this command with H2.

It's here?

Sorry my bad. It is in the M558. Trusted to my memory - I shouldn't do that.

@arisoy what's your Z M566?

Arisoy

@fcwilt The paramater was already H5 so I tried H2 But no change. I set it back to H5.

Let's try the suggestion posted previously.

Add G90 G1 X155 Y150 Z10 before the set of three G30 commands in your bed.g file and report the behavior.

Thanks.

Frederick

Arisoy

@fcwilt I already did it. And after this positioning command "G90 G1 X155 Y150 Z10" the bed did a fast move up while the bltouch is going to the first probe point then wait for the probe to be in the good place and finally did the probing work.

Please change the Z10 to Z20 and see how that affects the behavior.

It may help to post a video of what you are seeing to be sure we all understand what is happening.

Thanks.

@fcwilt Ok so i homed all axis and then i take a video from what happened.

I started the video and just after i send the G32 command.

As you can see at first the bed moves up. I don't want that at all. I want the probe to go at his place first and then the bed can moves up.

infiniteloop

@arisoy Split the G1 movement in two:

Move X/Y to whatever point you want
Lower Z to 10 or 20 mm

Possibly you can omit Z completely - at the moment, I can't verify that …

I went and watched my printer and it does what yours is doing. That initial Z movement prior to the first probe has never caused me any issues.

You could adjust the initial G1 to move to the first probe XY point.

Frederick

Arisoy

@infiniteloop I did it. I split the G1 in two. The G1 command works fine.

But after that the G30 command moves the bed up again and fast close to the probe. And then the probing starts.

So if the bed is not leveled the bed will crash to the probe during this first fast move.

I don't want to add some mouvement before the bed moves up fast. I want it to not do that. It should probe directly not move up first.

Like it's done when you home your printer. When homing the Z i can start it from the bottom and the bed will slowly search the probe. It wil not move fast and then start to probe.

A Z probe can have this issue with a bed setup like yours (and mine).

I dealt with it by having a Z endstop switch for each Z axis.

See this video which starts with the bed way out of level. It homes and "levels" using the Z endstops. At the point it is level enough that the Z probe can always do the final leveling without issue.

Bed Leveling

You might try adjusting the H5 parameter to H10 or H15 to see how that affects the behavior.

Frederick

Arisoy

@fcwilt Ok i think i'll maybe do the Z home like this too.

Thanks you all for your patience and for your help
