Correction of heightmap is not really working
-
The current approach that the DWC expects is this:
- the file mesh.g is used to create the height map needed for Mesh Bed Compensation.
- the file bed.g is used for Manual or Automatic Bed Leveling.
A G29 command executes mesh.g and creates the height map.
To use the height map you would have a G29 S1 command somewhere in your print start code.
A G32 command executes bed.g.
I use G32 as part of my home all code.
So it looks like you are already using the correct approach.

@fcwilt
Thank you very very much, I will give it a try -
@fcwilt
I got this -
Does that command need a ; in front of it ?
-
Sorry there is a missing comment in front of that line.
It should be this:
; --- set Z=0 datum which can be affected by leveling --- G1 X270 Y270 ; move probe to center of bed - set values aaa and bbb as appropriate G30 ; do single probe which sets Z to trigger height of Z probePrinters: A FT-5 with the 713 upgrade bits, a custom MarkForged style, a small Utilmaker style, a small CoreXY from kit and a E3D MS/TC setup.

Ok now I cant get the bed tilt leveling right.
I am not understanding the placement of z screwsbed.g M671 , needs to match the config.g M671 correct ??
M671 X-189:640:640:-189 Y643:643:-64:-64 S10 Anticlockwise- why does it say anticlockwise
- In my bed.g it says to run the probe pattern -
; run leveling pass G30 P0 X5 Y5 Z-99999 ; probe near a leadscrew G30 P1 X570 Y5 Z-99999 ; probe near a leadscrew G30 P2 X570 Y580 Z-99999 ; probe near a leadscrew G30 P3 X5 Y580 Z-99999 S4 ; probe near a leadscrew and calibrate 4 motorsBut that is running from the left rear , clockwise
But when it runs the Tilt calibration, it starts at the front left and go's to the front right, and so on, Anticlockwise.
In the Gcode Directory it examples M671 going clockwise
I am stumped !!
-
@fcwilt
also If I skip the tilt calibration and go to Bed compensation,
I can strategically place a high spot under one of the probe points.
and it shows me that the map is 90 deg out.
to correct it, it would have to turn 90 deg Anticlockwise.if that helps
-
Since we are putting everything related to bed leveling in bed.g there should not be a M671 command in config.g.
I don't know why it says "anticlockwise" - I did not put that there.
As I recall what does need to match up is the order of the Z steppers in the M584 command and the order of the positions specified in the M671 command.
I also have the G30 commands probe the bed in the order specified in the M671 command though I don't know if that is a requirement.
But my bed leveling works so it doesn't hurt to keep everything in the same order, even if it is not required.
The height map is not related to anything being done in bed leveling.

Ok so still having some problems
We are following these instructions for setting the Z=0 datumWe run the Z offset macro that you made to move to the center of the bed
and probe to set the config_probe.g G31 ZWe got a reading of 1.752
So we changed that in the Config.probe.g
(do we need to change it anywhere else ? for example mesh.g
? global_mesh_g in config.g file ? )Then we run your probe in center of be code - With a added Z0
G1 X{((move.axes[0].max + move.axes[0].min) / 2) - sensors.probes[0].offsets[0]}, Y{((move.axes[1].max + move.axes[1].min) / 2) - sensors.probes[0].offsets[1]}, F1800 Z0It should be at the same 1.752 but it is not. Its further away from the
bed than that by .40so we go back and add that .40 to the 1.752 = 2.152 in the config.probe.g
it didn't work. we are still further away.
its not saving it for some reason.
-
Where are you executing the G30 at the center of the bed to set the Z=0 Datum?
Frederick
-
@fcwilt
Yes, that is where we are executing it from, the center of the bed. -

@fcwilt
Yes, that is where we are executing it from, the center of the bed.Sorry I wasn't clear. In your post I didn't see you mention that you were executing a G30.
When are you doing that?
In what bit of code are you doing that?

@fcwilt
We are running the z-offset calibration with the G30 in it
after we run the z probe calibration -
OK I see now.
A few things to mention:
-
For the other person I had shown how to use a variable to set the G31 Z Trigger Height setting. You have created the variable but I don't see that you are using it in config_probe.g.
Using the variable is optional. If you are not going to use it in config_probe.g then you can remove any other code referencing the variable. -
You mention using the formula to move to the center of the bed with Z0 added. But you show it after the F parameter without a comma separating from the F parameter. I don't believe it actual does anything without the comma. What was the intent of executing this command?
-
Anytime you change anything in your config_probe.g file you need to be sure it is executed before you attempt to use the new setting(s) in the file.

So I don't switch out build plates, Just run a lot of the same material.
I know he wanted that extra part to change out plates.
So how do I need to change that. -
So I need change my config_probe.g Z setting back to
global.g_probe_z_trigger
like this; config_probe.g ; config the probe and call the other files.g M558 P9 C"^zprobe.in" H5 F120 T6000 A1 R1 M950 S0 C"duex.pwm5" G31 P25 X0 Y-30 Z{global.g_probe_z_trigger} ; set Z probe trigger value, offset and trigger height (larger value is closer)G31 P500 X0 Y-30 Z1.73 -
You don't need to use the variable I all. I don't use one. I just have the constant value for the Z Trigger Height parameter in my config_probe.g file.
If you want to use the variable then make the change you show to your config_probe.g file.
Frederick
