G32
Can you post bed.g as well?
Your slicer start gcode doesn't include a G90 command to ensure you're in absolute positioning mode.
Is this a new problem? Or is this a new printer and it's always happened?
Can you also send M122 and M98 P"config.g" in the DWC gcode console and copy and paste the results?
-
@phaedrux Hi, Sorry for the late responce. Its a new problem since adding the mini IR probe and going to a biggger nozzle.(Need to print faster because we get power cuts 3 times a day)
Does the G90 have to be before or after something in my start gcode?

@pitsweer said in Z hight Issue:
Its a new problem since adding the mini IR probe and going to a biggger nozzle.
After this change did you re-measure the z probe trigger height?
https://docs.duet3d.com/en/User_manual/Connecting_hardware/Z_probe_testing
-
@phaedrux Yes I did...but I see now I never used M561 before I did...trying that now to see what happenes
-
@phaedrux nope...problem is still there
-
Can you measure that when you ask for 50mm of Z movement you actually get 50mm of z movement?
Are the steps per mm on Z set correctly?
If that checks out ok, can you test the Z probe trigger height at different spots on the bed to see if there is any variation?
@pitsweer said in Z hight Issue:
however when I start a print it starts probably 2 -3 mm too high even though first layer is set to 0.2 in the slicer.
What position is reported in DWC for Z height at that point?
-
@phaedrux Ok...So the esteps are good...ask for 50mm and get 50mm.
but...checking the Z probe trigger height revealed a problem( I think)
Each corner gives a different value. It varies from 1.71mm to 2.05mm.
that is with the bed at room temp. -
@pitsweer
Hello
After a nozzle change, the Z offset must be determined again and this value must be entered manually in config.g.This is how I do it...
I drive the nozzle tip exactly over an adjustment screw / leveling screw of the print bed with a distance of 0.05mm.
(See Macro #1)There I put a 0.05mm steel sheet (feeler gauge) between the nozzle and the print bed and adjust the level screw until the nozzle starts to clamp the steel sheet.
CAUTION... the nozzle should be hot and above all CLEAN!Then I move the IR height sensor over the spot where the nozzle tip was before and measure the height.
(See Macro #2)
To get a more accurate reading, I measure that point 10x and then go into the console and add those 10 readings together and then divide by 10.This calculated value is the Z offset that I enter in config.g.
In this Thread there is a script with which you can later add the and divide to get the checksum can save.
I have created two macros that I use to determine a new Z offset after a nozzle change, for example.
Macro #1 to drive the nozzle tip over the adjustment screw.
G28 G1 Z10 G1 x310 y20 z10 f10000 M291 P"Nozzle tip MUST be clean!" R"Measure 0.05mm sheet metal" T10 ; Display message G1 x310 y20 z0.05
Macro #2 measures the spot above the adjustment screw 10x.
M291 P"10x IR height measurement" R"Z offset is determined..." T30 ; Display message G1 Z10 G1 x310 y-2 F10000 G30 S-1 G1 Z10 G30 S-1 G1 Z10 G30 S-1 G1 Z10 G30 S-1 G1 Z10 G30 S-1 G1 Z10 G30 S-1 G1 Z10 G30 S-1 G1 Z10 G30 S-1 G1 Z10 G30 S-1 G1 Z10 G30 S-1 G1 Z10
Now I look at the console in the DWC and add the ten readings and then divide by 10 and then enter the value (Z3.370) in the config.g.
----> Extract from config.g <---- ; Z sample M558 C"zprobe.in" P5 H1.5 F50 T18000 A20 S0.007 R0 ; disable Z probe but set dive height, probe speed and travel speed G31 P500 X0 Y22 Z3.370 ; set Z probe trigger value, offset and trigger height M557 X30:300 Y30:300 S54 ; define mesh grid
Now I heat up the bed to the temperature I want to print at and then measure the height just above each bed adjustment screw and adjust the height to get as close to zero as possible.
After each measurement, the measured value is shown on the display / monitor.
I repeat this until I am satisfied with all the settings.I also wrote a macro for each adjustment screw (I have three level screws on the print bed) that takes five measurements per adjustment screw.
With the five measurements, I always have some time to adjust the adjustment screw in between.Here a fivefold measurement on the same adjustment screw where the Z offset was determined.

! The previously determined Z offset value must be entered here (H3.370) !
Now an MBL (Mesh Bed Levelling) can be performed and then the printer is ready to print.
My first layer is always 0.1mm firstly to see if everything has been measured and adjusted well, secondly I get better adhesion to the print bed (as I noticed) and there is no big or no elephant foot.I hope I could help if necessary!?

Nach einem Düsenwechsel muss das Z-Offset neu ermittelt werden und dieser Wert muss manuell in die config.g eingetragen werden.So mache ich es...
Ich fahre mit der Düsenspitze genau über eine Einstellschraube / Levellschraube des Druckbett mit einem Abstand von 0,05mm.
(Siehe Macro #1)Dort lege ich ein 0,05mm Stahlblech (Fühlerlehre) zwischen Düse und Druckbett und verstelle die Levellschraube bis die Düse anfängt das Stahlblech einzuklemmen.
VORSICHT... die Düse sollte heiß sein und vor allen Dingen SAUBER !Dann fahre ich mit dem IR Höhensensor über die Stelle wo vorher die Düsenspitze war und messe die Höhe.
(Siehe Macro #2)
Um eine genauere Messung zu erhalten messe ich diesen Punkt 10x und gehe dann in die Konsole und addiere diese 10 Messwerte und teile sie anschließend durch 10.Dieser errechnete Wert ist der Z-Offset den ich in der config.g eintrage.
In diesem Thread gibt es ein Script mit dem man sich später das addieren und teilen um die Quersumme zu erhalten, sparen kann.
Ich habe für das ermitteln eines neuen Z-Offset nach zB einem Düsenwechsel, zwei Macros erstellt die ich dazu nutze.
Macro #1 um die Düsenspitze über die Einstellschraube zu fahren.
G28 G1 Z10 G1 x310 y20 z10 f10000 M291 P"Düsenspitze MUSS sauber sein !" R"0.05mm Blech messen" T10 ; Display message G1 x310 y20 z0.05
Macro #2 misst die Stelle über der Einstellschraube 10x.
M291 P"10-fache IR-Höhenmessung" R"Z-Offset wird ermittelt..." T30 ; Display message G1 Z10 G1 x310 y-2 F10000 G30 S-1 G1 Z10 G30 S-1 G1 Z10 G30 S-1 G1 Z10 G30 S-1 G1 Z10 G30 S-1 G1 Z10 G30 S-1 G1 Z10 G30 S-1 G1 Z10 G30 S-1 G1 Z10 G30 S-1 G1 Z10 G30 S-1 G1 Z10
Jetzt sehe ich mir die Konsole im DWC an und addiere die zehn Messwerte und teile sie dann durch 10 und trage dann den Wert (Z3.370) in der config.g ein.
----> Auszug aus config.g <---- ; Z-Probe M558 C"zprobe.in" P5 H1.5 F50 T18000 A20 S0.007 R0 ; disable Z probe but set dive height, probe speed and travel speed G31 P500 X0 Y22 Z3.370 ; set Z probe trigger value, offset and trigger height M557 X30:300 Y30:300 S54 ; define mesh grid
Jetzt heize ich das Druckbett auf mit der Temperatur mit der ich drucken möchte und messe dann direkt über jeder Einstellschraube des Druckbettes die Höhe und stelle so die Höhe ein um so nah wie möglich an Null heran zu kommen.
Nach jedem Messen wird der gemessene Wert auf dem Display / Monitor angezeigt.
Dieses wiederhole ich so lange bis ich mit allen Einstellungen zufrieden bin.Dazu habe ich mir auch für jede Einstellschraube (bei mir sind es drei Levellschrauben am Druckbett) ein Macro geschrieben die fünf Messungen pro Einstellschraube vornimmt.
Bei den fünf Messungen bleibt mir immer etwas Zeit um zwischendurch die Einstellschraube zu justieren.Hier eine fünffache Messung an der gleichen Einstellschraube wo auch das Z-Offset ermittelt wurde.

! Hier muss der vorher ermittelte Z-Offset Wert eingetragen werden (H3.370) !
Jetzt kann ein MBL (Mesh Bed Levelling) durchgeführt werden und danach ist der Drucker fertig zum drucken.
Mein erster Layer ist immer 0,1mm um erstens zu sehen ob alles gut vermessen und eingestellt wurde, zweitens erhalte ich so eine bessere Haftung auf dem Druckbett (wie mir aufgefallen ist) und es kommt nicht zu einem großen bis gar keinen Elefantenfuß.Ich hoffe ich konnte gegebenenfalls helfen !?

You cannot adopt all these macros 1:1.
You have to adjust the X Y Z coordinates of your printer or your adjustment screws.
I forgot to mention that.
One of my three adjustment screws is at X310 Y20 for example... Yours is most likely at a different point.Of course you can use any feeler gauge (0.1mm, 0.2mm ... etc pp) for the measurement, only then you have to adjust the value in Macro #1.
So it doesn't have to be 0.05mm spring steel like in my case.And the fact that I always use a first 0.1mm layer height is of course also due to my type of printing plate.
0.1mm on rough surfaces would not make sense.
I use a smooth black flexible FR4 magnetic printing plate from Printbay (it's a 1 man company), the plate is called Blackprint.
It's the best pressure plate I've ever had and it lasts and lasts and...
By the way, she is from GermanyThe nice thing about the record is... it doesn't have any logos or writing printed on it.
It is matte black throughout, which is ideal for the Duet3D IR Probe.PS:
By the way... with the 5-fold height measurement you can always adjust your pressure bed level wheels without having to put anything under the nozzle.
It is taken for the manual leveling of the print bed of the Duet3D IR Sample.As soon as you change the nozzle and a new Z offset has been determined, you must don't forget to enter this new value in the macros as well.
First of course in the config.g, but that should be obvious.
For each adjustment screw you have to create a macro which then measures the value once, twice, three times or even five times.Manual leveling couldn't be more convenient or precise.
Edited for correction !

Ihr könnt diese ganzen Macros nicht 1:1 übernehmen.
Ihr müsst die X Y Z Koordinaten von Eurem Drucker bzw Eurer Einstellschrauben anpassen.
Das hatte ich vergessen zu erwähnen.
Eine meiner drei Einstellschrauben ist zB bei X310 Y20 ... Deine liegt höchstwahrscheinlich an einem anderen Punkt.Ihr könnt natürlich eine beliebige Fühllehre (0,1mm, 0,2mm ... etc pp) für die Messung nehmen, nur dann müsst ihr auch den Wert in Macro #1 anpassen.
Es muss also kein 0,05mm Federstahl sein wie in meinem Fall.Und dass ich immer eine erste 0,1mm Layerhöhe nehme, liegt natürlich auch an meiner Art der Druckplatte.
0,1mm bei rauen Oberflächen wäre nicht Sinnvoll.
Ich nutze eine glatte schwarze flexible FR4 Magnet-Druckplatte von der Firma Printbay (es ist eine 1 Mann Firma), die Platte nennt sich Blackprint.
Es ist die beste Druckplatte die ich bis jetzt hatte und sie hält und hält und...
Sie kommt übrigens aus DeutschlandDas schöne an der Platte ist... sie ist nicht mit irgendwelchen Logos oder Schriften bedruckt.
Sie ist durchgehend Mattschwarz, was für den Duet3D IR Probe ideal ist.P.S.:
Übrigens... mit der 5-fach Höhenmessung könnt ihr immer Eure Druckbett Levelräder einstellen ohne etwas unter die Düse legen zu müssen.
Es wird für das manuelle leveln des Druckbettes der Duet3D IR Probe genommen.Sobald ihr die Düse wechselt und ein neuer Z-Offset wurde ermittelt, dürft ihr nicht vergessen diesen neuen Wert auch in die Macros einzutragen.
Zuerst natürlich in die config.g, aber das sollte eigentlich klar sein.
Für jede Einstellschraube müsst ihr ein Macro erstellen welches dann einmal, zweimal, dreimal oder eben fünfmal den Wert misst.Komfortabler und genauer geht das manuelle Leveln nicht.
Wegen Korrektur editiert !

Printbay
Yes I adjusted all those according to my setup. But the way you level each leadscrew works perfect.
-
@pitsweer
Thanks.
Yes it works perfectly with the IR probe as a setting aid.
This makes manual leveling a little bit more fun, doesn't it ?You just have to remember in which direction I have to turn the adjusting screw if there is a - in front of the measured value.
And with this type of measurement, the nozzle does not have to be preheated in order to get the correct result, and dirty nozzle tips can no longer falsify the result, which happens very often.
Some people level their print bed with a cold nozzle where some filament still sticks to the tip and later wonder why the first layer does not hold.Happy Printing !

Danke.
Ja es funktioniert mit dem IR-Probe als Einstellhilfe perfekt.
So macht das manuelle Leveln auch ein wenig mehr Spaß, oder ?Man muss sich nur merken in welche Richtung ich die Einstellschraube drehen muss, wenn ein- vor dem gemessenen Wert steht.
Und die Düse muss bei dieser Art Messung nicht vorgeheizt werden um das richtige Ergebniss zu erhalten und verschmutze Düsenspitzen können das Ergebniss auch nicht mehr verfälschen, was sehr oft passiert.
Einige Leute leveln ihr Druckbett mit kalter Düse wo an der Spitze noch etwas Filament haftet und wundern sich später warum der erste Layer nicht hält. -

Yes... Printbay
A little advertising if it's allowed !?
I get no money for it !This is my matte black printing plate with no logo or other imprints.
Link to Blackprint - magnet system... Click me.
Anyone who owns a "Duet3D IR Probe" should check it out... I think.I print 90% ABS filament and without housing.
I don't print benchys and vases, the parts have to fulfill a function for me. Sorry, but I think benchys and vases are pollution... nobody "needs" them.
I can also recognize printing errors on a printed part which I can use, I don't need a benchy for that.
I think now I suddenly have a lot of enemies !?My favorite filaments are...
-
ABS-X from Minadax (You can hardly see the layers, especially with the orange)
-
TitanX from FormFutura (also available recycled... costs less, but is great. It is then called rTitan).
-
Copa by Polymaker (expensive NYLON, but unbreakable, easily withstands 180 °C without deforming)
According to Polymaker, this nylon can be printed with a bed temperature of 25 °C... well, I use 60 °C and it holds up great.
All of these filaments know almost no warping, do not smell and can be printed without a housing.
I love the matte black finish on the TitanX / rTitan and Copa. -
