Y Axis doing strange things while homing
-
Adding G91 at the end of homeall.g won't help, because the original relative/absolute behaviour will be restored when the macro file terminates.
I suspect a problem with your M92 and/or M350 commands in config.g. So please post your config.g file, and tell us what sort of motion system you are using.

When you say it goes the full length of the bed when you ask for 0.1mm movement, is that in the X or the Y direction?
Your X steps/mm in the M92 command is very high (1600). Are you sure it is correct? 80 or 160 would be more usual.
Are you using the web interface to command movement, or a USB host program, if so which program?

Y Moves all the way from the endstop
im using the web interface yes.
and i have leadscrews with a 2mm pitch i have tested the mm settings and yes 10mm moved 10mm on all axis when i first was setting it up that was the first thing i did -
its an old 200X275 printer i used to have repiter and a generic controller on it .
but i upgraded with a duet ethernet and i already have a 400X400 working fine but as i learnt i have put the new firmware on this and it seems a lot harder to config as the old firmwarethe 200X275 is
Firmware Name: RepRapFirmware for Duet 2 WiFi/Ethernet
Firmware Electronics: Duet Ethernet 1.02 or later
Firmware Version: 1.21 (2018-03-21)
Web Interface Version: 1.21The Endstop on the X-axis in on the left
The End Stop on the Y axis in at the rear
as you look at the front of the machinei am using an inferred Z Probe the seems to work fine
but the big 400X400 that works fine
Firmware Name: RepRapFirmware for Duet WiFi

This is what's wrong:
M208 X-5 Y275 Z-3 S1 ; Set axis minima
M208 X200 Y-200 Z200 S0 ; Set axis maximaYou have the Y275 and Y-200 the wrong way round.

well it didn't help, in fact, made things worse.
now it goes over to the end stop on the y Axis even when clicking + or - 1mm on any axis then stops then once it reaches the end stop I can move the X but not the Y -
In that case you either have your M574 commands set up incorrectly, or your homing files set up incorrectly. Please specify the following locations, looking at the front of the machine:
1. Where you expect X=0 Y=0 to be;
2. Where your X endstop switch is;
3. Where your Y endstop switch is. -
got it

G1 X-270 Y-270 F3000 S1 ; move up to 240mm in the -X and -Y directions until the homing switches are triggered

G1 Y-45 X-45 F600 S2
G92 X0 Y0 E4added this bottom line and bingo all works
-
so im moving manual with code to X0 Y0 And then setting the position manually
not sure if i need
G90 ; back to absolute modeat the bottom
