i have the wires plunged in for a micro switch on the board side ill unplug them but i have no micro switch plugged into the wires

but i did originally have a micro switch on my machine on the z axies and would this be the problem

M574 X1 Y1 Z1 S0 ; Define active high microswitches

do i need to change m574 g code to this
M574 X1 Y1 Z0 S0 ; Define active high microswitches

thanks

what about the hole bed looking high in calibration result

hi i got my ir prob working but i have a wonky bed looks flat but its not how do i in-cress the bed mesh probing points
here's my macro for bed mesh

M557 X20:250 Y20:250 S40 ; Define a 6x4 point grid for measuring the bed
G28 Y ; Always home Y
G28 X ; Always home X
G28 Z ; Always home Z
G29 S0 ; Run probing sequence defined by M557 above S0 parameter saves the height map in a file on the SD card,
M374 ; Save calibration data. Default is sys/heightmap.csv
G1 X0 Y0 F3000 ; move to position to home

also my hole bed seems to be high i am sure i have missed are misunderstood some thing how do i get most of it back into the green

yes i find the documentation is not well written are organized i.e start reading this page go to that page come back to this page before you know it you have 20 tabs open and you lost some bit that you need …..... if your doing bed mesh next i found a great right up here

https://forum.e3d-online.com/index.php?threads/my-guide-to-duet-mesh-auto-leveling.2456/

please do if your taking requests id also like to see a video on ir probe install and set up as your right ups are very technical and a show and tell would help us mortals keep up with you are have a better understanding of it

M558 P0 X1 Y0 Z0 H5 F120 T6000 ; Set Z probe type to switch, the axes for which it is used and the probe + travel speeds
you have a 1 on the x meaning you have a z probe on x

G31 P600 X0 Y0 Z2.5 is that not meant to be
G31 P500 X0 Y0 Z2.5

please double check i amstill getting my head around this

Nice work big thumds up
Wish i had one of the new boards and not the early on as i have blown my vssa fuse and am running a glass fuse mine happenex when installing a volcano heater wiretouching hot end and a thirmister with very thin ptf tube that i over tighten and must of shredden the tube

P.s love the video i personal would like to see some more videos cover setup of the more common questions you see

yes i see now it stops at my set high 1.50 on home but gose to 0 when printing and i can still lower 0 with move keys my bad i see how it works now

is it possible to set up a 9 point bed meshing ?

ok how do i adjust the probe high from bed with out manly moving it i.e i want to make it closer

Me ? Cardboard

No im configured as a coerxy
And yes its on the pannel due. On the line where home all hone x ..home y..home..z and far left of screen is the auto cail botton

Yes hitting that botton dose the four piont test ive set up in bed.g
So is that it done hit home.all ..then auto cal then print
Are have i missed a step

Ok now i have this set up all i do now is. Home all hit the funny key (wavey line with arrow pionting up the anther one pionting down) let do its
Thing then print ??

ok i found out that since i have my ir sencor 30mm in fount of my nozzel and the nozel is set at x0 and y0 with no roo m to move anywhere i have to reset bed.g looking like this
M561

; Probe the bed at 4 points
G30 P0 X35 Y15 H0 Z-99999
G30 P1 X35 Y235 H0 Z-99999
G30 P2 X235 Y235 H0 Z-99999
G30 P3 X235 Y15 H0 Z-99999 S

hi new bed.g file does thi look correct

M561

; Probe the bed at 4 points
G30 P0 X15 Y15 H0 Z-99999
G30 P1 X15 Y235 H0 Z-99999
G30 P2 X235 Y235 H0 Z-99999
G30 P3 X235 Y15 H0 Z-99999 S

hi and thanks for the help so far
ok ive got all of the above done and
my code now look like this
M558 P1 X0 Y0 Z1 H5 F120 T6000 ;
G31 P500 X30 Y0 Z1.50 ;

im using a e3d v6 with ir senor sat right in front 30mm on the x axes

home z looks like this
G91 ; relative mode
G1 Z6 F200 ; raise head 6mm to ensure it is above the Z probe trigger height
G90 ; back to absolute mode
G1 X0 Y0 F1000 ; put head over the centre of the bed, or wherever you want to probe
G30 ; lower head, stop when probe triggered and set Z to trigger height

which all works good im having problems setting up auto bed meshing ive read the right up and its ive not sinking in are not making much scenes for me
is there any other setup / tutorial out there you would recommend
