Reprap / Marlin Commands for slicer start script.
Hello, I'm trying to implement the following script from TH3D for the EZ ABL pro. Will I need to adjust the G-code as I assume some of the commands are different between marlin and reprap?
Also what "flavor" do I tell my slicer in the machine settings?
Here is the link to the TH3D start G-Code page:
EZ ABL Start G-CodeM117 Print Starting... M75 ; Start Print Timer and Engage Fil Sensor if USB Printing M84 E ; Disable E Motor for probe accuracy on direct drive systems M117 Antiblob retract... G92 E0 ; Reset Extruder distance to 0 G1 E-2 ; Retracts filament to prevent blobs during probing G92 E0 ; Reset Extruder distance to 0 M117 Homing All... G28 ; home all axes M117 Homing Z Probe... G28 Z ; home z again M117 Generating mesh... G29; auto bed leveling M117 Heaters Recovering... G4 S10; wait for heaters to recover M420 Z0; Z fade M900 K0; LA M117 Purging extruder... G92 E0 ; reset extruder G1 Z1.0 F3000 ; move z up little to prevent scratching of surface G1 X0.1 Y20 Z0.3 F5000.0 ; move to start-line position G1 X0.1 Y100.0 Z0.3 F500.0 E15 ; draw 1st line G1 X0.4 Y100.0 Z0.3 F5000.0 ; move to side a little G1 X0.4 Y20 Z0.3 F500.0 E30 ; draw 2nd line G92 E0 ; reset extruder G1 Z1.0 F3000 ; move z up little to prevent scratching of surface M117 Printing.....

RE: Do I complete the bed mesh before/after M671in the "bed" file?
@fcwilt I understand, I'll order some endstops for the top of the z axis. What would be the Gcode commands for this?

RE: Do I complete the bed mesh before/after M671in the "bed" file?
@fcwilt this isn't my printer but it is how my z steppers are setup. Perhaps it would be better to run these motors in series? My goal was to make sure my x gantry was square with the frame. Or if possible, is there a stall detection option similar to the prusa at the top of the z axis?

RE: Do I complete the bed mesh before/after M671in the "bed" file?
@fcwilt I have modified my printer with an EZ ABL Pro and dual Z axis steppers in addition to linear rails, mosquito hotend, bmg extruder, and a silicone heatbed.

RE: Do I complete the bed mesh before/after M671in the "bed" file?
@fcwilt ah ok. I'll make sure its added to my bed.g file.

RE: Do I complete the bed mesh before/after M671in the "bed" file?
@Phaedrux when you say "level out the bed" i believe you are referring to a corexy type of printer in which the z axis motors are moving the print bed itself. Does it make any difference that my motors are attached to the x Gantry (ender 3 setup)?

RE: Do I complete the bed mesh before/after M671in the "bed" file?
@fcwilt are you referring to the z probe trigger height that is saved in the config.g file?

RE: Do I complete the bed mesh before/after M671in the "bed" file?
Do the G30 probing commands for the lead screw calibration go before or after the bed mesh compensation commands?
From the wiki example:
G28 ; home
M401 ; deploy Z probe (omit if using bltouch)
G30 P0 X20 Y190 Z-99999 ; probe near a leadscrew
G30 P1 X180 Y190 Z-99999 ; probe near a leadscrew
G30 P2 X100 Y10 Z-99999 S3 ; probe near a leadscrew and calibrate 3 motors
M402 ; retract probe (omit if using bltouch)Would i do this before the bed meshing?

Hello,
I'm trying to calibrate my independent z motors as well as creating the bed mesh. In what order should these commands be completed in the bed file?

RE: Bed origin settings vs firmware settings.
@Phaedrux This is very helpful! Thanks, this type of thing should be pinned to the tuning and tweaking forum.
-
RE: Bed origin settings vs firmware settings.
@Phaedrux yes thats the one. This is where I get confused as some things I need to run in the start Gcode and others work directly from the firmware.
-
RE: Bed origin settings vs firmware settings.
@Phaedrux what about settings such as linear progression?
-
RE: Bed origin settings vs firmware settings.
@Phaedrux Very Helpful. Thanks!

RE: Problem setting up core XY
@Veti said in Problem setting up core XY:
My original reply was within context of his post about the bed origins. Regardless have a good one!

RE: Problem setting up core XY
@Phaedrux is there a way to add bed heat before the homing and also bed probing? My sensor needs the bed to be heated to produce accurate results. I've been doing it manually but it would be nice to automate this process as well.

RE: Bed origin settings vs firmware settings.
@Phaedrux If i were set the offsets in both the firmware and the slicer would it be doubling the offsets? This feature is available in Simplify3d as well.

RE: Bed origin settings vs firmware settings.
@Veti ok this answers my question. Thanks!
