@terbospaghetti, I understand that Klicky may not be a good choice for your use case but the 'Doesn't pass the smell test' sounds as a very board statement.

As for BlTouch, it doesn't do well in heated chambers.

As for the magnets loosing their power, first there are magnets that stand 100C+ (e.g. https://mandalaroseworks.com/products/voron0-magbed) and second, the Klicky's measurement doesn't not depend on the strength of the magnetic field as is. the with BlTouch.

I'm thinking my IR probe might just never play nice with the coating on my glass bed. No matter what I do, it throws wacky numbers at me like full 1+mm differences that I can tell are just not there.

The IR sensor doesn't work well with glass beds having any sort of transparent coating. The problem is that the coating is never uniform, so the proportion of light reflected from the surface vs. light reflected from whatever is below the glass varies. Using matt black paint on the surface below the glass (or matt black paper under the glass) helps, but is not a complete solution.

@cr3d I am closing this issue due to lack of response. Feel free to open it again if you can reproduce it using RRF 3.4.0 stable.

In all of those commands remove the second Z value. You only need one value per axis even when there are multiple drivers for that axis. Extruders are different because each driver is a separate extruder axis, so they still need to be defined for each.

Ex: Z3200.00:3200.00 Delete the :3200.00

Also, update your firmware to 3.3

@terbospaghetti said in Z probe woes:

Hm. I don't see why not, but what's the reasoning to add this?

Sometimes the expansion can bus boards take a little longer to startup, and so any commands in config.g that get executed before they start can lead to errors or unexpected behaviour. The delay gives them time to finish starting up.

@terbospaghetti said in Z probe woes:

I moved the probe to io7 on the mainboard and that seems to have solved the problem there.

This is why I asked about the firmware versions. There are some limitations on where probes can be used in earlier firmware. Some limits have been removed in 3.3.

Post your full config.g so we can see what is happening please.
