Cura Gcode for Auto level plunger

[fiegener]

I have a machine that has an auto level plunger that is raised and lowered by the Z platform. After a print the machine will return to this location and lower the plunger for a bed reading on the next print. At the next print it will go out and take a measurement and then return to raise the plunger in storage position. In Cura how do I tell this I have G28 (home) and g29 (level) but I need to add the raise before printing after G29. My auto level sequence in Config H is below Thanks.

Configuration.h

```cpp #define AUTO_BED_LEVELING_BILINEAR /** * Enable detailed logging of G28, G29, M48, etc. * Turn on with the command 'M111 S32'. * NOTE: Requires a lot of PROGMEM! */ //#define DEBUG_LEVELING_FEATURE #if ENABLED(AUTO_BED_LEVELING_LINEAR) || ENABLED(AUTO_BED_LEVELING_BILINEAR) // Set the number of grid points per dimension. #define ABL_GRID_POINTS_X 3 //3 #define ABL_GRID_POINTS_Y ABL_GRID_POINTS_X // Set the boundaries for probing (where the probe can reach). #define LEFT_PROBE_BED_POSITION 20 #define RIGHT_PROBE_BED_POSITION 190 #define FRONT_PROBE_BED_POSITION 20 #define BACK_PROBE_BED_POSITION 200 // The Z probe minimum outer margin (to validate G29 parameters). #define MIN_PROBE_EDGE 10 //10 // Probe along the Y axis, advancing X after each column //#define PROBE_Y_FIRST #if ENABLED(AUTO_BED_LEVELING_BILINEAR) // Gradually reduce leveling correction until a set height is reached, // at which point movement will be level to the machine's XY plane. // The height can be set with M420 Z #define ENABLE_LEVELING_FADE_HEIGHT // // Experimental Subdivision of the grid by Catmull-Rom method. // Synthesizes intermediate points to produce a more detailed mesh. // #define ABL_BILINEAR_SUBDIVISION #if ENABLED(ABL_BILINEAR_SUBDIVISION) // Number of subdivisions between probe points #define BILINEAR_SUBDIVISIONS 3 #endif #endif #elif ENABLED(AUTO_BED_LEVELING_3POINT) // 3 arbitrary points to probe. // A simple cross-product is used to estimate the plane of the bed. #define ABL_PROBE_PT_1_X 29 //-77 #define ABL_PROBE_PT_1_Y 215 #define ABL_PROBE_PT_2_X 210 #define ABL_PROBE_PT_2_Y 4 //-104 #define ABL_PROBE_PT_3_X 208 #define ABL_PROBE_PT_3_Y 215 #endif /** * Commands to execute at the end of G29 probing. * Useful to retract or move the Z probe out of the way. */ //#define Z_PROBE_END_SCRIPT "G1 Z10 F12000\nG1 X15 Y330\nG1 Z0.5\nG1 Z10" // @section homing // The center of the bed is at (X=0, Y=0) //#define BED_CENTER_AT_0_0 // Manually set the home position.

Also anyone with some solid Marlin and Cura experience looking for some side cash to support a project, please let me know.

[AnHardt]

Looks as if

/**
 * Commands to execute at the end of G29 probing.
 * Useful to retract or move the Z probe out of the way.
 */
//#define Z_PROBE_END_SCRIPT "G1 Z10 F12000\nG1 X15 Y330\nG1 Z0.5\nG1 Z10"

could be what you are looking for.

[fiegener]

Thanks AnHardt. I'll take a look at that. I am not a programmer so this is a bit foreign for me. On the Cura Start G code would it look something like this.

G28: Home all
G29: Auto level
G1 Z10 F12000\nG1 X15 Y330\nG1 Z0.5\nG1 Z10
M109 S{print_temperature}    ;set nozzle temperature, and wait for it heat up
G1 X125 Z10 F2400
G92 E0
G1 X125 Z0.5 F400
G1 X100 Z0.5 E20 F360
G92 E0.0

[AnHardt]

Nonsens. Leave the Cura sequence as it is, but fill the needed moves to stow your probe in the Z_PROBE_END_SCRIPT and uncomment it.

[fiegener]

Sorry, I don’t follow. Can you show me what that would look like?

[AnHardt]

Try to stow your printers probe with manual moves. Write down the sequence into the script.
