I don't know if this is the issue, but this is wrong in your setup.
@Wurstnase See issue #1667
Another item for SanityCheck.h
. — That offset must always be negative.
Please don't do that, for the reasons discussed.
@woodsmoke When would Z_PROBE_OFFSET_FROM_EXTRUDER
be positive? Can it be positive and result in code that makes any sense?
@woodsmoke explained earlier that his probe is higher than his nozzle and diagonally offset from it. His nozzle can move outside of the bed area so he can probe three corners without the nozzle hitting the bed. A neat solution if you have a machine with over travel.
This is it! The bleeding edge of Open Sore Hardware Movement. Personal savings are a prerequisite. When I have personal savings I'm going to take up coding.
Let's steer this back towards the safe homing coordinates issue. Last time this feature failed was because the probe offset caused the safe homing coordinates to fall outside the travel extents. So it just homed at 0. Soft endstops are still present, but some associated code has been removed from config:
Has that got anything to do with it?
you will find this in Conditionals.h. I think this could be go back to config.
You are allowed to have a negative Z_MIN_POS
(and the other min values as well) which should give the right limits and the correct max_length values. With Z_PROBE_OFFSET_FROM_EXTRUDER
set to a positive value and the travel limits set far enough, the firmware should at least attempt do all the right stuff, but it's possible there is some code to prevent Z going below 0. Also I see that the M851
gcode won't allow values outside of -5 to -15, so you can't use that currently.
Just edit this limits. I've done this and it works.
We can re-open this if there's still more to do to get everything working smoothly.
I still can't get a safe home at coordinates to work. I'm not having any luck narrowing it down either.
Some of the homing code has been tweaked, so give the latest a try. Might not fix it, but at least one known homing bug was addressed.
This issue has been automatically locked since there has not been any recent activity after it was closed. Please open a new issue for related bugs.
