Auto leveling isn't perfect.
Sometimes increasing the grid size (number of sample points) is all that is needed.
I like to use the G26 mesh validation pattern to see where the problems are. I'm using the UBL leveling system because it has the G29 P2 phase where I can adjust individual mesh points as needed based on the G26 pattern.
Whenever there are homing or leveling issues, we now ask everyone to follow a standard procedure to gather more information:
bugfix-2.1.x
to test with the latest code.DEBUG_LEVELING_FEATURE
and M114_DETAIL
and re-flash the firmware.M502
and M500
to ensure your Configurations are applied.M111 S247
to enable maximum logging.G28
to do your standard homing procedure.G29
to probe the bed. This will also enable bed leveling.Repeat this procedure, if needed, to demonstrate inconsistencies. From these logs we should hopefully get a better idea of what's going on with your machine.
I’ll do the test tomorrow, but the the thing is I can’t use the 2.1 firmware because the provided config for 2.1 firmware is “for an old version of marlin” according to vscode
I just downloaded the bugfix-2.1.x examples from here. It compiled with no issues.
I’ll do the test tomorrow, but the the thing is I can’t use the 2.1 firmware because the provided config for 2.1 firmware is “for an old version of marlin” according to vscode
That's because you're not using the 2.1.1 release configs with the 2.1.1 release of Marlin.
To test, you'll need to download bugfix-2.1.x configs with the Marlin bugfix-2.1.x.
Pain… I tried using Google gcode sender, which worked but didn’t save the whole log. Tried cura, but it doesn’t even have an output log. Tried pronterface but upon enter M111 S247 if just echos m105 constantly.
Yeah ok this “might” be my problem Oop pic file was too big but basically my bed was like .4mm off
It's strange, but I've noticed this too - however I've been trying to rule out a hardware problem first... My bed probes as:
Send: M420 V
Recv: Bilinear Leveling Grid:
Recv: 0 1 2 3 4
Recv: 0 -0.120 -0.061 +0.009 +0.051 +0.109
Recv: 1 -0.136 -0.077 -0.005 +0.053 +0.074
Recv: 2 -0.110 -0.065 +0.001 +0.054 +0.091
Recv: 3 -0.159 -0.087 -0.005 +0.062 +0.114
Recv: 4 -0.100 -0.062 +0.009 +0.064 +0.111
Recv:
Recv: echo:Bed Leveling ON
Recv: echo:Fade Height OFF
Levelling should be able to handle those levels of difference.
I have updated to todays bugfix-2.1.x - and when I get some time, I'll try and do some more testing - however last time I did a print, I wasn't sure what was going on and why I had one side perfect, the other side looked like it wasn't even touching the bed.
I'm not convinced its a bug yet - but that seemed to be new behaviour...
So after a re-level, checking the X gantry, resetting the Z offset for the probe etc. This is the first part of a print.
Note that the outer circle is 1 line width - and is much more compressed on the left side of the print.
The inner circles are similar - much multiple line widths.
The grid used on this print:
Send: M420 V
Recv: Bilinear Leveling Grid:
Recv: 0 1 2 3 4
Recv: 0 -0.101 -0.041 +0.006 +0.062 +0.101
Recv: 1 -0.106 -0.079 -0.001 +0.048 +0.077
Recv: 2 -0.106 -0.056 +0.006 +0.066 +0.080
Recv: 3 -0.125 -0.086 -0.010 +0.061 +0.111
Recv: 4 -0.104 -0.059 +0.015 +0.071 +0.101
Recv:
Recv: echo:Bed Leveling ON
Recv: echo:Fade Height OFF
Recv: ok P15 B3
One interesting point to note - these are done with ARC commands. the g-code for the inner arcs (which is a brim) is:
;TYPE:Skirt/Brim

That makes me wonder - is it possible that the mesh isn't applied correctly to ARC print commands?
However I don't believe the original poster for this issue would have ARCs in his G-Code unless it was put through ARC-Welder too...

Bug Description
Hey, so I'm trying to get my cr touch to work with my ender 3 with a skr mini v3 board. The config that they supplied for auto leveling didn't work, so I compiled my own using teaching techs tutorial. It probes fine but when I try to print a larger object is doesn't compensate enough, so usually the left side is too high, mid is perfect, right is too low. I had the same problem with my 4.2.2 board. My start gcode: ; Ender 3 Custom Start G-code
M190 S{material_bed_temperature} ;Heat bed to Cura and wait
M104 S150 ;Heat hotend, no wait
