[BUG] M117 doesn't work with Stowable Z-PROBE #27232

Open jgilmore opened 4 weeks ago

jgilmore commented 4 weeks ago

Did you test the latest bugfix-2.1.x code?

Yes, and the problem still exists.

Bug Description

With the following settings:

define FIX_MOUNTED_PROBE

define PAUSE_BEFORE_DEPLOY_STOW

When told to home, (Marlin will pause and display a "Deploy Z-Probe" message, and a "Stow Z-Probe" message afterward. This is correct behavior.

What is NOT correct, is that the "Stow Z-Probe" message is then permanently displayed. All sorts of errors that REALLY REALLY SHOULD display a message (like wait-for-temperature timeout, temperature out of range, etc.) don't, and instead display the "Stow Z-Probe" message.

This makes it rather difficult to determine why the print stopped and the printer is now beeping for all it's worth! Hiding error messages is a big deal.

The M117 messages also don't display. (I have one before each layer in the G-code, so I can tell how far along it is.) configBugM117.zip

Please note that while this is an older firmware version, this bug is kinda corner case (only affecting manually stowable Z-probe printers) and I would be surprised if it doesn't still exist in latest. I would test this, but I'm in the middle of a 21-hour (predicted) print. (Thus having time to type this up.)

Expected behavior

I expect the printer to stop displaying the Z-Probe message, and subsequently display error and informational (M117) messages as needed.

Your provided configs shows CONFIGURATION_H_VERSION 02000902 This is positively ancient code

Please test the bugfix-2.1.x branch to see where it stands. If the problem has been resolved then we can close this issue. If the issue isn't resolved yet, then we should investigate further.
