7 years ago I had the same problem and the issue seems to be that the G33 probe area uses a constant called DELTA_PROBEABLE_RADIUS which is set lower down in configuration.h and by default is DELTA_PRINTABLE_RADIUS - 10.
This may work for the standard Allen Key probe but not if your probe is slightly farther out like my serve driven one which has a Y offset of 19mm
I fixed the problem by changing the DELTA_PROBEABLE_RADIUS to DELTA_PRINTABLE_RADIUS - 20 to suit my probe. Though with hindsight I suppose setting it to DELTA_CALIBRATION_RADIUS might be a more sensible solution.
There is also another issue in that DELTA_PROBABLE_RADIUS is only defined if MESH_BED_LEVELING, AUTO_BED_LEVELING_BILINEAR or AUTO_BED_LEVELING_UBL are defined but it is actually referenced for all levelling types:
From Configuration.h
#if ENABLED(MESH_BED_LEVELING) || ENABLED(AUTO_BED_LEVELING_BILINEAR) || ENABLED(AUTO_BED_LEVELING_UBL)
// 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<height>
//#define ENABLE_LEVELING_FADE_HEIGHT
// Set the boundaries for probing (where the probe can reach).
#define DELTA_PROBEABLE_RADIUS (DELTA_PRINTABLE_RADIUS - 10)
#endif
#if ENABLED(AUTO_BED_LEVELING_LINEAR) || ENABLED(AUTO_BED_LEVELING_BILINEAR)
// Set the number of grid points per dimension.
// Works best with 5 or more points in each dimension.
#define GRID_MAX_POINTS_X 9
#define GRID_MAX_POINTS_Y GRID_MAX_POINTS_X
#define LEFT_PROBE_BED_POSITION -(DELTA_PROBEABLE_RADIUS)
#define RIGHT_PROBE_BED_POSITION DELTA_PROBEABLE_RADIUS
#define FRONT_PROBE_BED_POSITION -(DELTA_PROBEABLE_RADIUS)
#define BACK_PROBE_BED_POSITION DELTA_PROBEABLE_RADIUS
...etc.Moving the definition for DELTA_PROBEABLE_RADIUS out of the IF block and up next to the definition for DELTA_CALIBRATION_RADIUS would solve this latter issue as well as making the parameter easier to spot.

Hello everyone,
I am having an issue on my Kossel Mini delta printer right now. When I do the G33 delta auto level command, the inductive sensor probes a point that is off the bed, forcing me to turn off the printer.
I am using Marlin 1.1.4 and I tried adjusting the DELTA_CALIBRATION_RADIUS, however that does not affect where the sensor probes. I have attached my config.h file.
I do have another question, I was wondering if I need to call the g33 command in the beginning of the every print? Is it necessary to call G29 for the bed mapping at all for the delta printer?
Best, Noah
