The nozzle hits the bed when printing. #1571

Hey, I've got an ADIMLab Gantry Pro I've upgraded to have a BL Touch, as well as a SKR Mini E3 V3.0, and I've made my own custom firmware 2.0.9.3.

I've made firmware before without issues and the bl touch (bilinear-leveling) worked fine before the motherboard upgrade and the bl touch seems to be working fine on the new board.

So I've calibrated my X and Y offsets with digital calipers and my Z offset with the offset calibration wizard in Marlin. I used the steps per mm from my old firmware that I had calibrated. Everything was well until I tried to print, now the nozzle digs into my print bed hard whenever I try to print.

After I run the wizard, If I send a G code to set my Z position to zero, the nozzle is perfectly hovering a paper's thickness above the print bed. But when I go to print, it just wants to push the nozzle through the print bed.

I have tried to follow this tutorial ("https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y_1Kg45APko") I set my z to zero like in the video, but as soon I get to the part where I run a G1 F60 Z0 g code The nozzle just digs into the bed and I have to do an emergency shutdown before I bend my gantry.

If I set my z probe offset to like 20 mm, I can step down the z probe offset manually to get it to a sufficient printing level. That z probe offset number is always a positive number, around positive 11.8 or 18.whatever.

Anybody got any ideas about what could correct this headache?

I fixed this issue by enabling

define MIN_SOFTWARE_ENDSTOP__Z

This Marlin setup guide for the SKR mini e3 v3 led me astray. Figured I'd share if anybody else has this issue. https://www.makenprint.uk/3d-printing/3d-firmware-guides/marlin/consolidated-marlin-guide/
