Auto bed leveling echo endstop hit z
April 17, 2016 09:46PM
Setting up auto bed leveling for the first time..I have an inductive sensor set up properly I believe as it homes with no issue. The problem comes when I send g29 to auto level...it goes through the first 3 corners fine but on the 4th when lowering for the second time I get endstop hit and the printer stops.. I have endstop for homing only defined...I'm using marlin firmware with repetitive host...I don't know what I'm doing wrong but can't seem to get auto leveling to complete and then set g92 for my height adjustment . Any help would be appreciated...

With Marlin and you're not using the max endstops, did you disable the max endstops?

I'm pretty sure they are disabled because they were causing other issues..I don't have it in front of me but will check when I get home tonight

I do in fact have max endstops disabled...I tried changing the points it checks from 4 to 9..and still on the final point I recieve the end stop hit..z 1.0...my lcd reads out as z 0.0..not sure that helps...getting frustrated since it seems to work..just shuts the machine down at the last homing point..

I am using all min endstops

Little update..printer will move after final level point is complete...but once ends top is triggered will not more down..will actually move up instead..no matter how I try to move it down...it will start going down but once triggered will reverse and go up...any ideas on that...I do have it set so if can travel past mins.

Also should end stop hit z 1.0 be displayed after g29 comppetes...abd where is the final stop one complete...mine stops at last point tested

Are you using the current Marlin RC5 at [github.com]?

If you're using pronterface, it should show something like:

Eqn coefficients: a: 0.00112931 b: 0.00197396 d: 1.53946647
planeNormal x: -0.001129 y: -0.001974 z: 1.000000

Bed Level Correction Matrix:
+0.999999 +0.000000 +0.001129
-0.000002 +0.999998 +0.001974
-0.001129 -0.001974 +0.999997

When it's finished running the G29 with 4 points.

At the moment i know it's 1.0.2 from January 2015...I guess I should update?

I'm using repetier...but I figure it should show similar

If you do, the configuration.h file has changed since 1.0.2.

I tried using repetier, but it kept wanting to set Z0 somewhere above the bed after auto-leveling, so I went back to Marlin.

Make sure this line is set to false:

#define min_software_endstops

I'll have to check on that one...I'm using the preconfigured firmware [github.com] it possible I have an old version that's giving me these issues
