Z offset issues

Open rmilyard opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

So I am following your guide on my Trident and not coming out right. The final steps I get offset 0.535 but z_calibration offset is 5.10000

So for this:

Ensure your position_endstop is correct in printer.cfg Set your position_endstop to 0 >>> Save & Restart Home XYZ and then move your nozzle to bed center, and jog until you touch a piece of paper. Take your current Z value and edit position_endstop to match, but invert the value. Eg Z0.34 = position_endstop: -0.34 >>> Save & Restart

I get z-3.100 so would I change position_endstop to 3.100 ??

When I run z_calibration I am getting this: Z-CALIBRATION: ENDSTOP=2.600 NOZZLE=2.569 SWITCH=8.504 PROBE=6.570 --> OFFSET=0.335000

  1. Again, move your nozzle to bed center and jog until you can touch a piece of paper.

  2. Take the current z value and add the inverse to your switch_offset value. Eg Z-0.21 is 0.3+0.21 = switch_offset: 0.51 >>> Save & Restart : I am getting -0.235 so 3+0.235 = 0.535 for new switch offset

  3. run calibrate_z again and your z_offset value should be very close to zero. : I get this

Z-CALIBRATION: ENDSTOP=2.600 NOZZLE=2.567 SWITCH=8.506 PROBE=6.562 --> OFFSET=0.088750
