Communication timeout during homing probe

Did you find a solution in the meantime? I ran into ai similar timeout but with x homing.

Looking at when your issue was opened i don't believe BTT is very active here. sigh

I had the same issue and ended up increasing my CAN baud rate to 500000. I still have the error once in a while but it is far more stable. I was also not able to run an resonance test successfully before increasing the rate.

Hi, I have the same issue but it’s happening quite frequently! I’m at 500,000 baud right now & not able to complete a single z-tilt! Which version do you have on the U2C? The one on BTT github?

I believe I said that wrong. I set it to 500000 in the device tree setup but then ran my boards at 250000. I reflashed my firmware today at 500000 and the issue came back.

I am also just running a generic CAN to SPI breakout board.

I'm not really sure what the solution was for me but this is what i did:

  • Complete fresh install
  • Orange Pi 3 lts instead of rpi zero
  • Other higher quality usb cables

Be sure to watch this this video . The can software mentioned in the btt manual is crap and installation is a pain in the ass. The can software mentioned in the video didn't used to support the Gb0 chip but now it should support it.

I have this error when my bed is too out of level. Try doing a manual level first.

Also give the z min travel -5. Sorry don't have exact parameter name on phone.

I could be wrong and am mixing it up with probe failed to deploy error.

I ended up following this reply here and I have not had another timeout error while trying to home.

Basically changing TRSYNC_TIMEOUT value in “/home/pi/klipper/klippy/mcu.py” file from 0.025 to 0.050

I got this and it got worse over time. I was tearing my hair out. I kept getting undervoltage errors on my PI which was causing it to throttle. I was using a tablet plugged into one of the USB ports on the PI as a screen. Unplugging that seems to have fixed it. I've ordered a better power supply, hopefully that will fix it.

If you are using "dockable_probe.py" module. Take a look here .

This seems to have resolved my issue. Thank you for posting about it. :)

Edit: literally right after posting this, it happened again :(

I had the same today. But I am not using can. I Am using just the usb connection. My problem was also a bad connection! A little bit of hot glue on the dupont plug resolved the problem
