#VAOC T1 x not lining up

I'm stuck. I line the two tool heads up in the VAOC config but then when it comes time to calibrate the z offsets T1 on the x doesn't line up with the probe. It's about 10mm off on the x. When I try to start over I get "Error evaluating 'gcode_macro _VAOC_CALIBRATE_TEMP_OFFSET:gcode': gcode.CommandError: Unexpected VAOC y-control point detected! Please run '_VAOC_RESET' to roll back to default values"
Also when I start the config the gantry hits the back of the machine. I think it's about 1mm off

please post a debug zip

So I figured it out but leaving the post up for others. You can change the y control point under Ratrig varables. When the gantry was hitting the back it was moving the heads out of alignment. I think Ratrig should change the default y control point to something lower

#

It's set to 533 on the 500, I changed it to 531

#

This seems like a problematic y endstop installation or no endstop limits calibration.

#

the y control point won't be your only issue

#

y-control point on all v-core 4's is size + 30.5 btw

#

Not 533, but 530.5 on a 500.

#

the controlpoint variables change when you align the nozzle in VAOC.

#

So you set it to 533 yourself

#

Maybe I messed something up on my first try and it registered it 533 in the ratos_varables. Where the saved varables section you just posted

#

You wold think it would go back to default when doing a VAOC_reset

uneven orchid
#

You're changing the values saved to disk. The defaults are no longer there when you've told it where your nozzle is (by dragging the picture).

#

AFAIK there's no "reset".

candid saffron
#

it was in an error message so I did _VAOC_RESET

uneven orchid
#

I see it in your message now, missed that part.. It doesn't exist in the code, did you get another error when you ran that?

#

@open raft Are we supposed to have a _VAOC_RESET?

candid saffron
#

I kept getting that message and couldn't try again until I sent that command

uneven orchid
#

Jesus.. i was looking in the wrong codebase 😂

#

I see what's going on now

#

And they're only set when you run _VAOC_RESET

candid saffron
#

mystery solved, it seems to be working now

#

Removing those variables from the static config and putting the into the configurator so they'll always have the correct values.

candid saffron
#

where do I find the static config? Is that the file that says ratos_varables

uneven orchid
#

the configurator dynamically renders RatOS.cfg and ratos_variables.cfg (and others)

candid saffron
#

Thanks, found it

uneven orchid
#

And by "remove" (typo) i meant "removing" as in "i'm removing"

#

You don't need to do anything 🙂

#

Other than update

#

Just pushed the fixes

candid saffron
#

I did the update and the first thiing I got was this " Error evaluating 'gcode_macro _START_VAOC:gcode': gcode.CommandError: Unexpected VAOC x-control point detected! Please run '_VAOC_RESET' to roll back to default values."

#

It takes a few minutes to compile

#

so you may have been a tiny bit too fast 😅

candid saffron
#

I'll do that now, thanks

open raft

#

I did the updates and now I'm getting this "Option 'gcode' in section 'gcode_macro VAOC' must be specified"

sec

#

Hmmm.

uneven orchid
#

ah it's _VAOC facepalm

#

@candid saffron update compiling, ready in 10. Sorry, that was stupid... again 😂

candid saffron
#

You're doing a lot, it happens

candid saffron
#

Seems to be working again, thanks

then redo VAOC calibration
