okay use that

will change some more stuff, but start with this

weak elk Aug 17, 2022, 1:47 AM

use the one you posted or am I waiting for it to load?

yes what I posted

I made a small edit

hardy sentinel Aug 17, 2022, 1:49 AM

remove [gcode_macro START_PRINT] for now

we dont need to start you with that stuff yet, baby steps

weak elk Aug 17, 2022, 1:49 AM

ok

It homes correctly and with bl-touch in middle X not Y

hardy sentinel Aug 17, 2022, 1:52 AM

#

okay so after it homes, send it to x 50 y50

#

then measure how far you have on the x and y MGN12 rails on the left side and front side

#

tell me how much exposed rail you measure

weak elk Aug 17, 2022, 1:54 AM

110 left on x rail and 112 left on y

update xy sections to this

then after homing move to x 10 y 10, if you have 10mm left to move in both directions then move to x0 y0

#

and look at how close you are to the left and front edge of the bed

weak elk Aug 17, 2022, 2:03 AM

#

it went the worng way when homing

hardy sentinel Aug 17, 2022, 2:03 AM

did you change something?

weak elk Aug 17, 2022, 2:03 AM

no, x went left not right

now it doesn't home bl-touch in middle

hardy sentinel Aug 17, 2022, 2:05 AM

#

thats okay

rare gate Aug 17, 2022, 2:05 AM

#

wheres the noszzle though

hardy sentinel Aug 17, 2022, 2:06 AM

#

we need to set the limits for xy first

#

then we adjust the bltouch and bed mesh

weak elk Aug 17, 2022, 2:06 AM

#

hardy sentinel Aug 17, 2022, 2:06 AM

#

is that at x10 y10?

#

or x0 y0

weak elk Aug 17, 2022, 2:06 AM

#

x10y10

hardy sentinel Aug 17, 2022, 2:07 AM

#

move it to x0 y0

#

moving you in small steps to avoid a crash 🙂

#

but this is also how I setup any printer I work on in front of me as well

#

then measure how far the center of the nozzle is from the left edge of the bed, and front edge

weak elk Aug 17, 2022, 2:10 AM

#

6.25mm on x from very edge of bed, and 13 on Y

hardy sentinel Aug 17, 2022, 2:10 AM

#

okay, one more adjustment, then we can move on to the bltouch

then update the X, Y values in

#

with what numbers you have for your center bed position

weak elk Aug 17, 2022, 2:19 AM

#

is the actual bed size of ender 5+ 350x350?

#

ah its actually 370x376mm

hardy sentinel Aug 17, 2022, 2:21 AM

#

yes, but your endstops are past the bed, which is fine

#

well bed size is 377 wide by 370 deep

#

in slicer set it to 370 on x and 360 on y

weak elk Aug 17, 2022, 2:25 AM

ok I have it as

[safe_z_home]

#

that is bl-touch dead center

hardy sentinel Aug 17, 2022, 2:32 AM

#

and did you try that? is it centered?

#

I cannot recall if we need to adjust for the nozzle offset or not

weak elk Aug 17, 2022, 2:33 AM

#

when homing, the bl-touch is center

#

we havent adjusted nozzle offset

weak elk Aug 17, 2022, 2:38 AM

#

hardy sentinel I cannot recall if we need to adjust for the nozzle offset or not

does it list it for the EVA setup?

hardy sentinel Aug 17, 2022, 2:50 AM

I tossed offsets in there

let me double check what it should be, I think I set it right

#

[bltouch]

#

that is what I used to run

weak elk Aug 17, 2022, 2:52 AM

#

I dont have anything past the "pin_up trigger"

hardy sentinel Aug 17, 2022, 2:53 AM

#

just replace your bltouch section with that

#

ohh wait, include your pins

#

that one is stripped of pins 🙂

weak elk Aug 17, 2022, 2:58 AM

#

fixed it

#

It does a weird half probe

#

oh I guess thats the "stow_on_each_sample = false"

hardy sentinel Aug 17, 2022, 3:00 AM

#

yeah, makes it faster 🙂

#

you can try your bed mesh. What I do for setting up the min/max settigns on bed mesh is start with values I know will stay on the bed

#

like 50,20 for min and 330,360 max

#

then adjust the min and max as I feel needed

weak elk Aug 17, 2022, 3:03 AM

#

ok do I need to adjust my slicer

weak elk Aug 17, 2022, 3:06 AM

#

hardy sentinel then adjust the min and max as I feel needed

It went too far back

hardy sentinel Aug 17, 2022, 3:07 AM

#

lower y max as much as you think you need

#

maybe 340

weak elk Aug 17, 2022, 3:13 AM

#

set it at 335

#

@hardy sentinel Do I have to change origin in super slicer?

hardy sentinel Aug 17, 2022, 3:19 AM

#

no

#

well shouldnt have to

#

#

just set your size to 370 and 360

#

actually I need to update mine, I have more print space than that on my 5 pro now

weak elk Aug 17, 2022, 3:24 AM

ok I'm gonna try a print

Good catch, I forgot about that. You're just trying to preheat the nozzle at a temp below your filament will ooze at

due to bed mesh and probe offset, you will loose some travel

#

dunno why, its math stuff with klipper

#

setting it to 405 might work

weak elk This is how the patch print came out. How can I make it better

The middle 2 look alright

weak elk Aug 18, 2022, 1:10 AM

#

the thing is, they were all the same z offset

#

printed at 30mm/s

You need to level your bed, and run more probe points on you bed mesh then.

#

9,9 grid for bed mesh, I had you run a low grid count to set it up and forgot to have you increase the points

weak elk Aug 18, 2022, 2:24 AM

#

Leveled the bed like 10 times and slight improvement

hardy sentinel 9,9 grid for bed mesh, I had you run a low grid count to set it up and forgot to...

bed_mesh: cannot exceed a probe_count of 6 when using lagrange interpolation. Configured Probe Count: 9, 9

algorithm: bicubic

#

this is what I run on my 5 pro, but its flat enough that a 5x5 is fine.

[bed_mesh]
speed: 300
horizontal_move_z: 12
mesh_min: 5, 30
mesh_max: 260,245
probe_count: 5,5
fade_start: 0
fade_end: 10
algorithm: bicubic

#

ok I added algorithm: bicubic

#

is there any other way to upload parts besides sending it thru mainsail?

rare gate Aug 18, 2022, 2:49 AM

#

what do you mean?

#

like send it directly from slicer to printer, without using the web ui?

#

I know about that, its just my upload speed is really slow so its takinf forever to upload thru the wifi

hardy sentinel Aug 18, 2022, 2:51 AM

#

it should just be over your wifi?

#

nothing to do with internet

weak elk Aug 18, 2022, 2:51 AM

#

yeah

hardy sentinel Aug 18, 2022, 2:51 AM

#

purely network

#

you can save to an SD card

weak elk Aug 18, 2022, 2:52 AM

#

yeah wifi, just slow thru there

#

ok and where do i access sd card print option?

rare gate Aug 18, 2022, 2:53 AM

#

right next to export g code

weak elk Aug 18, 2022, 2:54 AM

#

yes but when I save it to sd card and put it in machine where is the option to print from sd

rare gate Aug 18, 2022, 2:55 AM

#

that..... is a good question

hardy sentinel Aug 18, 2022, 2:56 AM

#

never tried...

weak elk Aug 18, 2022, 2:57 AM

#

well time to learn something new

rare gate Aug 18, 2022, 2:58 AM

#

@hardy sentinel do you have a screen on your mercs?

hardy sentinel Aug 18, 2022, 3:00 AM

#

nope
