Z axis not moving after inital homing

Z axis not moving after inital homing
August 13, 2019 07:04AM
Hi all,
i had to replace the electronics and Firmware of my DuoCube printer.
All motors, endstops, hotends and the heatbed work fine.
I use a Bigtree SKR Pro 1.1 with Marlin 2 and TMC5160.
The endstops test out good using M119 and trigger reliably.
After initial homing the Z axis gets stuck on 0, even the short move back and for does not happen anymore. This does work on both x axis and Y.
After this i can execute X and Y moves and tool changes without problems, but all Z movement commands are just ignored.
Any ideas?
Cheers
Björn

... what's shown with M114? - which position is Z?

If i have HOMING_BACKOFF_MM defined it shows the defined value, otherwise 0. An actual movement after first contact with the endstop does not happen.

Just to be sure i switched motor and endstop of Y and Z, the behavior was switched as well so i can rule out motor and endstop.

... you can try with "G92 Z100" and "G92 Z-100" for different starting positions ...

The new position is shown, but nothing actually moves

... have you tried too with "G92 Z-10"?

Depending on your min/max settings it won't move outside the "allowed" space ...

*** EDIT ***
- the idea was to try:

G92 Z10
G0 Z0

G92 Z-10
G0 Z0

If one of the G0 Z0 works, then your min/max definitions have to be set correct ...

The second command set actually worked.
I have problems understanding why though since Z_MIN_POS and Z_MAX_POS seem correct to me
This is from configuration.h
// The size of the print bed
#define X_BED_SIZE 215
#define Y_BED_SIZE 200

// Travel limits (mm) after homing, corresponding to endstop positions.
#define X_MIN_POS -30
#define Y_MIN_POS 0
#define Z_MIN_POS 0
#define X_MAX_POS X_BED_SIZE
#define Y_MAX_POS Y_BED_SIZE
#define Z_MAX_POS 209

... hmmm ... my settings are similar.

Maybe the min/max and home-pos settings for Z in your software are not correct?

So far i only controlled the printer via the LCD or Repetier Host. In Repetier Host i set the printer size correctly and home to 0/0/0, just like always do.

M43? check all Z pins don't conflict with anything?

Definitly not a pin or endstop problem. The endstop status for all 4 is reported correctly at all times.
Edit: [youtu.be]
Interestingly the first homing did work when i filmed this, but a subsequent one didn't.

That video shows Z is moving in both directions..

So its moving to X 0, Y 0, Z 0



Use a control program send the printer the contents of the quotes "G1 Z10 F30"
This should move the Z axis up 10mm at (30/60) .5 mm/s

Does this move ? If it does your Z max feed rate is simply to high

If it doesn't then please provide more details, all the details.
You keep saying its fine, but you clearly can't see the issue...
And we cant help without all the details.

I would like to see the output of M119 after you home.
I would like to see the complete M503 output
And finally I want to see the output of M43
Re: Z axis not moving after inital homing

M119 shows all endstop triggered after both homing tries, the first that works and the second that doesn't. I already ruled out immediate endstop problems.
Z doesn't move after the incomplete homing, regardless the speed. Only if is set Z pos to a negative value i can get it to move, see Viktors and my post above. If it moves the speed is correct.
M503 delivers this

14:48:29.640 : M569 S1 T1 E

M43 is not recognized, maybe it is only implemented in Marlin 1? I am sure the pin assignment is correct since all endstops and motors work 100%

The SKR Pro does not have EEPROM and i did not enable the emulation.
