Help with mini Kossel homing

Hi, I am struggling with getting my mini kossel to home. I am using repeiter and Arduino ver 1.5.5 for my machine, I have a problem though, I have never coded anything like this, so I might not know what I have done or had done it.

When I try to home in Repeiter, the Z axis plows into the endstop and keeps trying to go up and not stop. I keep having to Emergency stop it.

I'm really not sure where to edit the config, I built the mini kossel to Johann's specs but used his recirculating balls carriage design instead of the rails.

here is my config, maybe someone can make sense of it, I cannot. I don't know what to change, my build mirrors that of Johann's so my measurements are probally off.

You know, I might not know what I'm doing, but at least I will ask a question. So with the 40 something views someone should know how to fix this.

No expert, just being noisy and looking at your post, but it sounds like you have an issue with your end stops. After connecting to your printer in Repetier-Host, flip to the manual tab (you might need to disable easy mode in the software) and enter either m114 or m119 in the command line. One of the two will display the current status of your endstops.

When none of the endstops are triggered, they should all read the same. If not, you might need to reverse the settings in the Configuration.h file. I believe around...

It is also possible that you configured the min end stops rather than the maximum end stops.

Good luck.

Thanks I'll try that in the morning

10:33:59.052 : X:0.00 Y:0.00 Z:0.000 E:0.0000
10:34:40.034 : endstops hit: x_max:L y_max:L z_max:L

This is in the log of the endstops when I triggered M114 and M119 Gcode

I trigger the home button in Repeiter and the x,y,z goes up and slowly accends to the top and then all 3 still try to keep going past the endstops, where they keep hitting the endstops hard till I have to emergency stop the Mini Kossel.

So it looks like you have the max end stops configured correctly, with M119 returning the values as low (un-triggered).

With none of the endstops triggered, use the M119 command again to confirm that they are all still reading low (L). Then, holding one of the endstops down to trigger it, use the M119 command. If wired correctly, one of the endstops should read high (H), while the rest remain low. Ensure that the endstop readings correlate to the tower endstop that you are holding down. Repeat for each tower endstop.

If you are still getting all low values when holding down one of the endstops, you need to check your endstop wiring. I know I have made that mistake once or twice.

I have manually pushed each of the carriages up to the endstops and then sent the M119 command, and they all read endstops hit: x_max:H y_max:H z_max:H

So I think the endstops are working correctly, because when I don't push the carriages to the endstops they get this: endstops hit: x_max:L y_max:L z_max:L

So somewhere in the Config it is not working correctly, when I try to home all three carriages keep trying to push past the endstops and keep hitting them hard. I still have to emergency stop in Repeiter to get them to stop before something breaks or stalls.

You are not clear . . . have you checked the end stops *ONE AT A TIME*? If not, while they all activate, they may be sensing on the wrong tower . . .

I manually moved the carriage to x and get on the log it show for X: endstops hit: x_max:h
for Y: y_max:H
for z: Z_max:H

I did find however that I did at one time, by the looks of it and might have didn't know I did it, when I was reconnecting I accidently moved the positions of the stepper motor connectors to different positions and had the Y at the X and the Z at the Y connector.

now when I home it doesn't go crashing to the top but actually goes to the top and hits the endstops like usual, but has a small humming sound as it stays at the top and a red light on the Ramps comes on.

Glad you are making progress. Keep it up.

It is possible the humming sound is due to the steppers trying to maintain contact with the end stops (guess, not sure). I am not sure if it is ENDSTOP_X_BACK_MOVE or ENDSTOP_X_BACK_ON_HOME, but one of the two sets of 3 variables (X,Y,Z) should tell the carriages to back away from the end stops after homing.

I might try with the BACK_ON_HOME variables first, setting them all to 5, which should park the carriages 5mm from the end stops after homing. You might want to research the variables some more before trying that though. I am not sure what will happen.

Thanks guys for helping a newbie, I just entered in the BACK_ON_HOME variable to 5 and after it homes it parks the carriages 5mm.
After I have gotten that out of the way. I have invoked a dry run of a sample print that repeiter has. But I do have a problem it goes down half way and moves like it is printing something, but it won't go down to the bed to print it like it should. If I can solve this, the next thing I want to solve is why isn't my filament stepper not moving.

It does this:

I'm not sure what the variable is in that firmware, but it looks like you set the height wrong in the initial setup, or perhaps are at a higher microstepping than you are configured for.

My pulleys are 16 tooth and have GT2 belts. I however reset my Z_max Length as 220mm and it is getting closer to the bed, so a few minor tweaks and I should have it near the bed. But since I'm not using marlin because it is too hard to understand, I'm using Repeiter. I set the Z_max length in EEPROM settings in Repeiter.

Anyone know how to get my filament motor to engage or work in repeiter?

Try homing your printer and then measuring a fixed point, say from the nozzle to the bed. Then instruct your printer to lower the carriage 100mm and re-measure the distance to ensure your printer actually moved 100mm. To me it sounds like your steps per mm values are off, so when the printer thinks it has moved 100mm, it actually only moved 40mm.

As for the extruder motor, is your software correctly showing the temperature of the hot end? Room temperature should be in the 20 degree range, wrapping your hands around a COLD hot end should be able to increase the temperature a few degrees, possibly as high as 30 degrees. If the thermistors are correct, see if you can heat up the hot end to 200 degrees. Assuming all the wiring is working correctly, if you still can't extrude when heated (firmware prevents cold extrusion), you might need to adjust the voltages on the stepper driver for your extruder motor.

There is a guide from Triffid, [reprap.org], and another from Minow, [minow.blogspot.com], that I have found very helpful in the past.

I have found that my Z length is off, I had to edit it via the Firmware EEPROM Configuration. I have edited it to have it being 225.000 mm but it still doesn't get down to the bed except 10mm off the print bed surface. I don't know how to instruct the printer to lower the carriage 100mm. I have checked the steps per mm in Arduino and the Repeiter Firmware EEPROM config, they are both reading 100mm.

It's getting really frustrating trying to get my print head to the print bed. The printer is the same as the specs on Johann's mini kossel build, the only thing different is that I used the recirculating balls and a Merlin Hot end, everything else is the same. The Merlin hot end is the same size as a J-head type Hot end. What I cannot understand if someone else had build a mini kossel, why don't they post at least the Proper Z length or something within the likes of a firmware to a mini kossel.

Just maybe I might be able to actually go from there and make sense of it, instead of having to experiment and keep moving backward on trying to get it to work. Awhile back I attended ITT Tech for CNC machines but dropped out after 1 1/2 semesters because I couldn't understand this type of movement of X,Y,Z. I was hoping that maybe if I could build my own 3d printer, just maybe some one had a firmware I could use to make it work, w/o going nuts on why my printer won't work.

I'm not asking for an easy fix, just a firmware of sorts for this type of printer.

Once you home the printer, what do you measure from the tip of the hot end to the build plate? That will get you a starting point for Z height, and you adjust it from there so that when you send the head to Z=0, it's at the plate.

Moves are via the G1 command - G1 Z10 F3000 tell the printer to move Z to 10mm at 3000mm/min. T go lower, G1 Z-1.5 F400 will slowly take the head to 10mm below where the bed *should* be at 400mm/min. If you are above the bed, lower as I just showed until you touch the bed (search for the paper test). Take the negative value you needed, add it to the Z heifht (the number gets *bigger*), rehome and retest . . . This should put Z=0 on the plate. RE X, Y, and Z, simpiy put, Z is height, X is left and right, and Y is front to back . . .
