are being tested on repetier 0.90 with Zprobe.
how can I use the command script to do from my Delta to trigger the level of the axes?
I see in the compilation config.h exist a command Start and End sript
/** These scripts are run before resp. after the z-probe is done. Add here code to activate/deactivate probe if needed. */
#define Z_PROBE_START_SCRIPT ""
#define Z_PROBE_FINISHED_SCRIPT ""
how to do this from the command line?
what to put in quotation marks
have a probe model Mini Kossel Johann Rocholl
to enable shutter release like in the video

The scripts are simple gcode commands with a \n between two commands. Put the same commands there like you would send otherwise over the manual control.
So if you would send
you would set
Thats all. As soon as the probe is needed, the command gets send. Because it is always run if needed, there is no command line call to trigger this.

So if you would send
G1 X120 Y100 Z200 F6000 G1 X140 Y100
you would set
#define Z_PROBE_START_SCRIPT "G1 X120 Y100 Z200 F6000\nG1 X140 Y100"

I can not do start the script
I digits G32 and no commands work scripted
these are the commands to enable swicth with a slap on the X axis
# define Z_PROBE_START_SCRIPT "G1 x-113 y-36 z20 F5000 \ nG1 x-92 y-67 F5000"
end this script instead:
# define Z_PROBE_FINISHED_SCRIPT "G1 x7 Y-108 F5000\nG1 z0 F5000"
many thanks for your reply

Please use uppercase letters as required for gcode. Then it should work.

excuse the many questions
I get this when I send G29 Log

Z-probe: xxx
is the distance, the printer went down until the z-probe switch triggered. The X and Y are the coordinates where it was tested.
Z-probe average height:10.53
is the average height over the last 3 tests which got executed during G29

Hi very nice firmware en host package I like but like al new comers to 3D printing we do get lost I build my first Delta www.gillybot3d.co.za and I would like to use the z probe with a servo to deploy and retract but don't know how to trigger the servo all is working probe and servo but do not know how to implement it in to the G29 please help thanx and again great job nice piece of work

You trigger the servo with this command:
- M340 P S : servoID = 0..3, Servos are controlled by a pulse with normally between 500 and 2500 with 1500ms in center position. 0 turns servo off.
at least if you configured it correctly in Configuration.h. Find out the two pulse widths for on and off and there you go. Only problem is the servo will run all the time or you need an additional relay to turn power on/off. For that you can use M42 to toggle a unprotected pin (not used for important functions) that switches the relay.

Thanx for the response but I am still lost the firmware side beats me I got the servo to move if I send the M340 P0 S500 and then try the G29 but it gave me Z probe fail but no worry I know u are a busy man so won't bother u with small stuff I will keep on trying thax a lot and again good job my Delta is running a lot smoother with Repetier

The codes are already in the configuration.h, but only in the development version on github!

Hello repetier
every thing is going great , execpt that im trying to run auto level ( i did some reading and i understand that some other ppl have this kind of issue )
im getting 4 point probing and did that for 4 time using this commend G32 PS2 P0 AND P1 AND P2 AND P3
its seems that when im trying to print i get and unlevel surface for example on the -x SIDE THE NUZZLE GOING DOWN AND ON THE x SIDE THE NUZZLE GOING UP BY 7 MM
when im preforming the check the firmware return that my everge hight is 7 mm
i was trying allso to do a manual leveling and run the auto probe again and no results .
what am i doing wrong ??
BEST REGARDS AND THANK YOU FOR THE SUPPORTING =)

Sounds like you have a delta printer. The code for delta calibration is not good. I'm currently working on a new calibration/z-probing method that should work much better and easier. It is nearly finished but has currently one last error I'm searching. Watch for the next dev version if you see "new z-probe for delta" or something like that.

First, you should have your z endstop end z-max if you do z-probing. You can have also a z-min endstop, but you need to set it up in a way, that the extruder has to press the bed a bit to get triggered or measuring z min might get interrupted by the z-min endstop.
For the z-probe you need a separate switch. Where you connect it to your board is not important, as long as you set the pin number/invert values correct. If you have a free endstop input, that is a good choice. For autoleveling that z-prope must be fixed at the extruder so it triggeres before the nozzle hits the bed.

I'm sorry to write, but I use google translator to read / write.
I do not understand the English translation Italian?.
on Delta system, I can use the probe connected to the Z Min??
while all the towers are on Max Limit.

Yes, that is what I said.
Note on deltas: Probing works not as it should there. I'm working on a fix for this.

Ok, special case for delta:
Put the z-probe near your extruder and make sure that the probe hits the bed before the extruder does.
