Mcrostepping / scaling problem
August 11, 2014 03:08AM
So i'm using repetier software in my delta but i have problems with X_MAX_LENGTH, Y_MAX_LENGTH and Z_MAX_LENGTH. Max length shoud be the distance between the hotend
and the platform when the printer is at its home position in mm. My distance is 404mm but when i turn microstepping on (16 steps) every print is like 6 times bigger and i only can set max length to 56 becouse higher values would destroy my hotend (hotend hitting bottom). Is this normal? What to do to have normal prints?

When you turn on microstepping you also need to increase the steps per mm with the same factor or a mm is not a mm any more but 16mm.
