zprobe loses autolevel
December 01, 2017 04:44AM
I'm using Marlin on my CNC. FIX_MOUNTED_PROBE, Z_MIN_PROBE_USES_Z_MIN_ENDSTOP_PIN. I make the autolevel every time, over the stock, before starting to machine. Everything works correctly. The problem is that when I need to change the tool, I like to do a zprobe after the change, but if I do that, the machine loses its autolevel and starts machining always at the same level.

homeing Z after doing a autolevel will erase the auto level data

Z probe acts the same as homming? Do you know where in the code data is erased

The auto level data is stored in the eeprom.
To clarify my previous statement,
If you do a
G29 ; probe bed level
G28 ; home all axis


G29 will perform the bed levelling ans store the results in the eeprom
G28 will home Z and this will reset the bed levelling data

so use
G29
G28 X0 Y0 ;home X Y
G1 Z0 F5000 ; move Z to 0
