Marlin: Error Auto Bed Level on Marlin 1.1.5 and 1.1.6 in Geeetech Prusa i3 Pro B

[Pablo-GNU]

Hello, I'm trying to get work a BLTouch sensor in a Geeetech Prusa I3 Pro B. All the hardware is working and I can get the grid from the sensor with the different values.

Bilinear Leveling Grid:
0 1 2
0 -0.355 -0.130 -0.250
1 -0.165 +0.105 -0.080
2 -0.175 +0.060 +0.162

But when I print this grid is not applied so the leveling is not working. Here is an photograph.

My Cura starting code is this.

M851 Z-0.7 ;
G21 ;
G90 ;
M82 ;
M104 S{material_print_temperature} ;
M140 S{material_bed_temperature} ;
M190 S{material_bed_temperature} ;
M109 S{material_print_temperature} ;
G28 ;
G29 ;
M420 S1 ;
G1 X0 F12000.0 ;
G1 Y0.0 F12000.0 ;
G1 Z0.1 F12000.0 ;
G92 E0.0 ;
G1 X60.0 E9.0 F1000.0 ;
G1 X100.0 E21.5 F1000.0 ;
G92 E0.0 ;

I try with and without M420 S1 and always the same. The system is configured with the Bilineal method.

Here are the configuration and configuration_adv files.

Configurations.zip

I don't know what more I can try. The Lineal system do exactly the same. RCbugfix doesn't work too.

I anybody can help me.

Thanks for your time and sorry for my English.

[guiseco]

Same problem every where. Bilinear do not work for me. I'm using LINEAR.

Thanks for answer. If you have the same printer and your board is gt2560 a+ please can you send me your firmware and conf files. I try linear but it doesnt work.

[fiveangle]

Have you both tried these options ?

//#define PROBING_HEATERS_OFF       // Turn heaters off when probing
//#define PROBING_FANS_OFF          // Turn fans off when probing
//#define DELAY_BEFORE_PROBING 200  // (ms) To prevent vibrations from triggering piezo sensors

[luismi7777]

Im the same problem have you solved?

[Pablo-GNU]

Hi everybody. Recently I change the firmware from 1.1.5 to 1.1.6 and I make some test from different methods. Lineal and BiLineal. The results are the same.

@fiveangle yes I tried these options.

@guiseco The lineal method doest work for me.

On this video you can see the BiLineal method

and on this video you can see the Lineal method.

I don't know how to fix it.

@guiseco @fiveangle @thinkyhead This is my last test.

I just performed a manual calibration for the bed and everything it’s ok.
After the calibration then i perform a Z-Probe Repeatability Test and this are the results:

With this results i send a G29 command and there is the results:

Now, if i send a G1 Z0 on one corner (X186 Y181) the nozzle is touching the bed without level.
So i calibrate the bed without doing G28, moving the nozzle with G1. (G1 X0 Y0 G1 X0 Y181, G1 X186 Y181, G1 X186 Y0)
After check that everything it’s ok i repeat the G29 command with this results:

Bilinear Leveling Grid:

1 +0.177 -0.343 -1.301

6 +0.06625 -0.08958 -0.24542 -0.45000 -0.73583 -1.07042 -1.40500

And now again if i send G1 Z0 on the same corner (X186 Y181) the nozzle hits the bed.

It’s anything bad with the G29 command and the mesh calculation?

@thinkyhead hello. Any update on this?

[iz3man]

would be interested to see some update as well.
i see that with bilinear abl the z-axis is moving up and down to compensate, but it seems it's undercompensating on one side, and overcompensation on another.
no idea what's going wrong here.
using marlin 1.1.6 with a DC42 ir sensor.

[thinkyhead]

Please test the current bugfix-1.1.x branch and report back. Issues might be fixed.

[Pablo-GNU]

I will try it now. Later I come back with feedback. Thanks.

[Pablo-GNU]

Hello. @thinkyhead the results are awesome. Now the printer makes the bed level okey. I have to make some changes on the pins configuration for the GT2560 because the pin for the BLTouch is not defined well. And I have to increase the time for the bed heater because the systems halt. But for the rest, I can't be more happiest. I'm using bilinear.

Thanks for the support.
