V1 Max Post Ball Cup Arm & Carriage Issues

[Christian79]

Hello All,

I am not sure what I did wrong but my trusty V1 is no longer moving the end effector to the edge of the bed. I recently upgraded my V1 arms ball cups as well as the injection molded carriages. In addition I grabbed the most recent firmware off the master path on Github. The problem I am having is that when I perform the tower alignment process the end effector center will only get to within ~=70mm of the edged of the bed. I updated both my Diagonal Rod Length (290.8mm) and Horizontal Rod Radius (140mm). Finally I am still using Repitier host, but I have always used it for calibration.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Check the printer shape settings in Repetier, or MC or whatever other host program you're using. It sounds like the program is 'trying to help you' not crash your machine.

I have used the same profile for years in Repeiter, I also loaded Mater Control last night using the Rostock profile and had the same issues.

I wonder though, does Genes tower calibration script position the center of the end effector at the edge of the bed or has it always been about 70mm from the edge?

Using the jog controls, can you move the effector to the edge?
