Mini height sensor

Is anyone using this?

Wondering if it will work with the RAMBO. I've seen a couple other auto calibration setups on here but i felt like the information was scattered.

Looks nice! I'd also like to know if it will work with the Rambo, if so I'd probably order one.

should work with anything that has auto bed leveling.

Is there a guide for setting up auto bed leveling in repetier with a delta? I found this http://www.repetier.com/documentation/r ... z-probing/ but it says you need .92 and i haven't seen anyone with that on here. It would be nice if seemecnc updated their github firmware. I guess i could always run through the repetier setup wizard and give it my best shot. Autoleveling is on my most wanted list of upgrades for my printer after consistent ninjaflex prints.

I looked the other day, and the SeeMeCNC GitHub page has a note saying to use your existing configuratino.h file and to use Repetier's firmware builder tool from there.
Not sure if anybody's done it or not yet, though.

So far I'm not a huge fan of auto leveling. I get better results using a dial indicator and manually correcting any issues.

do you have a mount you can share for the dial? i got one but haven't had a chance to mount it and test it out.

Auto-level in a delta is USELESS. The thing you're after is auto-calibration and that's basically not possible on Arduino based controllers. 626 has done some excellent work on the Smoothieboard firmware (which is turning out to be pretty low-quality hardware.. ) and the stand-alone system that Rollie is working on. Rollie's runs on the host, not the controller.

Auto leveling vs calibration, is there a true difference? Does leveling just infer a flat printing surface with a parallel effector while calibration includes the level portion with the ability to mask a poorly built machine?

[geneb]

Auto-level really only works with a cartesian machine - it assumes that the X and Y motion is always moving in a flat plane. It can't handle things like bad horizontal radius, etc.

How does the one from repables work? Don't you need something to hold the dial indicator down so it doesn't pop back out?

What makes you say smoothie is low quality hardware

[geneb]

Recent experience that 626pilot has had with his. It may be a non-issue. I don't know.
