"Nothing to do: Z Offset is 0"
I have issues with the firmware as it does not Save my Z Offset.
I am trying to Calibrate the Z offset with a piece of paper as we all do i assume and then i hit the blue button "Save Z Offset". The console is printing out as the title shows "Nothing to do: Z Offset is 0" even tough i have another value than 0. Also the SAVE CONFIG up in the right corner does not appear anymore....
Massive Layer shift after 2 hours
Starting last week I've started having significant issues with the X axis of T0 on my V-Core 4 500mm IDEX printer.
I'm getting a huge layer shift and it's very clear that the toolhead is no longer properly homed after a couple of hours mid-print. After cancelling the print, and it going to the park location, it's no longer on the ooze guard.
I heard a grinding sound coming from the carriage rail bearing for T0 several days ago. I disassembled the toolhead to see if there was something in there. I've cleaned the rail, and it seems to move ok, but I'm still concerned that there's a bearing issue. Could that be responsible here?...
Y layer surface only on X axes movements
Hey on my vcore 4 hybrid I have strange inconsistencies on the Z layer however this only happens on larger objects and only in front and back face. The left and right face is perfect.
I'm pretty sure it is not related to belt tuning. As this does not occur on some objects.
The printer is open and I do see a lot of movement/ vibration on the printer. I have 3 VCORE 3 printers and these are thanks no vibrations at all. However the VCORE 4 does not have corner brackets or maybe it is the different bigger rubber feet that give te illusion the printer is less sturdy. ...

I tightened alle the screws in the print head. There was a minor wobble in the printhead. So unscruwed the extruder and the pheatus retightened all screws and put things back together. First print is a succes.

The value 'T0' is not valid for MACRO
I saw an older thread with this error message with this answer
"T0 command is only used for multi tool printers. You have installed the wrong firmware or added some mods."
I am still clueless. I have updated everything and i have not change anything besides some slicer code.
I need help to solve this matter....
VAOC Camera Not Working
The VAOC camera had been working for several days on my VC4 500mm IDEX. Yesterday, I finished a print, let the machine sit for ~1 hour, came back, and now whenever trying to access the camera I just get a perpetual spinning icon (first photo). I've already double checked all the connections, and made sure everything is connected appropriately.
Running ls /dev/v4l/by-id/ on my pi results in the second photo (I have no other cameras hooked up to this machine).
Attempting to flash it using the 3do firmware tool on a windows pc results in the third photo. I asked in the 3DO discord and they suggested I try flashing it on a PC without an integrated web, which I did and got the 4th photo (which is reporting the VAOC as the same type of camera my Pi was - SPCA2650)....

V-Core 3.1 Toolhead 1.0 Commissioning Klipper Error
I have a enclosed 300^3 that was working without issue with a LGX large gears and Mosquito Magnum installed. I recently upgraded to the new v1 toolhead (orbiter and Rapido) and added an EBB 42 v1.2 toolboard to the upgrade as well. Once wiring was completed I continually received a Klipper shutdown notice stating that the extruder temperature was out of bounds. Maybe are some existing files that need to be removed and recalibrated? I tried #uncommenting the extruder lines just to see if I coul...
Solution:
Thank you for the assistance. After many rabbit holes, I found the first and second resolutions needed. The first issue was an error in wiring. By following the v-core 4 wiring suggestions for a v-core 3.1 (https://ratrig.dozuki.com/Guide/12.+Electronics/250#s2629) I mixed up the cables between the thermistor and the heater, as they are miss colored in the directions. After resolving the wiring issue the error still occurred, but now showed as negative degrees Celsius. (note - the jumper was implace as suggested for this toolboard) After multiple attempts to override the extruder sensor, the sensor temperature remained sensing excessive heat or negative heat causing Klipper to shut down.
The solution in this case was first to fix the wiring, and then followed by updating Ratos v2.1. After flashing my Rasp Pie and going through the configuration options setup, the extruder reads normal ambient temperature now....
