V-Minion autolevel problem #fix-my-printer

#fix-my-printer #v-minion Hello, I have problem with my V-Minion (now I'm on RatOS 2 and its stilo there). In attachment is photo of print and the bed map - no matter what I do with gantry, no matter how will look the bed scan - printer always "compensate" on the way that on one side its clearly too close and on the other clearly too far What can be the solutions since its probably soft problem?...

Smooth idlers VFA on Y axis

I have a V-Core 4 IDEX Disregard the horizontal lines issue (that was probably filament diameter fluctuation). I'm getting these vertical lines that I assume are caused by the smooth idlers of the Y motors. If you check the pictures, only the side where we have more Y axis travel has these. Can anyone confirm? Has anyone tested toothed idlers? The vertical patterns match the belts pitch. I get this on every print....

Fans turning off when powered

Having an interesting issue since setting up a voron 0 with RatOS 2.1 using an EBB36 toolboard - When the printer is first powered on, the hotend and part cooling fans sit at max speed, and when changing the speed in mainsail, it seems like the fan power is inverted, so at 100% fan speed, the fans turn off, and at 0% fan speed, they are at full speed. Interestingly, this is only happening on the fans connected to the EBB board, and the aux fans plugged into the Manta M4p work as expected Any help would be appreciated...

Lost Communication with MCU

Hi everyone, my Octopus v1.1 F46 board keeps losing connection to my Raspberry Pi 4B. I've already replaced the cable twice and tried different USB ports, but unfortunately, it hasn't helped so far....

Out of Range Error

I keep getting "Move out of range: 561.007 484.616 36.032 [7551.394]" error at random times and printhead locations. VAOC sets the limit to about 559 so I don't understand what is happening. I did find one post with the same problem and he added a 1mm shim to the x limit sensors and that solved his problem. But that is still confusing. Anyone have any idea on what the issue is? I've had this problem since the beginning.

Missing z_offset_probe when calibrating VAOC

Hey guys! When starting the VAOC calibration, I get the following error message: Error evaluating 'gcode_macro _START_VAOC:gcode': jinja2.exceptions.UndefinedError: 'extras.gcode_macro.GetStatusWrapper object' has no attribute 'z_offset_probe'...

Toolhead carriage clicking noise in middle of gantry

Anyone else ever hear this clicking sound as their toolhead moves along the X gantry? You can hear it at 0:03 and 0:18 in the clip https://photos.app.goo.gl/Z4HyQHudLK7f4eVW6...
Solution:
I've isolated the problem to the rear idler on the XY joiner. If I just barely touch the idler as te carriage is moving left to right, the noise goes away

Error during homing contact: No trigger on probe after full movement

I keep getting this error when starting a print. From the dashboard I can home all and z tilt. I was able to generate a test mesh so the beacon appears to be working properly otherwise. When starting a print the bed and hotend soak and come to temp and this error gets thrown.

5mm diff of diagonals in VC4 500

Hey community, newcomer here. I'm building my first RatRig, it's VC4 500 (IDEX if that matters). I now have it assembled up to the point where I have two toolheads and my T0/T1 belts are already tensioned. ...
Solution:
Especially being a vcore4, the connections should have self-squared it pretty well

IDEX motion, carriage 0 is correct, but carriage 1 is moving both

Getting the IDEX up and running, ran through the configurator for IDEX. But carriage 1 movement commands result in both moving diagonally. What did I miss? T0 move the correct distance and direction. T1 when ordered to move -10mm, both toolhead move towards each other and the entire rail moves towards the front of the machine....

Building my V-Core 4 but missing the (4) 5x8x10mm spacers in my kit

Would it affect the machine in any way if I use two 5x8x5mm spacers to replace the one 5x8x10mm one? Couldn't find any 5x8x10 that would arrive anytime soon. I personally don't think it will affect anything but since this is my first V-Core 4, I wanted to make sure. Also, will I need more further down the build? Tried looking. Thanks!...
Solution:
That should be fine, weird that it wasn't in your kit :/

vcore4 bed heater issue

Starting a new print after one is done.

So after a print on my VC3.1 - 300 is finished. Next time it starts up it just skipps in the extruder. If i prehead the extruder and open the bondtech extruder and tries to push it through. I just wont go. If i pull it out cut the end of at an angle and push it back into the extruder then i goes through the hotend with ease and extrudes out nicley. I have tried to dismantle the extruder and hotend and changed the ptfe tube in there to a new one. But still the problem persists. Do i need to pull...

Sensor extruder temperature not in range

Ratrig v core 4. I checked the crimping of the pt1000 cable - all good. One pin on the ebb 42 board for the jumper of pt1000 is shorter - should I solder the pins together, maybe the jumper is not working?
