endstop z still triggered after retract
Hello, just got through most of the errors in klipper for my first rat rig but this error has stumped me. So when I go to home all basically x and y work just fine (using eb42 v1.2 toolboard) for x endstop. But when it tries to home z it crashes into the bed. I have the super pinda probe and have attached my printer config below. Thanks everyone for your help!!!!!!

Here is my printer config. Using a ebb42 and have the super pinda hooked up
I'm on my phone but I think you need to comment out the overlapping lines that the "toolboard section" uses
So leave the toolboard ones, but scroll up to find the other probe section and comment those out
Ok after I commented the overlapping lines now it errors out with endstop z still triggered after retract
Okay, same thing for non-toolboard [probe] section
You mean the lines directly under the pinda probe line. There’s like 3 lines and I assumed those were all part of the pinda?
Ok here is the new printerconfig file after I updated it. Could someone look at it for me? It is still giving me the "Endstop z still triggered after retract" error. Basically it homes x and y and then goes back to center raises a bit and then this error happens and it doesn't cause a crash it just stops with this error.
did you get the PT1000 to work?
did you swap the motor direction?
you got the direction wrong in your setup
dir_pin: z1_dir_pin
you have the ! in front and that reverse the direction
line 203
all three z motors should not have the !
This is as of right now. It looks like I have the ! in front of all motors. still getting that z still triggered error. Basically when I home all it does everything fine except Z. The bed goes down a little and freezes. Wondering if it have something to do with the pinda? Can you look at those entries and see if I have it correct?
Here is what the console looks like.
It also shows the z endstop is triggered but that can’t be right because the plate is 10” below the nozzle currently!
You still have the ! In front of your. Z motors that's why it not working. Delete the ! And try again.
When you home it will move down a little but in your case it moves up towards the pinda which will trigger it to soon.
Ok sorry I misread that! I removed the ! On all z-motors and it still says the “Endstop z still triggered after retract”
This is the toolboard wiring from BTT
I have it wired according to rat os documentation which states blue/brown/black from top to bottom on the probe section.
But I don't think I have any toolboard pins referenced in my printer config. So could that be the reason the probe isn't working???
here is printer config after removing the !
good now move you bed down, turn off your motors so you can turn the shafts. Then try a homing the bed should move down the it will do X the Y and finally the bed.
WAIT YOU HAVE NO PROBE CONFIGURED
Ok here is a video of it homeing….. mind the mess I’m going to tidy everything when I know it works.
Well crap…… I have no idea what I’m doing ☠️🚬☠️🚬
i think it stops because if does find a robe
you have not configured your probe
Yeah you’re probably right. I just uncommitted the one probe area in the toolboard section.
yes line 275
and 274 to begin with
Wait my 275 is for the toolboard
alsi 218
you still have the bltouch configured on moment i send yu the file
👍👍👍👍
Ok same error
Ok, same error
do you have th probe on the bed?
It's mounted to the toolhead
ok
It still shows the endstop z triggered.
yeah thats not right did you follow tje guide for how to attah the ires?
I did exactly
I even re-wired it three times
did you wire the PT1000 like I told you or did you get it working
I think it’s working because I haven’t done anything with it but everything registers correctly.
good
I think it’s just the dumb endstop being constantly triggered now.
well in theory you have to do a refresh to see if it changes state
Just restart the firmware?
Oh yes I refreshed the endstops. Still triggered
It kinda looks like it’s referencing the generic probe in ratos. I don’t see anywhere that’s it’s referencing the super pinda probe. Could that be it?
wait I don't thini you should have endstop z when you use the probe
Isn’t the probe in replacement of endstop z
I don’t see anywhere to disable a z endstop.
yes that how mine is with the bl touh
well ihave x y and z endstop thats all
you have an extra one
So do you think it’s looking for a z endstop and also the super pinda?
Is there a line in my printer config that I can disable the z endstop?
I only see reference to x and y probes
i'm sorry but not sure
That’s ok. I will leave it open and hopefully someone will respond!!! Thank you for all your help! If I can’t get this working I have a bltouch coming tomorrow so I’ll message you back:-)
what is your current printer.cfg and what probe are you using?
You have it setup for a probe that is normally open, but the pinda probe is normally closed
I’m using the one above that synapsis provided with test.cfg
So if you are using a pinda probe you need
pin: ^toolboard:probe_pin # For NPN NC probes such as the Super Pinda / Vinda / SupCR / Decoprobe probes.I am using the super pinda probe
his config is referencing the wrong pins
notice how mine if prefixed with
toolboard: and his isn'tOk I’m pulling up printer config now
Do I just change it in the toolboard section or do I have to change something up above too?
Solution
change line 284 to
pin: ^toolboard:probe_pin # For NPN NC probes such as the Super Pinda / Vinda / SupCR / Decoprobe probes.on a different note, that sounds terrible. Have you lubricated your X and Y rails? Something sounds like it is grinding
Ok so in person it sounds fine. I’m not sure why the video made it sound so terrible!!!!!
that looks better, restart klipper and try it again
Mind the wires….. it’s all gonna get cleaned up once I got it working!!!!!
I think you got it!!!!!!
you are lucky it still registered with the bare aluminum. Next time do it with spring steel sheet
I didn't realize you didn't have the spring steel on yet
I thought you were supposed to test the height map first before putting on the magnet/pei sheet and the heated bed.
Once the height map comes back then if good attach that stuff. Maybe I misread….. this is my first ever from scratch printer build!!!! Although it’s been wicked fun!
The probe isn't as sensitive on aluminum. So you can try, but be prepared to hit the emergency stop in the event it doesn't sense it in time
Holy shit!!!! Should I put the magnet on and then pei sheet and try again?
you didn't do a z-tilt first
See…….. I’m nuts!
home, z-tilt, home, height map
Ok I’m on it!
How bad is that?
take a straight edge to it and see. If it really is .35mm off you should be able to see that
You know I checked that and it looks nearly perfect. I’m gonna re-run it with the pei sheet installed quick and report back.
you can also post in #fix-my-mesh and watch the pinned video there about adjusting your frame
This problem has been solved!!!! See toolboard pin reference up a few pictures for which line to uncommit. Thanks everyone!!!!!!
