Issues with Beacon Calibration and Input Shaper on VC 3.1 500
Good day,
I have a VC 3.1 500 with the Ratrig toolhead, Beacon H, Sherpa Micro, Rapido UHF 0.6, BTT Octopus, BTT 42 V1.2 Toolboard, CNC Gantry, and CNC motor mounts. However, I am struggling to get it to work properly.
The Beacon calibration only works very rarely, and I always get the error "Exceed Sample Tolerance." The bed mesh has a deviation of around 0.6mm— is this normal for this bed size, or is it too much? The first layer isn't good, especially on larger prints. The Shaper graphs also don’t seem correct. The graphs captured by the Beacon are significantly different from those recorded by the Toolboard.
The Shaper graphs from today were recorded with the Toolboard, while those from February 6th were recorded with the Beacon. No changes have been made in the meantime. Additionally, the belt tension test results from the Toolboard and the Beacon are also very different: the one with the largest peak at 130Hz is from the Beacon, and the one with the largest peak at 37Hz is from the Toolboard.
I have mounted the Toolboard vertically and have not rotated the sensor axes.
I have not found any mechanical issues, though I suspect there might be some. Has anyone else encountered similar problems, and if so, how were they resolved?
I configured the printer with RatOS v2.1 RC3, which worked very well.
Please help!
