VAOC move out of range. x-offset too high
Hello,
i have a strange new issue with the printer and i dont know why.
I have the console output attached as well as my printer.cfg
maybe someone knows why or what happened.

I resolved my issue. Apparently, RatOS is very particular about the relationship of the IDEX X end stops and the VAOC camera. I noticed that when I did a _VAOC_RESET then VAOC calibration, the initial position of both extruder nozzles was just about out of frame of the VAOC camera. I tried adding a thin shim on the plastic for the end stops and it made it worse. I have a Funssor gantry mount which I had to make a plastic filler to engage the end stops. I moved them away from the gantry center ab...

I probably found the issue. It has something to do with the position of the endstops. the distance between the trigger points is possibly static and assuming that the printer is 100% OEM. by having a side wall or a custom made endstop carriage, and the distance between the two trigger points have been increased or decreased, the system will throw an error if the distance between the trigger points is not accurate to what the system assumes.
so to solve this, i am designing some walls where the endstop triggers to get an offset between the toolheads to match the assumed distance.
Cant you ovveride OEM value? i have also custom idex printer, and have similar problem with VAOC calibration
.
Yes man... indeed this sounds like the problem we're faceing
Any updates on this? I can't get past the skew_calibration.

I moved them away from the gantry center about 1 mm and I don't get the "x-offset is too high for the available parking space" error any more.
I'm having the same issue that you were having. Can you add some pictures of the filler so I can get a better understanding of your solution?
I use the funssor lightweight gantry joiner. the files for the fillers are at https://www.printables.com/model/1280819-ratrig-v-core4-funssor-cnc-xy-joiner-modified-stop/files

Thank you, I'll give it a shot. Another user told me to comment out the gantry squaring line in the printer.cfg file and that solved my problem. Do you have it in your .cfg file?
I did not comment out gantry squaring in printer.cfg
That is interesting. I wonder what the cause is. Doesn't make sense that moving the limit would fix the problem, is the VAOC location hard set?
