beacon_initial_calibration issue
Now I have the next problem:
While proceeding the homing sequence with beacon_initial_calibration the printer first homes Y (ok) - the X-Axis moves back and rests in the middle - then X T0 (ok) and X T1 (ok).
Both toolheads rest on their oozeguard parts. When now the bed is homing, it moves upwards, but can't get in contact with the beacon module as it rests "outside". So the motors now chatter on the top ...
As I read in another post, T0 should move in the middle of the printbed, but it doesn't on my printer
What do I make wrong?

The problem has somehow solved itself, but I don't know how.
The problem is related to the homing procedure in X. T0 moves to the end stop as normal and then wants to return to the center and is blocked by something. When I tried to take a closer look at the problem and only start Home X, it suddenly drove back to the center. Now “beacon_initial_calibrate” has also worked and I can continue.
Nevertheless, I would be interested to know what the problem might be.

How tight are your belts?
The belts are relatively loose.
T0 moves very easily from right to left by hand and very heavily from left to right - with T1 it is exactly the opposite.
Yeh, I'm pretty sure you're just skipping teeth on the belt because they're too loose. Tighten the belts a bit and try again
I tightened the belts a little bit and the motors couldn't move the belts, so I think, that my belt-tension is ok.
This sounds like you have another issue
You're going to run out of tensioner travel before you get to the point that your belts are so tight the motors can't move them
