Issue with belt tension graphs
Hey everyone, I'm building a V-Core 4 IDEX (currently CoreXY). Everything looked fine until I started testing belt tension. No matter what I do, the upper belt always has more tension than the lower one. At some point, the gantry became tilted and now it can’t reach the Y-axis endstop. Any ideas on how to fix this?

That plot is actually quite good. It's much more important the peaks line up rather than have exactly the same amplitude. In your case, they line up great as well as having nearly identical amplitude.
If the gantry is now so out of square due to belt tensioning that you aren't making contact with your endstop, something else is very wrong - that'd be very out-of-square I think
I fixed it, the gantry is OK now. How about the IS graphs?
Looks petty clean! Now time to see how it prints
And is it normal to hear humming noise while the printer is just waiting? TH vibrates and makes some noise
And it stops if I send motors off command
Mine is pretty quiet when idle... I can hear the controller fan if I listen for it
Thanks! Maybe I should create another ticket for that.
