Hi,
Trying to get my first decent print in my newly built hypercube-alike printer.
Since it has a big bed (300 x 300) I'm using UBL (Unified bed leveling). I'm using a bltouch clone as Z sensor.
I've set an offset of X40 Y4 from the extruder to the bltouch tip.
Following the information from [
marlinfw.org] this is what I did:
- Flashed the firmware and reset the board
- Issued M502 and M500
- G28 to home XY
- G29 P1 - The printer starts probing some areas but in a disordered way. Instead of doing sequential points it's traveling back and forth which makes the whole process to take longer. Also, the LCD mention that x/100 points are tested but it seems only 64 are tested (it stops at 64/100).
- G29 P3 T - I do it a couple of times, I have no idea how many times I have to do it neither why.
- G29 T - I get the values below

- G29 S1 - to store the vaules in eeprom
- G29 F 10.0 - Not sure I understand what this is for (would it be that there will be no more bed leveling compensation from 10mm high onwards?)
- G29 A - to activate UBL
- M500 to save settings in eeprom
- reset the board
- G28 to home XY
- G29 T to see the values from above - Confirm they are there and not zero
- Load a test file to print.
- The result of first layer :
As it can be seen, something is wrong with the bed leveling. It's too high on the right and too low on the left.
I confirmed that the Z axis move as the extruder travels around, so it is supposedly doing his stuff, but likely to be using the wrong values....
Any idea of what am I doing wrong?
Thanks,
