Hi I think I recall someone writing a calibration macro, but I’m not sure if it was for calibrating Y, testing squareness, or Z levelling. (all three would be handy). I’ve searched for 20 minutes and can’t find them. Does anyone remember seeing/writing them, or am I imagining them? (Sometimes I do…

Or alternative macros? thanks in advance..

I wrote a Z leveling script but I’m not sure what the best version is right now. You’d have to peruse this thread. I have intentions of updating a Z leveling WebUI 3 extension but who knows when I’ll get to that. [image] GCode Variables and Loops Jackpot Board / FluidNC …

Hi Jason, excellent. that was the one I remember seeing. I dont really know gcode other than G0 but I might give it a spin and see if will work for me many thanks Mike

I’ve not got your very cool macro/extension to work yet. I am using V3 of the GUI on a PC. I have tried running it as a file and also as a macro. The code runs, it homes x,y and z. Then it stops with the following message in the STATUS panel, “INFO: PRINT, Move to initial Y position 55” So I gue…

You’ll have to open that code in something like notepad ++ or vscode. The first few lines are instructions for things you need to change for your specific machine.

Yes I made edits to the code (parameters at top only) before I ran it. I didn’t change anything at the point where it hangs….. unless there was a typo on a parameter. I’m heading into workshop soon I will check then

Ive got to the workshop, everything is rebooted and still same problem. Also there were no problems with my edits, I double checked them and compared them to the last posted version of the code posted by Ryan in Notepad++ using a compare plugin. Could this be a problem with v3 of the GUI/FluidNC p…

Post your gcode and I’ll take a look. I will also note that Z leveling is the easiest part of calibration so I wouldn’t waste too much time on this.

zlevel.gcode (4.0 KB) many thanks. I dont know why but I found it very fiddly when I did it before. This will be a bonus if I can get it to work. Ive had various versions with different file type suffixes, .txt .g .gco .gcode but it didnt make much difference, I am clutching at straws.

Calibration Macros?

I posted and then thought I saw the answer in the list of threads on FluidNC. However the github repo it references has gone and its not on waybackmachine….

Does anyone have a copy of the files?
