Crown test digging to china

So followed the estlcam steps but the pen just crashes theZ axis… Is it trying to zero with the probe? Do I need to tell it is at 0,0,0 or something?

[Bartman]

Before you start, you need to tell the machine where Z=0 is. That is the purpose of the probe, although you can manually jog the Z axis until the pen is just touching the paper, and set the Z=0 at that point.

How you set the Z=0 varies by firmware type. G92 Z0 works for Marlin (and maybe FluidNC, IDK). With FluidNC, you can use the Zero button on the display (I think)

Then I’m your huckleberry! I don’t know FluidNC/Jackpot so well, but I’m pretty familiar with Marlin/SKR Pro v1.2.

Well she is working….. but flow rate is messed up two letters 5:mins

@Mike_Roper

but flow rate is messed up

This is usually an indication that you are using mm/s rather than mm/min when you are setting your feedrate output to gcode.

Marlin reads the gcode as mm/min. If you have the output set as mm/s, then the speed is 1/60th of what you need.
