Y Axis does not move probably while printing
Hello,
I have a problem with my Y Axis. If I print something every layer is moved some mms back so the print is not straight up. On the X Axis it is perfect. I have Repetier-Firmware 0.92 and tried it with MatterControl and Repetier-Host. Same Problem.
I hope anybody can help me

I have enabled endstop checking and no longer go beyond the limits of the bed. However, I am still dropping Y steps, still always away from the endstop (not moving the bed away from Ymin). Eventually, within the first few layers, the extruder ends up building a puddle of PLA as it moves back and forth along Y=0. The wire for the endstop is a ribbon and so can't easily be braided. Must this have a shielded cable or something?
Thank you for your continued help.
So I am using the Firmware 0.92.8, and am having an issue where the Y Axis seems to be moving out of sequence.
The Y Axis seems to be moving fine for a couple of layers, then the print moves offset a few mm, in the direction of the Y Axis.
The movement is the away from the Y Axis end stop.
Then for a layer or two, the print seems to not offset again.
Any suggestions of how to fix ?
#define ALWAYS_CHECK_ENDSTOPS 0
so it does not test endstops during print. With crosstalk wrong signals can cause this. An indication if it is always away from endstop and never the other direction.
Hey,
Thanks for the response...
when i checked the setting "#define ALWAYS_CHECK_ENDSTOPS 0", It seems that this was already set to zero....
Sorry I was wrong in my previous comment.... "The movement is the away from the Y Axis end stop."
The Y Axis is moving towards end stop when I have the issue...
any other suggestions ?
Well changing the xy jerk and y acceleration did not seem to help
XY jerk now set to 10
Y acceleration now set to 100, then 500
any other suggestions ?
