Z-Probing working except right side (P2) is about 1mm too high compared to P1 and P3

in Repetier-Firmware
Hello,
I finally got the X-Probing to work and it's fairly accurate now on the left side to middle of the print area. But when it does to the right side where P2 measure the nozzle raises about .5 to 1.0 mm to high. Otherwise the nozzle passes the paper test close to P1 and P3.

This is my setup.

8mm induction sensor
Glass plate (400x400) with steel washers taped to the underside of the glass, they are flat and pressing evenly. First thing I checked.
bed is level within 1mm

I use the 3 point measuring method P1, P2, P3

I have bed coating set to 0 since I'm compensating for the thickness of the glass.

Any ideas why the right hand side it a little off? I can't think of anything else to check?

Thanks

    Did you correct using G32 S2? Also make sure no distortion correction is enabled. Then rotation will be selected such that the new plane goes exactly through the 3 points and thus error must be the same with autoleveling enabled (S2 will store and enable it permanently until you say differently).

    Hi Repetier,
    Yes... I'm using G32 S2 and distortion correction is set to 0

    What happens with
    G28
    G32 S2
    G1 p0
    G30
    G1 p1
    G30
    G1 p2
    G30
    in output. Please post the log of this with coordinates replaced correctly.Also make sure eeprom has the same values you shoed here from config.

    Thank you for looking into this. Here is the log after doing the above. I did notice that after doing G1 P0/G30... the movements between positions was VERY slow. Not sure if this is a bug or should happen?

    I've given up on the z-probe and the autolevel and went back to the old system. Maybe I'll go back to it again later.
    Thanks all.

    Same thing, it just doesnt work, back to Marlin :/
  • googliolagoogliola
    Counting the numerous questions about correct setup of Autoleveling with Repetier, it seems to me that this is the number 1 reason to go (back) to Marlin firmware. Unfortunately, with RADDS / DUE board, there is no current version of Marlin firmware, so I am stuck to Repetier
  • osnwtosnwt
    It seems that autoleveling and z-probing needs serious attention. I have a list of issues after I added an active Z-probe. I will post them in a separate thread or maybe better to the github for consideration.

    And yes, I confirm that there are issues with plane calculation, and right side has a bit wrong value for me, too.
