g32 s2 misconfig?
Hi, I'm new to printing and these forums and wll hopefully creating contnt I can share with you all soon!
However I'm having issues printing. I just bought a Boots Industries V2.5 Delta 2nd hand and saw it working, got it home, calibrated it, got a couple of prints out of it, but then for some reason the command G32 S2 just stopped working suddenly after going through calibration a couple of times...
I have recorded a video of it here:
Basically when hitting G32 S2 the hotend doesn't move in any z direction and just moves around in x and y, storing the height of the bed as the end's current height. I've tried reinstalling etc. I'd been having some issues with it tearing the first couple of layers but now I can't do anything with it stuck and not able to calibrate!

Comments
as high as it can go and doing M119, it returns H for x and y, but L for
z - however that's always been the case since I bought it so I don't
think that's related.
Apologies if this is more info than you need,
but I opened repetier (boots industries version), ran g32 s2, then m119,
then moved the probe down to about 1cm above the bed, ran m119 again,
then g32 s2 again.

It's got something to do with the probe suddenly starting to be triggered where it's already at as opposed to moving down and being triggered by the pressure.
You're correct, G31 returns only the z-probe state and it's always returning H regardless of where the hotend is and whether the probe has been pulled out or not.
How do I fix this then?
My version is 'Boots Industries Repetier-Host BI V2.5 V1.0.6'. So I think it's an up-to-date version of Repetier? Past 0.96 atleast right? But then again, if M119 is supposed to return z-probe state on newer versions and it doesn't, I guess it's not up-to-date. When I click help>check for updates, it says it "can't find a connection to the server" though, even though I definitely am streaming youtube etc.
I also found this thread https://forum.repetier.com/discussion/1204/z-probing-trouble which I read but where do I find the '#define Z_PROBE_ON_HIGH' settings? I looked for a config file in program files, but could only find custom.ini
Thanks for your help guys, you were right!
I now have an issue of not being able to get the print to stick on the first 1 or 2 or 3 layers (let me know if I should post this somewhere else). Heated bed + hairspray etc, I just have no idea what's wrong. When I look horizontally at the extruder when it's printing I can see that the gap between end and bed changes on 1 side of the bed so obviously there's a calibration issue at the very least.
1. When I try using the height map (following the video at https://www.repetier.com/documentation/repetier-firmware/z-probing/), I can make the map, but G33 does nothing, and G29 only measures 3 points on the bed and doesn't correct anything (log pasted at the bottom).
2. This is all after doing manual calibration by getting the extruder to pinch a piece of paper - just how tightly do I want it to pinch the paper btw? Just so I can feel it pulling slightly? Or so that it's gripping the paper and I can't move it without tugging?

Side note:
When doing the height map, I don't get any mention of 'zCorr' like the guy in the video does, I instead get 'E' - what does 'E' represent?

And do you know if it would matter much if I downloaded and used the most up-to-date repetier software even though my printer has a dedicated (though seemingly outdated at this point...) version with custom settings?
Or would I be able to export all relevant settings to the new repetier version? I know I can export eeprom and and slic3r settings, are they only settings that would matter or is there something that I might not be able to copy over?
I'm not sure how to use that tool you linked me - I don't know what most of the settings should be on my printer, and it says that uploaded current settings need to have been made by that tool so I'm assuming that means I can't upload my current configuration.h?
Also I've run into another problem whilst trying to get the height map sorted (which I've been able to approximate by changing the z-probe coordinates to a smaller area which I'm actually using for a typical print), which is that 1 of the arms is missing steps (or seems like it), here is a video:
What are your thoughts?
Thank you for the help by the way - I would've probably quit and sold the printer without it haha
I've now run into another weird problem...
Basically I'm getting the extruded lines be wonky - except it only happens when the extruder is traveling a certain direction.
I made a video - you can skip through most of it until the end where I show it compared, but it's harder to tell with the yellow.
I took a photo of the same thing but on a red print so it might be easier to see
Any idea what's causing this? I just can't think that it can be the filament or something (been having issues with the feeder skipping) because it only happens at a certain direction. Though occasionally it changes - sometimes it's only wobbly left-to-right and then halfway through the print it changes to forwards-to-backwards.

I'm also now having an issue with my heated bed - its just stopped working for no reason (it was working a few hours ago and hasn't been moved or even touched other than to take a print off the bed), which isn't a huge deal in itself, but now I can't start prints because the print is waiting for the bed to heat up, which never happens. I've tried changing the bed temperate for 'first layer' and 'other layers' in filament settings configuration in slic3r to disable bed, but when I reset everything and try again with the new settings, the heat bed is still activated and the same issue persists with never starting the print
Is there another setting that I'm missing for disabling (or even fixing) the bed?
Btw do you guys accept bitcoin as donations?
I'm assuming the bed has become defected, but is there a way to disable the bed as a work-around for the print never starting?
I've tried changing the bed temperate for 'first layer' and 'other layers' in filament settings in configuration in slic3r, and set 'default heated bed temperature' in repetier>printer settings> printer - but when I reset everything and try to print, it still tries to heat the bed.
How can I disable the bed other than what I've already done? Btw repetier version is 0.91.

I just don't know how to stop it trying to heat the bed other than what I've done already?
Update: I found the faulty wire with the heated bed so I've fixed the issue and there's no need to waste more of your time on this, but now I'm just curious how you're supposed to disable the bed after the settings I tried didn't work haha
You also didn't tell me if you accept bitcoins as donation?
