Originally, I had appended the issue I was seeing in the 4.1 Calibration Issues and Questions thread, but @bar asked that we start new threads for different issues.
I am attempting to calibrate a Maslow 4.1 in a Horizontal setup. I have drop-in anchors at roughly 12’x8’. I have measured the 4 side lengths and the corner-to-corner lengths. This gives me the following coordinates.
- bl: (0, 0) mm
- br: (3635.38, 0) mm
- tl: (20.79, 2447.25) mm
- tr: (3658.93, 2433.91) mm
I cannot make it through the initial part of the calibration process. The Maslow will record Waypoint 0-6 and then attempts to calculate the fitness of these points. It seems to get as high as 0.37 but eventually over time it will continually return values in the 0.24-0.25 range. It doesn’t matter how long I let the browser try new calculations. The fitness never makes it to 0.45.
Everything else on the machine seems to work well. The assembly went smooth. I purchased a 4.0 machine in the original Kickstarter and never assembled it. I started assembly last week and used the 4.1 replacement parts during my initial build. All the encoders seem to read correctly. If I perform extend all followed by retract all, my largest offset is usually 0.04mm. My belts are extending to 2150mm which gives a couple of extra inches on the extend all.
I am attaching the latest serial output from my last attempt at calibration. Can anyone help figure out what is going wrong that is preventing this from calibrating? I know that @bar has been working on a calibration video, which I am hoping comes out this week so that I can attempt this with a follow along guide.
