Guys,
I've seen several people mention calibrating the delta radius. I've never done this step. Any links to the post? Again, the search feature on this forum stinks, couldn't find any relevant results
DELTA RADIUS?

Re: DELTA RADIUS?
I use Google to search the forums because the search function here is so bad. In Google search put in site:forum.seemecnc.com (what you are searching for)
If I use the Forum search to find "repetier" it won't search so I go to Google and type in site:forum.seemecnc.com repetier and it finds a lot of entries.

Re: DELTA RADIUS?
I followed the minow blog, and found that I had a 0.20mm hump in the middle (M114 reports 0.19 for Z, so fine, 0.19). But when I look up the configuration.h for delta radius I find this:Polygonhell wrote:This is the closest thing to a guide on the forum

#define DELTA_RADIUS (PRINTER_RADIUS-END_EFFECTOR_HORIZONTAL_OFFSET-CARRIAGE_HORIZONTAL_OFFSET+0.0)
Do I set the offset to +0.20?

Re: DELTA RADIUS?
I just stuck .5 where it reads +0.0.
Remeasured, if it as worse in the same direction I wend to -0.5
Then I just adjusted the number iteratively, after 3 or 4 guesses it was pretty close.
Be careful not to hit the table when you're making changes
