Mounted 3Dtouch (BLtouch) but stop print after auto leveling

Post by MrBorg » Sat Jun 01, 2019 2:43 am

I have now done the following and the printer proceed following action :
- mounted the 3Dtouch
- updated printer firmware
- change Z-axis offset to -2.38 and checked the Z-axis after auto home and move Z-axis to 0.00 with paper
- added G-code G29 to start section in Cure 4.0 printer setting (getting a notification regarding "make sure the G-code is suitable for your printer...")
- Sliced drawing to SD card
- Start printing of drawing form SD
- Printer heats up bed and extruder (60/200)
- Auto leveling starts (display shows Z-axis -9.99 at each check)
- Extruder goes to Auto home and the printer starts to cool down again (NO PRINTING)

What am I missing? Is it the BLtouch that is to close to the bed or what? Any idea is welcome..

SOLVED by myself.

Be aware of adding "spaces" after the G-code G29 and Semicolon "G29 ;" then Cura 4.0 will complain
