Bed Tilt/Mesh Clarification
Please help clarify for me.
Once you have done a bed level (I am using my beacon), "A", "B" and "C" are then level. No matter where I home Z on the board, the distance above or below for "A", "B" and "C" relative to "H" should be the same. These 3 points are level according to the probe and auto level.
From this point, I would see if my frame is skewed or bed is warped.
So why when I look at my mesh are "A" and "C" the same height relative to "H" but "B" is always much higher?

Well first of all did you configure beacon properly?
Ie set offset position and z tilit position?
A probe point of Z-tilt and C probe of Z-Tilt should be near 0
Still dont get it... A, B and C should be the same height after taking mesh.
Yes. Probing set to probe at A, B and C.
Probe Offset is correct as far as I can see. As per Documentation. But if if slightly off.... A, B and C should be same height as these are the 3 points probed to level
Yes but where you you check the tilt?
What are your points?
I believe this is what would answer your quesion:
[beacon]
x_offset: 0
y_offset: 17.5
[stepper_x]
position_max: 500
position_min: -5
position_endstop: -5
[stepper_y]
position_max: 500
position_min: -8
position_endstop: -8
[z_tilt]
z_positions:
-5,-5
250,504
505,-5
points:
20,20
250,480
480,20
[bed_mesh]
mesh_min: 20,20
mesh_max:480,480
probe_count: 15,15
mesh_pps: 0, 0
Try to bring it a bit closer , and not on the farthest edge, see what happens. This can also be if your X or Y is skewed, the probe point on the back can give you a "wrong" result.
Happened to me when I had 0.5mm deviation but because the middle of my X gantry in my case was far lower than the other points, meaning when it scanned the back, it was always dipping in the back.
