Z-Tilt issues (most likely awd causing this)
Ok so I finally got around to building my 3.1 (enclosed 400x400)
I have a beacon probe and an AWD kit.
After almost ripping out every hair on my head I finally got the AWD part and everything else working.
But now im stuck on z-tilt and cant find anything on here or online.
Issue:
Z-Tilt crashes into the wall and also moves at super duper speeds. I found a post from @Helge Keck where they stated that switching x and y steppers will cause z-tilt to misbehave. Does anyone have an idea on how to fix this. I really dont want to get rid of my awd kit 😦
Also sorry for posting printer.cfg as a txt file. Still learning to navigate MacOS. Also ignore all my comments in the cfg, even I dont understand them.. 🙂
Edit1 after comments: Ok i figured out I can edit this so I dont have to comment and bump it up. I found out something interesting.
I noticed I have to reverse only one Z stepper wich makes no sense but it actually does. It is run by a 2209. Could my 5160s cause issues with Z tilt due to all steppers being reversed?

lowered acceleration and z tilt speed and now it seems to work fine, just a little off so i need to figure that out (too far to the left on bed meshing and too far to the right on z tilt

Motors are connected like this:
Front left (XY-upper belt) driver 6
Front right (XY-lower belt) driver 2
Rear right (XY-lower belt) driver 0
Rear left (XY-upper belt) driver 4
Z rear - driver 3
Z right - driver 7
Z left - driver 1
Extruder - ebb42
(Driver numbers in octopus pro pinout, not my cfg)
Just want to post more info again! Im using this for awd.

I have a feeling I have some of the motors or steppers connected wrong. I have both left motors (rear and front) connected to either Y or X axis (upper belt) and both on the right to lower belt.
All edits in the code is in my printer cfg. 99% of it is in the bottom of the cfg. Nothing in the actual ratos files.
Im super sorry if im breaking any rules by commenting on my post. I tried to find all the rules and read them so I dont accidentally break them.
