Orbitool Accelorometer vs Beacon Accelorometer
I was struggling big time with resonance graphs generated with Orbitool O2 on my newly upgraded toolhead (I also upgraded from EBB42 to Orbitool O2).
The graphs looked horrible for the y-axis and suggested 2900 as max acceleration - see attached images. After changing to use beacon as accelorometer the suggested max acceleration went up to 55300, and the graph looked super clean.
Now can anyone tell me if that is a reliable result? I am not setting accelerations to that value, since the lowest was the x axis with 12400. But the difference in resonance is night and day. Super noisy vs. super clean.

Check to make sure the toolboard is tight and the mount for the toolboard. The EBB42 has proven to be better than the Beacon because of better location.
The toolboard and mount are not moving at all. They are super tight. Compared to the Eva toolhead and EBB42 the new toolhead, mount and board feels so much more rigid and yet I get these poor measurements on the y-axis. They are so much worse than with the old toolhead and EBB42, I really don’t get it. I have made sure that everything is as it should be, wires tied down, screws are fixed etc and still there is this major dicrepancy between the measurement with the O2 and Beacon.
Is the umbilical rubbing or hitting the top or sides?
No not when the toolhead is at the center and it is doing its thing. It is so odd because it was super clean when I used the EBB42, and it is so much more rigid now with the new toolhead. I think I will just leave it as it and use the beacon for now.
