YeagerBomb VAOC issues
@YeagerBomb
Starting it here so we can keep track, since your messages seem to be getting lost
again going to ask: i am following the IDEX commissioning guide. I have done everything up to __vaoc_reset. When i go to VAOC and hit start calibration it drives my print heads to the fron of the machine NOT the rear. I can not move the print head with out error and the VAOC calibration only allows me to change Z height. What am i missing. How do i set the camera location?!!!
Could you please, firmware reset your printer, take a video and record what happens on your printer when you press the home button on the RatOs dash?
I want to see if it is homing in the correct direction

Updating firmware to the most recent firmware fixed the idex VAOC homing issue and it now goes over the camera correctly.
If you have this issue you must update from the June or July rat os image to the most recent release and rat configurator.

The commissioning guide should also add that you may need to add a new minimum z position to like -10 or more to actually hit your z switch on the vaoc.

Nice work figuring it out!
I will add for posterity.
Z min position “position_min:-20” worked for my z calibration on the vaoc #------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ [stepper_z] dir_pin: !z0_dir_pin # Remove ! in front of pin name to reverse the direction of stepper_z rotation_distance: 4 # 4 for TR8*4 lead screws homing_speed: 10 position_min: -20 position_max: 500
