error message at Probing

[Peterkepompier]

Whenever I probe a new tool I get an error "motion exceed cnc"
how do i solve that?

[mstrens]

GRBL wiki says "G-code motion target exceeds machine travel. Machine position safely retained. Alarm may be unlocked"

So the distance you put in your probe command is probably to big.

I don't know what I'm doing wrong, I'm using the normal workflow;
setup -> home
Setup -> tool -> set change
Setup ---> tool -> set probe

and if i want to create something the workflow is

setup -> home
setup-> tool-> set xyz
setup -> tool-> z probe
Setup-> tool -> calibration

when changing tool I go
setup-> tool-> set change
setup-> tool -> probe
and then I get that error message

If you want to create something the workflow is

setup -> home
move the XYZ axis to the origin of the workpiece
setup-> tool-> set xyz
Setup-> tool -> calibration (this should perform automatically a probe over your fixed probe).

when changing tool you go
setup-> tool-> change (and not set change)
setup-> tool -> probe

Are you using a standard RS-CNC32 (with a Z travel of about 80mm)?
and then I get that error message

the latest version, with this in config.h
#define _GO_PROBE_STRING "G4P0.0 \ n $ # \ n $ G \ n M5 \ n G4P0.5 \ n G53 G21 G90 G00 Z-2 \ n G53 G21 G90 G00 X% XY% Y \ n G30 \ n G21 G91 \ n G38.2 Z-70 F100 \ n G00 Z2 \ n G38.2 Z-3 F10 \ n G10 L20 P1 Z% Z \ n G53 G21 G90 G00 Z-2 \ n% M \ n "

and my workflow is not correct then i will give yours a try

[Peterkepompier]

a question, get that it doesn't work yet, is it possible to make it with buttons like cmd1_sp-on?

[mstrens]

you can try but I am not sure it will work.
There are some special instructions in the line (begining with % like % XY% Y).
I do not remember if those special instruction are handled in buttons like cmd1...

Please note that the line of code that you put seems me wrong. There should be no space after %

Here the line from github web site
#define _GO_PROBE_STRING "G4P0.0\n $#\n $G\n M5\n G4P0.5\n G53 G21 G90 G00 Z-2\n G53 G21 G90 G00 X%X Y%Y\n G30\n G21 G91\n G38.2 Z-70 F100\n G00 Z2\n G38.2 Z-3 F10\n G10 L20 P1 Z%Z\n G53 G21 G90 G00 Z-2\n %M\n"

ok thanks i'm going to try it
let you know if it succeeded

[Peterkepompier]

no it doesn't work, get the error message "A2 motion exceed cnc" also during calibration.
and the gcode was not wrong, there is no space in it
what now???

[mstrens]

During calibration, it performs a probe with G38.2 Z-70
So, it moves Z down on max 70mm.
Could it be that it does not reach the probe within the 70mm?
