Autoleveller

This is a good question, and it gives me a good opportunity to present the current state of affairs with Autoleveller... This might come as a disappointment to you, but currently, I am not working on Autoleveller and haven't been for many years. The program is still available for download as you kno...

At a command prompt, I typed "java -version" and got this... C:\Users\daede>java -version java version "17.0.7" 2023-04-18 LTS Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 17.0.7+8-LTS-224) Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 17.0.7+8-LTS-224, mixed mode, sharing) I'm using Win11 too, and AE works OK...

Thanks for letting us know. I guess Java 17 is not 100% backward compatible then. Java naming conventions are a bit confusing, but to attempt to make things a bit clearer, Java 1.8 equates to Java 8 as Java 1.4 equates to Java 4 etc. JRE is Java Runtime Environment which is what you will need instal...

Hi KenH, You are correct that Java 8 was the latest version way back then. Java should be completely backwards compatible though, so you should be able to run anything using Java 8 no matter which later version you use, Oracle Java 14 should be fine. However, I cant be 100% sure as I dont have easy ...

Hi, any number preceded by a '#' symbol is a variable in gcode so: #5000=#5422 copies the contents of #5422 to #5000. If you see this, it could be something that Autoleveller inserted (to do some calculations) or it could be something copied from your original gcode file. If autoleveller inserted it...

Excellent. And thanks for posting the solution. That will help others too.

Ah yes, I forgot about the spot drilling option. Its been a while since I used eagle to be honest. Heres another option then, you could insert a quick G0 line immediatly after G82 lines. i.e. G00 Z1.0000 G82 X33.0200 Y78.7400 Z-0.2540 F144.00 R1.0000 P1.000000 G00 Z1.0000 G00 X33.0200 Y7.6200 G01 Z-...

Hi yes I think I can see the cause of the problem. Autoleveller does its levelling business on any line that it thinks Z is negative. On the G82 line it drills down to a negative value but actually will pop back up to a positive value at the end, but this line doesnt explicitly state this. Therefore...

Should be up and running now.

Yep, still not working.
The staff at my web host are not as active due to COVID I guess, so i'm not sure how long it will take to fix. I'll let you know here when its resolved.
