hi, I am using Marlin from the github repo. no modifications.
after homing, when bed leveling ,
the printer moves to height 100 and then stops and I get "err: zprobe"

should I try to migrate to marlin 2?
I see a config file from Robert Gusek but there is only one file, and he says there should be 2 files?

thanks very much @Panayiotis Savva!
There is a menu for calibrating the z height, and mixing extruder - I assume this is for setting ratio between the big and smaller exruders (didn't think about it but I guess it is a must)
when trying to do bed leveling it does the 3 points but all in the points are same place.. maybe you find that the bed leveling is not important for clay printing so you didn't configure it?

In your slicer, set your nozzle diameter to the actual orfice size of the nozzle.
Set filament diameter to 50mm (diameter of the RAM Extruder)

I'm not using bed levelling as the delta calibration pretty much solves any heights variations via the manual probing. See G33 Delta Auto Calibration.
