Hi all, new to DLP but machine is coming along. I'm having trouble with z movements, raspberry pi 2, ramps board, muve3d marlin, nanodlp 1322. I'm able to move the z axis through the terminal window and calibration screen so I don't believe it to be a hardware gremlin rather it seems that no z movements are being generated during the plate process. I did come across some log file info that looks interesting:
2016/12/31 17:17:34.280621 {"Layer":"4","module":"Image","level":"Warning","msg":"Display layer public/plates/1/4.png"}

The setup page seems correct and I'm using a stepper for the shutter which is functioning for each layer using gcode before / after layers G1 X18
Thanks in advance, jw

1. You should have notice about movements (gcode transfers) which are missing. Are you sure you have correct before and after layer gcodes on your profile?
2. Make sure you are using correct positioning type (absolute/relative)
3. If still does not work, share your debug file. (setup page/tools tab/debug button)

Hi Shahin, thank you for the Holiday support. Embarrassed to say it was the gcode for each layer was missing in the profiles section. All is working well now.
Thanks again and Happy New Year!!, jw
