    ABL command ignored

    I notice that sometimes, my start up code for ABL gets ignored, printer starts out with homing and then starts printing.
    Not sure why.. i end up manually sending down a ABL code and it begins.. and then i send down my print job after

    using startup code in Simplify3D

    I copied beerdart gcodes and it worked like it did. But then it just decides when ever it wants to stop. Here a video showing what is does. It just does a G28 and forgets about G29. Also when the power kicks in the power supply the servo twitches i wasn't getting that before.

    Uploading another video were autobed leveling is working. It works when ever it wants to work. Marlin 1.0.2

    Servo did not twitched Since the first video and the second video. But sometime i did notice when it does the autobed leveling it retract way more than what i have in the configuration file and makes my LCD flicker.
    Other video Autobed leveling working. moments after finishing the last video recording. And not changing anything in setting. Or changing anything at all.

    Sounds like your servo is drawing too much power when it tries to retract too far, causing RAMPS to brown out. Make sure your angles are set properly so the servo doesn't have to strain.
