Klipper reports: ERROR Option 'z_offset' in section 'probe' must be specified

Fill out above information and in all cases attach your klippy.log file (use zip to compress it, if too big). Pasting your printer.cfg is not needed
Be sure to check our “Knowledge Base” Category first. Most relevant items, e.g. error messages, are covered there

Describe your issue:

…I cannot get the SAVE_CONFIG to read the z_offset in the probe section. I run a calibration and save config and it puts and new save config section at bottom of the config but will not read it on next reboot. I can edit the self edit the value but it will not work after the calibration. I have tried linking other config files but sill have issues ? Hours of life I cant get back. Lol…

Hello @cp10gman !

It could be that the SAVE_CONFIG area at the end of the printer.cfg has some issues.

Can you please upload the printer.cfg.

This file contains common pin mappings for the BIGTREETECH SKR mini

E3 v3.0. To use this config, the firmware should be compiled for the

STM32G0B1 with a “8KiB bootloader” and USB communication.

The “make flash” command does not work on the SKR mini E3. Instead,

after running “make”, copy the generated “out/klipper.bin” file to a

file named “firmware.bin” on an SD card and then restart the SKR

mini E3 with that SD card.

See docs/Config_Reference.md for a description of parameters.

Canbus board. To use this config, the firmware should be compiled for the

STM32G0B1 with “8 MHz crystal” and “USB (on PA11/PA12)” or “CAN bus (on PB0/PB1)”.

The “EBB Can” micro-controller will be used to control the components on the nozzle.

My bad on the size of the text. First time asking for help here. I just reinstalled this klipper with KIAUH. I have a BTTPi2 board and used the BTT klipper file to install and then used KIAUH to finish. I had to build the printer.cfg from Mainsail and pasted my old setting SCP into the new empty file. not sure what is causing the SAVE to not work correctly

printer.cfg (20.8 KB)
This was one of the last printer.cfg saves I did. SAVE_CONFIG replaces my z_offset under probe puts it below but upon restart if will not use it unless I manually change it on the .cfg … I’m onto trying new klipper installs and seeing if it will work. I just upgraded to the BTT eddy with no success so i scrapped trying the eddy and went onto the microprobe. Neither is working on saving the z_ offset upon restart.

As I assumed, the SAVE_CONFIG entries are over the place in the config file.

In particular, the pid values and and the input-shaper values.

Did you do that on purpose?

All lines that start with #*# have to be together at the very end of the config file after these lines.

Thank you for getting back with me. I reinstalled klipper wirth (KIAUH) and wit a fresh new pronter.cfg file. I carefully added each section of my old setting from notepad and tested frequently to make sure it worked using small section additions. Along the way I did get some weird times that it would give an offset error upon save/restart. I would then rename the newly saved printer.cfg and start from that last point of my addiotions. Finally all of my pasted settings saved and worked. Also I carefully work in the middle of the blocks keeping the bottom sections together. I’m not sure what breaks the links but this seemed to get my final printer.cfg working reading and saving correctly.
