(no image — see text)

Parts: none.

Do: Uncomment the 350 line only. Z max is 330, not 350: the gantry cannot reach the last 20 mm.

check Check

position_max: 330 is live; position_endstop: -0.5 is untouched, the placeholder Z_ENDSTOP_CALIBRATE overwrites in Ch 13 via SAVE_CONFIG.

What you're looking at

position_max is how high the gantry may be driven. It is 330 rather than 350 because the gantry runs out of frame before it runs out of nominal build volume. position_endstop here is a placeholder: Ch 13 measures the real value and SAVE_CONFIG writes it.
