Pinda did not recognize top right corner

Hi, sorry for bad eng.
I have bought a Prusa i3 mk2 kit 3 month ago and since then i have always print without trouble.
Today i'have start, as usual, my print but during the z calibration the pinda did not recognize the top right corner and the nozzle hit the bed.
I have reboot the printer and tried again but nothing change...
I was on the new firmware 3.0.10 so i think that it might be a bug so i change it to the 3.0.9 but still the same problem...
I run the calibration flow again but the pinda did not recognize the top right corner and hit the bed all the other spot pass the test without any kind of problem...
I'm not so good with troubleshooting so i'm asking here if some one can help me.
Thanks in advice, sorry for bad english
Best Regards,
Cristina.

Re: Pinda did not recognize top right corner

Have the same problem, only my PINDA doesn't see the last calibration point (calibration step 4/4). Behavior of the printer is the same at every point, the PINDA starts quite high, then go to the bed and recognize the point. The calibration of last one looks like the same, I could say that the PINDA find the last point, only the printer give an error and returns to the manual. I didn't change anything in hardware, only upgraded to the newest firmware.

Re: Pinda did not recognize top right corner

Problem resolved! Unofrtunately I don't know if this is not by accident, but I'll write what I did:
- firstly adjust the Z axle - both holders on rods have to be on the same height
- adjust the nozzle and PINDA: my nozzle is at "a businnes card" height from the bed. PINDA is on 2x bussines cards height
- I've tested few firmwares, from 3.0.10 to 3.0.6. The calibration was successfull only at 3.0.6.
- After again upgrade to 3.0.10 calibration was also successfull

I think the firmware is not replacing everything, maybe in 3.0.10 is new calibration software but on older firmware is not, maybe the last calibration upgrade was on the 3.0.6 fw... no idea
