Argh that I was not aware of been a while lol

Yup... Strong magnets will do that. Wait till you troubleshoot a BL touch and it turns out the problems were due to magnets affecting the sensor. That was a painful lesson for me. Unfortunately, I can't just flip the rods. All my magnets are orientated same direction when I put the rods together to make sure they were all consistent.

@dc42 Loud assenting vote here for this feature, er (+1)

Oh so I'm currently running my 12v fan at 24v? I have no buck converters connected and am using a 24v psu. Guess I'll do the first method since I do have a buck.

@Hergonoway I wasn't able to find your file on thingiverse, mind linking it?

Ok thank you 🙂 I guess that is just a little confusing from looking at the wiring diagram, but I guess it just depends on how you interpret that they are paired. 0_1532564513167_D79A2D5B-B444-432D-AD78-4D26F53AC875.png

@dc42 said in MagBall ends:

Yes, assuming you meant 3/8.

Yeah 8/3'' would be kind of comical 🙂 . Thanks for the info.

@monster-delta said in smart effector not working:

The green light does flash randomly without any kind of pattern to it

If it flashes randomly with no heaters or fans turned on, and you haven't increased the sensitivity, that suggests a hardware fault - possibly in the effector, but more likely a bad crimp connection in the +3.3V or ground wire between the 8-pin connector and the Duet.

We use the 6-pin Microfit 3.0 connector on the Smart Effector to connect the heater and fan wires. They are good, however once you have inserted the pins into the shell, they are impossible to remove without a special (and expensive) tool.

Due to the risk of miswiring, we put the low voltage connections for the nozzle contact probe and the temperature sensor on a separate connector.

@chipsa82 said in Zesty Nimble with Smart Effector mount:

@CaLviNx great to hear that, do you have a pic of your setup? thanks 😉

erm no not on me so to speak, because im on rotation at work in Saudi and the printer is at home for the next 5 weeks until i am back home again sorry.

It is just to route the cable, having a handle for M16 nut and anti backlash clip.

I am on vacation, but if you remind me a few days from now then I'll try to reproduce it.

I think that was part of it.

This is the new config that works. The facebook group helped me figure out. It is working pretty well finally. Now I just have the get the prints looking a little better with the 0.8 nozzle.

@dc42 perfect! That’s what I couldn’t find. I was looking for pause not weight which is why I couldn’t find it.

Thanks for the help!!!
