RRF2 to RRF3 BL Touch problem
-
I haven't used my printer for about 6 months and am now getting back into it. (amazing how much I have forgotten about the workings of the Duet in that time!)
Anyway my current working configuration is 2.0.5.
I got another sd card and copied my good v2 configuration onto it. I then proceeded to upgrade to first 3.0 and then 3.1.3. After comparing my v2 config with v3 config I strted it up. X and Y home fine. However the pin on my BL Touch will not deploy. When I turn the machine on it does do the self test of going up and down twice and then retracts and the light comes on. I am pretty sure I copied what others have used for the BL but something has to be incorrect. Here is my info.
By the way I have tried both C"^zprobe.in" and C"zprobe.in"Config.g

M280 P3 S90 I1P3 needs to be P0
In RRF3 we use the M950 command to create the servo control pin. You have
M950 S0 C"exp.heater3" ; create servo pin 0 for BLTouchThe S0 means servo number 0. The M280 command for deploy and retract needs to target that servo number. -
@GeorgeM IMHO the filename for deploying is deployprobe.g, not deploy.g.

Thank you so much. That worked. And your explanation was very helpful.
