Only one endstop shows "yes" when triggered

Phaedrux

@jsinicro It's best not to mix and match DWC and firmware versions since they usually depend on each others features.

If DWC 3.2.2 wasn't able to install from uploading it then it would be a good idea to pull the SD card and use your PC to replace the contents of the /www folder with the contents of the DWC zip file.

@phaedrux Hi,
I found the problem, one of the switches at the switch end I had the signal and positive wires swapped when I connected them correctly it now works as it should. I am using the M119 command to get the status and when I trigger them they report at max stop or at min stop. The z probe does activate when I hit the end stop, no for the next part see if I can home the axis.

On another note the instructions to zip up the plug in requires to have the npm java command installed is there anyway to get the plugin already zipped up and ready to install?
thx,

Phaedrux

I think that plugin may be part of the final 3.3 release which shouldn't be too far off.

@phaedrux OK, now on to getting the BLtouches to work. I think they are configured correctly. I can issue the command to extract and retract the plastic pin but when I touch it to see if I get a 1000 redout on the web interface zprobe column it always says 0.

; Z-Probe
M558 P9 C"^1.io4.in" H5 F120 T6000 ; disable Z probe but set dive height, probe speed and travel speed
M950 S0 C"1.io4.out"
M558 P9 C"^3.io4.in" H5 F120 T6000 ; disable Z probe but set dive height, probe speed and travel speed
M950 S1 C"3.io4.out"

G31 X47 Y0 Z2.3 P25

I can retract both of them individually just by using P0, and P1 for the other one:
M280 P0 S10 and S90 to retract

but on web control I only see one zprobe and it always says 0 touching the sensor doesn't change the value.

@jsinicro Hi, Just wanted to say I got the Bltouches to work G30 command actually works. The only issue now is that the probe is lower than the nozzle, so I cannot lower the nozzle and touch the bed before the probe will hit it first so I'll need to move that up a little. I am still waiting for the bed heater to arrive, the next thing is to test the extruder heater and motor. Almost there. I posted pictures under the hardware wiring topic
thankyou.

@jsinicro said in Only one endstop shows "yes" when triggered:

That's normal. The Bltouch only triggers for a split second before resetting again, so it's not easy to catch on the web display.

@phaedrux after resetting

@jsinicro OK not sure what is going on now, the endstops stopped working and the X Driver 0 no longer mnoves the one motor only the other motor works on expansion board 2

jsinicro

@jsinicro OK, I switched to motor to expansion board 2 and it works, what does this mean? Still cant get the endstops to work M119 returns nothing "not stopped" for all even if they were triggered this worked the other day.

@jsinicro also noticed the V12 shows 6V before it showed 12V

@jsinicro OK, I got the endstops working again, I just forgot I needed to constantly hold them down to see results.
