Tronxy X5SA Pro inductive Z probe

dino1

I have a 24v Tronxy, Can I use my Tronxy X5SA Pro inductive Z probe on my Duet 3 mini? the probe as 3 wires, pos, neg and signal. I was thinking of using it on IO_3. Do i put the signal wire on io3.in and the Neg on GND. Where to I put the POS wire? Or am I totally guessing wrong

This is my first time using Duet stuff, I read alot, but its a bit short on Tronxy X5SA Pro inductive Z probes and how to wire them in.

Thanks
Dave

@dino1 It depends what type it is NPN or PNP.
Then you have to check the Voltage of the sensor. Usualy they are 6 to 24 volts.
So for NPN you wire GND and Signal to Duet's probe conector and VIN to 24 Volt on duet.
For PNP you add some resistors as per wiki
