      Reading about E3D's new PZ Probe https://e3d-online.com/products/pz-probe

      I wonder if it would be possible to connect to Duet3D's Toolboard. The wireing instructions states that it should be connected to the PanelDue port.

      Also, the stand-alone version of PZ Probe should/can it be connected between the hotend heatsink and toolhead. Looking at the Voron version, it seems to be "inside" the heatsink somehow.

        @fotomas I think the UART connection is just for tuning, and can be disconnected once this is done. For actually triggering, the output is via the endstop connector, so can be connected to a toolboard.

        It's interesting, for sure. It uses a digital amplifier, rather than an analog amplifier that other piezo implementations use. The standalone version is for other places you would normally use a piezo; behind the extruder mount, under the bed etc. You don't want to squash them too much!
