@mobietec said in noob help dule z setup:
M950 S0 C"io4.out" ; create servo pin 0 for BLTouch
M558 P9 C"io4.in" H5 F120 T6000 ; set Z probe type to bltouch and the dive height + speedsIf you are connected to io3.... and your config is using io4....

@phaedrux i changed it just in case that was a problem port made no diffreance im pulling my hair out i have tested both bl in a marlin boards and work as they should just will not work in here
i have also reflashed board to 3.2 no luck i was on 3.3 so im going to put that back on
-
Ok, so your config is using io3 now as well?
when you tested on the marlin boards did you use the same cable harness?
Can you show a photo of your BLtouch connection at the duet board io3 connection?
-
@phaedrux yes same harness i have to change pins over so 5v n sig were correct

links to photos i hope

@mobietec Yellow pin crimp looks like it's up, not in the crimp shell properly. May not be making contact. Better to use the supplied Duet crimps and housings, rather than
MolexDupont connectors.Ian

@droftarts i can promice you its making good contection the dupont socket is just temp and i did push it down fully after pic and check it still not working i do have another bl with duet socket still same problem
-
@mobietec Sorry, should have remembered this before; see https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Connecting_a_Z_probe#Section_Duet_Num_3
Connect the BLTouch to IO_7 ... It's also possible to use IO_4 or IO_5 instead of IO_7.
(Edit: I've updated the text on the wiki to make it clearer.)
You can't use IO_3!
Only IO_4, IO_5 and IO_7 are PWM capable, so able to control a servo (like the BLTouch). See table here for IO pin capability: https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Duet_3_Mainboard_6HC_Hardware_Overview#Section_IO.
Use one of IO_4, IO_5 or IO_7 instead. So, with the BLTouch connected to IO_4, your config.g should be (which is what you had earlier):; Z-Probe M950 S0 C"io4.out" ; create servo pin 0 for BLTouch M558 P9 C"io4.in" H5 F120 T6000 ; set Z probe type to bltouch and the dive height + speeds
Also, this line is incorrect, and may be interfering:
M574 Z2 S2 C"io4.in" ; configure Z-probe endstop for low end on Z
Are you wanting to use the endstop on the high end (as in where Z value is 'high', with the bed furthest from nozzle, so bed at the bottom of travel)? That's what 'Z2' means. Though 'S2' means probe not endstop, and the 'C' parameter is wrong (should be P). To set it up correctly, see https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Gcode#Section_M574_RepRapFirmware_Num_3. For now, change it to:
M574 Z0 ; No Z endstop
Make these changes, test and post your config.g.

yipeee got the bl working
now got to work on bedsize and bed mesh because it probs outside
of bed aeira -

Oof! that was on the tip of my brain yesterday.

@phaedrux yep duet well my board only bl on duet 3 io7 will not work on any others strange
i can now prob bed do a mesh level etcnow for next problem
need to figer out how to dule z level
-
@mobietec Thank you every one who is trying to help me

@droftarts thank you i was thnking do i need to probe more than once im ow using a gen bltouch or is just 1 prob enoth many thanks
-
@mobietec generally you home all axes, which probes be centre, then probe as near as you can to each leadscrew, one probe per leadscrew.

@droftarts thank you ian so once is enoth i know when i did it in marlin it did it a few times till it was spot on
new error message now regarding mesh error invlaid higt map
my bed is 330 x 330i have set center to 0
M557 X-135:135 Y-135:135 P5 is what i have at present
-
@mobietec fixed that updated the web and that fixed that problem many thanks
