I could use some help

@fcwilt I will watch it!

@mac said in I could use some help:
@fcwilt could you post a picture or two of the monster you're working on?
I don't think Frederick mentioned anything about him working on a "monster". In case you are getting confused between the two of us, my own "monster" is well documented on my blog and YouTube channel which are linked in my signature.

@deckingman everyone has their monsters.
7 hours, the last 3 of which were “air printing.”

I think I am losing my mind or perhaps hallucinating from lack of sleep.
I thought I read posts from you suggesting Mack's endstops were on the high end of his axes.
The last time I saw them, in one of his videos, they were on the low end.
Or did I imagine the whole thing?

@fcwilt I think they were originally, or at least X was, but now they should be on the low end.

So perhaps I found myself reading near the start of this thread by accident.
That would explain it.
Thanks.

@fcwilt for the current record, the X-endstop is on the far left of the X-axis, the Y-endstop is at the rear of the printer, right in front of the motor, and the Z-endstop is at the bottom of the Z-axis approximately 6 inches below the X-endstop. This is where they have always been. I will include pictures.
These are in order: X, Y, and Z.

@fcwilt no, they’ve always been where they are. We did have a discussion about high and low endstops, which led to setting the X and Y endstops as High in RRF.
I can change that if this visual info suggests all three endstops are in the low position.
I would prefer to do it by editing the config.g Instead of using RRF again.

Hi Mark,
I must have read some out of date information that I thought was NEW information and it just threw me for a bit.
There have been a lot of posts in this thread and I just wanted to verify that I was up to date.
Thanks for confirming that I am not losing my mind (at least not yet).

@fcwilt you're very welcome. I was hoping to see a video link?
On the end-stops, should all of my endstops be low in rrf?
re: coding them low versus using rrf, can you comment?

Hi Mark,
Chores took up most of yesterday, the guests arrive today and I still have two things yet to do.
The endstops are physically fine where they are and the configuration is correct if you have changed the wiring from the NO pin to the NC pin.

@fcwilt cool, enjoy your guests, Amazon is telling me the motors will arrive today.

That is good news.
I hope their installation goes smoothly.

-
@fcwilt installation? You mean I have to install them?????
-
@droftarts as Ian might say, and then he’d send a link to the documentation.
-
@fcwilt but I have read them.

Just thought I’d share this with you:
This is how the board of the Duet3D Mini 5+ is set up:
And this is how the motors I hope to install today are set up:
Talk about harmonious!

Here’s a series a pictures I’d like to share with you. They tell a story. I hope you’ll figure it out.
