This stuff will help a lot:
Costs next to nothing but will save you all the headaches especially when layer fans turn on.
I'd advise it on a volcano style block.

The Folger Tech FT-5 has 2z , 2y, 1x. So if I just use the Duetwifi with out the Duex2/5 I will have to connect the Y steppers in series. Can I series the Y steppers without causing problems or should I add the Duex2/5?
Can the E1 be mapped to run second y steppers?
My config above is for a FT5 Z is on the Z port (both connectors).
Heres what I use
M584 X0 Y1:4 Z2 E3 ; Map to specific drives
M569 P0 S0 ; Drive 0 - X
M569 P1 S0 ; Drive 1 - Y
M569 P2 S1 ; Drive 2 - Z
M569 P3 S0 ; Drive 3 - E0
M569 P4 S1 ; Drive 4 - Y
Pics are broken again? Use postimage.org
Is U showing as in unhomed?
If you do G92 U0 and then try to mesh level does it work?
Here's what i use for reference:
M143 H0 S110 ; Set maximum temperature for bed to 110C
M143 H1 S285 ; Set maximum temperature for hotend to 285C
My fault I was thinking of a different kind of setup!
That wiring is correct.
My bltouch is working perfect and i tried a extreme bed compensation with 1.5 mm high on one side and 1.5 mm low on other side and i got a Perfect first layerBUT is there a code or something so you can "fade" out the compensation. that compensation makes the Z move around and can make ugly prints.
I had that on marlin with my mks board. 3mm was the compensation Then it dont compensate anymore and the print is level.
I have not tried that gcode that fades out in Marlin on my Duet. And i am not on my computer now so i cant see what that gcode is.
Sure is M376 http://reprap.org/wiki/G-code#M376:_Set_bed_compensation_taper
Perhaps the ground should be connected to pin 2 of the expansion connector? I don't have a BLtouch, so perhaps someone else can confirm this.
Correct.
