    • RE: Use 5v from diffrent source for optical endstops? on duetwifi

      Problem solved!

      A good tip was that the sensor does not need 5v.
      However, the homex / y / z.g files from e.g. G1 H2 Z5 F6000 must be changed to G1 S2 Z5 F6000 (H to S). Now the motors stop when the sensor is triggered.

      Thx for Help.

      I could not find the original data sheet because the manufacturer (germanreprap.com) has closed its forum.
      But maybe the pictures will help:

      Three resistors are installed on the back of the sensors: 1002, 1800, 2200

    • RE: Use 5v from diffrent source for optical endstops? on duetwifi

      Hi all,

      I also have problems with the optical endstops. The board I have is the Duet2Wifi v1.04 and the endstops are TCST2103 5v optical sensors (https://www.vishay.com/docs/81147/tcst2103.pdf).

      VCC is connected to 5v Powersupply
      GND to GND on the endstop-pin on the Board
      SIG to STP/IN on the endstop-pin on the Board

      The endstops are in the config.g File set to Active-High (M574 X2 Y2 Z2 S1).

      If the sensors are triggered, the endstop LEDs on the board go out. But nothing happens in web control -> it shows all sensors are triggered.
      No i have measured the sensor signals:
      If the sensor is triggered, the output is 4.3v
      If the sensor is not triggered, the output is 1.5v, and not 0v or GND...

      Have I missed something or are my sensors just crap?

      Thanks for Help.
