Sorry, forgot to send my homeall.g and Homez.g files but reversing the probe wires worked! I would have never guessed that. Thank you so much!

Testing it per the dynamic test described in the linked article, it failed to stop the Z axis when triggered.

As for the wiring I mainly followed this walk-through: https://betrue3d.dk/bltouch-on-duet-wifi-duetreprapfirmware/

Unrelated, but you'll get more accurate probe results out of it if you slow down your probing speed to F100 or so. If this makes homing unbearable slow you can modify the homing macro to probe once quickly to get the probe to the bed fast, and then probe again at a slower rate for accuracy.

Good advice, I'll probably end up doing a fast probe followed by a slower one as advised.. just haven't got that far yet

Hey all,

I just made the transition from Marlin finally and its been pretty easy going besides this one last issue which has been driving me absolutely crazy trying to figure out...

On power on, the BLTouch does its self test just like in Marlin.
The light on the probe goes off with the pin being down and when the pin is pushed in, it retracts and the light comes on as expected.

M401 & M402 respond as intended. I have macros created to test the probes functionality and all of those also respond as intended.

When I try to home Z, when the probe is triggered it retracts but it does not stop the axis from moving down. Instead it just deploys the pin again.

I have reviewed this: https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/BLTouch_Troubleshooting
I do have the BLTouch classsic and have not added the resistor but it doesn't sound like that is not the issue?

My issue must be in my config, right?? I have it hooked up to heater 7 as seen below:
