Thank you for the tip!!! Will do this in the future to try and solve it myself.
I started from the BLV-Cube pre configured files.
For some reason the x & y endstop work without the suggested modification.
(will modify and test this anyway)
Also thank you for pointing out to the heater & fan setting.
Those are the next things I need to find out if it works as intended.
In regard to my previous post:
I did an extra test & disconnected the blue wire (signal In / Out)
With only Vcc & GND connected the mini IR Probe LED blinks 4 times.
My conclusion from this test is that the board does not correctly initialise the Probe.
Is this a correct conclusion?
Could this be because of the enstop configuration ("M574")?
I have a Duet Maestro mainboard with the latest firmware: 3.0RC1 (2019-12-16b8)
Ref: https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Gcode#Section_M574_Set_endstop_configuration
M574 - RepRapFirmware 3 Parameters
Xnnn Position of X endstop: 0 = none, 1 = low end, 2 = high end.
Ynnn Position of Y endstop: 0 = none, 1 = low end, 2 = high end.
Znnn Position of Z endstop: 0 = none, 1 = low end, 2 = high end.
P"pin_name" Defines the pin name(s) that the endstop(s) for the specified axis are connected to. Needed when S=1.
Snnn 1 = switch-type (eg microswitch) endstop input, 2 = Z probe (when used to home an axis other than Z), 3 = single motor load detection, 4 = multiple motor load detection (see Notes).
==> What to do if you want to use a Z probe for the Z-Axis
Example:
M574 Z1 S1 P"zstop" ; Z min active high endstop switch
==> no need to refer to the pin_name for the Z Probe_In?
I would greatly appreciate if someone could help me with initialising the mini IR Probe in the config.g file for the Maestro board (firmware 3.0RC1)
I am having difficulties installing the Mini IR Probe with the Duet Maestro mainboard.
When powered on the LED Blinks Twice & not 4 times.
This means the device is not in analoge mode.
When I put an object near the sensor the LED indicator goes on.
Inside the Web Control I alway have a reading of 1000 (also when sensor is not connected)
In config.g i have the following parameters set up:
; Endstops
M574 X1 Y2 S1 ; Set active high end stops & Y endstop is at high(max) position.
M574 Z1 S2 ; Set endstops controlled by probe
; Z-Probe
M558 P1 H5 F200 T9000 I0 R0.5 ; Set Z probe type mini ir sensor
G31 P500 X-2 Y-16.4 Z1.043 ; Set Z probe trigger value, offset and trigger height
M557 X30:270 Y30:270 S80 ; Define mesh grid
How can I solve this problem?
Are there things that i can measure / test to find the reason the sensor starts in digital mode instead of analogue mode?
When I measure the voltage output of Z_probe In on the mainboard I get ~3V.
Is this normal? I immediately get this reading when powered from USB. (did not check with PS ON)
