@dc42 said in Reading values from digital Vacuum Pressure sensors:

@developeralgo222 I suggest you remove the leading ! from the analog pin names in your M308 commands, and add B and C parameters to those commands to define the reading range.

You only need to use voltage dividers if you want to take readings when the sensor output exceeds 3.3V. If you don't then you will likely get the same reading as an input of about 3.3V would. A voltage divider is just 2 resistors so you can make one yourself, e.g. 2K from the input pin to ground and 1K from the input pin to the sensor output.

Hi dc42

I am now trying to get my vacuum sensors to work, 5V sensors driven from 6XD and I get Vswing from ~5V to 0v on sensors but connecting Vdivider as suggestes I get nothing.

What can be wrong?

@droftarts
Thanks Ian

/Bengt

On 6xd is 5v present on IO_8?

G92 obviously

Error: Failed to home axes ZACD

So on my Pick'n'Place I just want to home X/Y and ZACD set as homed, how to do this?

Are homez -a-c-d . needed if so what content.

@droftarts

OK thanks for your reply

@droftarts
Thanks, is there a way to show the graph in Panel Due?

Where can I see these values in web interface?

Rest in peace Ian

@droftarts

Thanks for the information Ian, will try to hook it up and see what it does.

Commercial = NO I'm 74years old fart playing around with some toys.

@droftarts
The board was working OK with original controller.
The RX/TX signals are 5V on this board, I have bi-dir levelconverter.

Is this the correct way to setup a second com port?

Here pics of vacuum sensors = no labels

This is what I have found

Similar to the Endstop Plugin would be nice

@droftarts said in 6XD I/O >> Issue solved:

Anyway, another problem resolved without recourse to a warranty replacement (which would have exhibited the same problem)!

I am happy as well.

Is there a way to visualise input high/low on 6XD io_1 to io_8?

@droftarts

As 6-8 works with V_OUTLC2 I tried to same setting for 3-5 and now it works.

Cheers
Bengt

@dc42 @droftarts

Possible to concentrate on VACUUM sensors?

@tecno

Does this anything with V_OUTLC1 and V_OUTLC2 to do?

YES IT DOES !!

@droftarts

Not a breakout board.

@droftarts

3 4 5 behave the same. Does this anything with V_OUTLC1 and V_OUTLC2 to do?
