@chickenwoman said in Using Input Shaping. Any suggestions or advice??:
@tfjield this is off topic but what wire did you use on your Modix and what length? I have a Big 60 and have tried several different types of wire and cant get it to work.
The first time I tried I used an old, unshielded network cable and it wouldn't recognize the accelerometer. Then I went with a USB cable.
I followed this guide:

I purchased this USB cable from Amazon:

I left the cable at about 5 feet / 1.5 meters. There are two shields inside wrapped around two different pairs, and a shield around the whole thing. I attached all three shields together, and connected it to one of the ground points on the Duet boards. (I have the DueX5, so I used one of the grounds on one of the 5 endstop connectors.)
I use a PT100 daughterboard, and the daughterboard moves CS3 and CS4 from pins 7 and 9 to pins 3 and 1, respectively. So my CS connects to pin 1 and INT connects to pin 3.
EDIT: Here are some pics of my connection. I didn't have a dual inline plug that took crimp connections for the Duet side so I made one with the connectors that I had.
