Thanks to everyone here the printer is printing... I am waiting on terminals to finish the CR Touch install and I'm pretty much ready to play with it.

@jrcl Does VIN stand for Voltage In, then?

@jrcl Again, thanks. It has finished the auto-tune and gave me this message:

Auto tuning heater 0 completed after 3 idle and 5 tuning cycles in 998 seconds. This heater needs the following M307 command:
M307 H0 R0.532 K0.167:0.000 D13.56 E1.35 S1.00 B0
Edit the M307 H0 command in config.g to match this. Omit the V parameter if the heater is not powered from VIN.

I didn't see a "V" parameter in that line of code and am not sure what VIN means in this context, in any event. I easily found the line of code in my config.g and have replaced it.

@jrcl Thanks... I think I missed a "u" argument which would have used the result, so I might have to rerun it or go your route.

Sry, this was too easy and I gave up before I needed to. I found this code and am running it now...

m303 h0 s100

Perhaps this is a "PID Tune" issue, and if so, how do I do that?

Whenever I start my bed heater I get Error: Heater 0 fault: temperature rising too slowly: expected 2.30°C/sec measured 0.57°C/sec

How do I change this value? Do I need to change the heater?

This is a 120V bed heater running through a solid-state drive. It is giving 120V to the heater.

@stephen6309 & @fcwilt thanks to both of you... that really helps a lot. My mod wire needs to be connected to exp HEATER3. "exp" means expansion header. Cool. Simple enough to do.

Now, how do I define HEATER3 as the real "Mod"? Do I have to edit config.g and add it somewhere?

@fcwilt and @Stephen6309 It's a big doc with lots of illustrations. Can you be more specific with the pic you want me to see? Maybe post it here? I'm just a noobie and a bit overwhelmed. but I'm really trying.

The documentation says "9 BLTouch OUT (Duet 3) and MOD (Duet 2 Maestro) can be configured to control deployment/retraction. MOD on Duet 2 WiFi/Ethernet is not PWM capable, so use heater pin on expansion port instead." I have a Duet 2 WiFi, so please translate.

@fcwilt Thanks for the quick reply...

This is the photo of the CR Touch going into a Crealty board... it's the only pinout of the wires I could find for it. The only difference is that it says "out" instead of "mod". Other than that, I think I have wired it just as a BL Touch. Do you have a specific wire you think is wrong, or was that just a general comment?

Someone has mentioned that the CR Touch is a clone of the BL Touch. That assumption could be the real problem.

Wires coming out of the CR Touch

Wire extensions soldered on

Connected to the board.

All connections ohmed out fine with no shorts.

I'm installing a CR Touch on a Tevo Tornado and am getting this error: G32 Error: Probe already triggered before probing move started.

I have it wired like this...

@dc42 Thanks! I am currently getting this error:

G32 Error: Probe already triggered before probing move started

I'm not even sure I have it wired correctly, but I think I do. I'll check out that link in a bit and see if I can suss it out from there.

@fcwilt I'm having an issue with search on this forum. I'm trying to find how to set up the Crealty CR Touch and not coming up with much.

@fcwilt Thanks for the input. I tried copying code on my phone yesterday and the forum gave me an error. A friend suggested that I run m119 in the console and it showed the z stop as being off. I looked over the wiring this morning to discover that the z probe cable was plugged into the wrong spot on the Duet. Problem solved.

I am trying to suss out my Crealty CR Touch, but I'll start another thread on it when I'm ready for input.

X and y home fine. When I home z, Z0 does fine, while Z1 keeps clicking and bouncing.

How do you look up your max motor speed? .

@alankilian Z should be closer to 6000, then?
