Figured it out, 3.3 release notes listed this:

All extruders must be declared explicitly using M584. In previous firmware versions, one default extruder was assign to driver 3.

Once I input M584 E3 in my config.g, it now listed both heaters and my extruder... off to a test print

@tsitalon1 said in Firmware 3.2.2 - Support input shaping without accelerometer?:

I've read the move from 3.2 to higher can be a bit tricky.

Not really. Nothing has changed in the config syntax. The only change that might get you is the creation of the new firmware folder on the SD card, but if you upload the complete zip file for 3.3 it should take care of it all. Then updating to the 3.4 beta2 is just a matter of uploading the firmware bin file for your board.

I won't pretend that I made this change the "right way", but changing the M308 line to the below resulted in my displayed hotend temp to match the Type-K probe I inserted into the heater block

M308 S1 P"e0_temp" Y"thermistor" T100000 B4815 C7.06e-8 R4700

yes, I am using a E3d themistor, not sure why i needed to make this change, but I have verified printing looks normal now.

@tsitalon1 said in Just curious - Nova hotend with 100w heater:

So I take it no one here has put hands on this unit and can provide any feedback?

From the looks, I'd be afraid to brake or bend the heatbrake.
I like the Mosquito better, because of the 4 posts at the corners. (no hands on experience on any)

It will restore the original absolute/relative mode when the macro finishes. But good practice to restore axis motion to absolute anyway.

If it's a heavy bed there might not be enough juice left in the PSU to move the motor. You might be able to add some capacitors to boost the residual capacity slightly.

This thread might have the info you'd need to know.

@phaedrux Roger that.

Thank you for your help, is working great!

Thank you!

Homing is working in all axis' now, finalized probe section looks like this:

; Z-Probe
M574 Z1 S2 ; Set endstops controlled by probe
M558 P9 C"^zprobe.in" H5 F300 T2000
M950 S0 C"exp.heater3"
M280 P0 S80 ; set 80deg servo position on GPIO port 0
G31 P25 X34 Y0 Z2.05 ; Set Z probe trigger value, offset and trigger height
M557 X15:205 Y15:205 S20 ; Define mesh grid

So now heaters, thermistors, and end stops working... moving on to other changes.

Thanks again!

Thank you, this worked perfectly!

That looks exactly like what I would expect align to look like.

I suggest printing one cube with each option to see what each option looks like.

Awesome, Thanks Again!

@tsitalon1 I have personally used 5 genuine BLTouches without a single defective unit. Do you have the genuine thing, or the knockoff? I'm sure you can get the BLTouch to work without faults on your printer.

I have only gotten the blinking red light (error condition) in two situations: 1) If I messed with the probe (like I pulled the pin down and held it down, or pushed the pin up and held it up when the sensor was expecting the opposite condition. 2) If I turned the printer on with the nozzle touching the bed. In this orientation, The probe tries to run through its startup routine, but it can't fully extend and this triggers the error condition.

Therefore, it is important to lift the Z axis by hand when first turning the machine on. Also, put the following line at the top of your homeall.g: M280 P0 S160 (Note, if you are not using the DUEX expansion board, you will need to append an I1 to invert the pin: M280 P3 S160 I1) This code releases the error and resets the BLTouch.

The power of Macros is such that you should be able to come up with a sequence of events that makes sure the BLTouch is retracted and not popping an error before any printing or homing is done. These are the G-code commands for the BLTouch:

M280 P0 S260 ;reset
M280 P0 S120 ;self test (Note, this runs when the BLTouch is first powered on)
M280 P0 S90 ;retract probe
M280 P0 S10 ;extend probe
