@jay_s_uk Yeah, thanks. I figured that would be the case. Running a bunch of CAN wires from the hotend seems like such a waste. One for the Toolboard and another for the Z-Probe. I hope that will be it... because the lack of my due diligence seems to be costing me in the end. Welp! I guess I will have to either run multiple CAN lines to the distribution board or just configure an inductive probe and attach that to the tool board... and on a 500x500mm heat bed that will take a while. lol Well thank you for your help it means a lot.

RE: Wiring a Duet 3 Scanning Z-Probe v1.0 to a Toolboard v1.3
@gloomyandy So if I understand this correctly. From the Distribution Board run CAN and Power to the 1LC, But only use 1) CAN_L and 2) CAN_H to control the 1LC. Then use 3) CAN_L and 4) CAN_H for connecting to the SZP and pull +v5 and GND from the 1LC. Correct? Is this because 3) CAN_L and 4) CAN_H are not use due to 1LC not having a CAN_OUT?

RE: Wiring a Duet 3 Scanning Z-Probe v1.0 to a Toolboard v1.3
@WOPR73 yeah, the toolboard only has the "in" if you will for the CAN to control the rest of the items connected to it. the board doesnt have an "out" for additional CAN connections. The distribution board does have 3 more CAN connections. So, there is that if you do not mind running multiple CAN wires from the same location back to the distro board.

RE: Wiring a Duet 3 Scanning Z-Probe v1.0 to a Toolboard v1.3
@gloomyandy Thank you for the information. I am not that great at wiring things at my age... But, I will take a closer look at the possible replacement for the probe and maybe tool board by the looks of it. Just was hoping to stay with all Duet on this build. But, it seems that is not possible due to design oversight. Thanks for the link.

RE: Wiring a Duet 3 Scanning Z-Probe v1.0 to a Toolboard v1.3
@WOPR73
I am going from Duet 3 6hc using CAN to the Duet 3 Distribution board then CAN to the Duet 3 ToolBoard. My issue is the wiring I have GND and +5v as needed by the Z-Probe... Just not sure about the C_L, C_H on the Z-probe and the IO.0 IN and OUT on the Toolboard if they would communicate correctly and which wires to connect where. I do not have that janky resistor thing to deal with... the distribution board fixes that design oversite. My issue is I am not sure that the Z-probe will talk to the toolboard given it seems to be only able to use CAN. I have no issue with CAN. but, it seems that the Toolboard only supports one CAN connection and all the rest must branch off from that toolboard. which is what I want, but I did not see that the z-probe is only CAN until now. I don't understand how this z-probe is only setup to allow CAN given they have a toolboard for connecting all other hotend hardware too. So, my lack of understanding electronics must be at play here or it is a very bad oversight in design. Why would design this probe to you use CAN only to run more wires only to the same place as other CAN connection. Defeats the purpose in my opinion. So, toolboard should accept the z-probe or Duet needs to get on the stick and make another z-probe version that works with the toolboard.Duet 3 6hc -(CAN)- Distribution board -(CAN)- toolboard -(PROBLEM HERE)- z-probe
Toolboard is: 4-pin JST PH IO_0 Input/output with +5V power, for endstops, Z-probes.
Z-Probe is: 4-pin JST PA GND, 5V, CAN_L, CAN_H +5V power and CAN -
Wiring a Duet 3 Scanning Z-Probe v1.0 to a Toolboard v1.3
I have just started wiring my self sourced RatRig v-Core 3.1 enc. All of my electrical hardware is from Duet. The Z-Probe wiring shows a Ground, +5v, C_L, C_H and the ToolBoard IO.0 has io0.out, GND, io0.in, +5v. The document listed below shows it only connecting to CAN. I was hoping to connect all my hotend electronics to the Toolboard so that I only have a CAN, Pos, Neg. running back to the Duet 3 6HC. Is there a way around this or should I use a different connection else where defeating the purpose of the ToolBoard? Any help would be greatly appreciated... I would like to avoid magic blue smoke at all cost. Thanks!

RE: Error: Short-to-ground on drivers x
I am new to the group... So please bear with me. Guide for posting "requests for help" state that I need to submit the following:
Firmware: RepRapFirmware for Duet 3 MB6HC 3.1.1 (2020-05-19b2)
Board: Duet 3 MB6HC (MB6HC)
Core XY
Duet Web Control 3.1.1
Other Hardware: 2303HS280AW-OB Stepper MotorI am new to building my own 3D printer and want to make sure that I am not wiring something incorrectly. Due to the posts above I am a little confused on the wiring for my steppers. "IF" I understood things correctly the following wiring should be correct? Using the online config and trying to find the same universal language for the each setting within the config tool seems to be somewhat challenging to say the least.
Be gentle... I am new!
