Z Axis Trouble after 3D Touch Install
Posted: Mon Aug 31, 2020 2:49 am
I followed the 3D Touch Auto Level Sensor User Manual. First, mounting the 3D Touch sensor to my 3D printed bracket then wiring to the GT2650 Rev A+ board.
I then proceeded to download the Marlin-PI3_Pro_B_3DTouch(A+).zip. I noticed all the configuration.h and pins.h revisions in the 3D Touch Auto Level Sensor User Manual are already contained in this zip file.
Once the Marlin-PI3_Pro_B_3DTouch(A+) was uploaded to my Pro B, I sent G codes contained in the User Manual for testing. The 3D Touch functioned as described with in pin going up or down depending on the code.
In addition, I added G29 after G28 in my Start Slicer G-code.
When G29 is issued to my Pro B after G28, the X and Y axis move like in the video and the 3D Touch pin moves up and down. The issue is that Z axis moves away from the bed and does it in the air.
The Z axis seems to work like before the code upgrade. Z+ is up and Z- is down. I also tried the 3D Touch calibration procedure on this url: https://www.geeetech.com/wiki/index.php ... alibration
During the calibration procedure, I can never adjust the Z axis down far enough to do the "paper" test.
