BLTouch instead of 3DTouch

[goldrake999]

Hi, I’m a new user and I’m owner of a A20M.
I bought a BLTouch sensor instead of the clone 3DTouch since many people are not so happy about it.
My question is: the firmware A20M_Marlin-1.1.x12864_3DTouch is BLTouch ready or it works only with 3DTouch ?

If it not compatible, can you help me to modify the firmware ?

Thank you

First, I think it is 100% compatible.
Second, you have made the right choice, I bought two 3D touch and both have a very high standard déviation and so are unusable.

OK, thank you. I will try when I receive it. I hope that in the mean time someone tell me that has already installed and it is fully working.

Bye

Hi, I gave my BLTouch to a friend of mine to double check it and it is fully working, so after reading some threads in various forum, I have seen that I'm non the only one with this problem since my version of Marlin is 1.1.8 and my BLTouch is a BLTouch Smart V3.0 or V3.1 so someone upgrading to Marlin 2.0 was able to let it works.
Can someone give me a feedback ?

Thank you, so I will flash it with Marlin 2.0 and I will give you feedback.
Thanks
