3D Touch Sensor:Auto-levelling for Geeetech 3D printer

@William

Are there any instructions on how to hook the 3DTouch up to a MeCreator 2?

HI!

I installed my Sensor and modified the firmware (I hope correctly, the instructions are not very easy to understand)

Anyway...

When I power up I get the selftest 3 time movement.

When I try to send any command from Repetierhost in the G-code window it says nothing and do nothing.

Not even the alarm test works.

When I try to move Home in all axis Z says "Z probe out. bed"

In this case it doesnt matter if probe is lit or not, in or out...

Thanks so much for uploading that bracket. Unfortunately I use that side for my fan. The two screw holes on the carriage fit a turbo fan perfect so I can't move the fan.

Back to the drawing board.

@William

Is there a guide or instructions that I can read to get the 3DTouch wired to my Me Creator 2?

It worked for one day, now it wont work at all

Can someone Please post their config.h and pins.h files so I can verify correct settings?

[UndCon]

I found an error I made...

According to the instructions here:
http://www.geeetech.com/blog/tag/3dtouc ... ng-sensor/

I connected the 3pin BROWN - RED - ORANGE to the GT2560 board _ Not BROWN, ORANGE, RED as it is supposed to be...

I simply assumed the 3pin was a straight connector (I used a regular RC extension)


Question: Did I ruin this port on the board when ORANGE and RED got mixed up?

Question: Can I save it by using another free 3pin connector by assigning another PIN?

Question: Did I ruin the sensor ?

Thx for the provided files configurationh and pins.h

This did not help me at all, I have the correct settings on my printer - but sensor does still not work.

Maybe the wire order is a problem,could take a picture of your wire order?

Like I wrote above I found a mistake with wires and corrected it.

I purchased 3D touch sensor to my Prusa I3 Pro B and today I installed it to printer, but I was not able to get it working. When I power up printer, pin is mowing 3 times, but when I try to send any custom G-codes, nothing happens. What should I do / check next to get it working? All needed firmware modifications are done.

UndCon: Did u managed to get your sensor to working?
