ok, the npn probe is conected. the v+ and ‘ground’ are conected to the boards power supply rails, theres a 150/100k resiter set up, and the sencer output is connected to pin1.22
untriggered the light is on, on the sencor, and zero volts on the out put
triggered the sencer light goes out and theres +4.89v
M119 returns a ‘0’ for untriggerred and a ‘1’ for triggered.
but…G32 starts, homes and then goes to the first point of a three point auto bed leval, the head goes down, the sencer light goes out, and the head then triggers the Zmin end stop.
on pronterface, a M999 is required, after doing so theres a 30 second pause before anything will execute. if you try more than once all comands are executed after the 30 second pause.(as in 5 or 6 moves will exexute) where as any other time pronterface only returns 2 lines max.
so what do i try next?
