@npm1 Please try the following...

Run M98 P"config.g" and post any output.
Run M119 and G31 in the console both with and without the probe being triggered.
3 Comment out the line: M574 Z1 S2 and then repeat the two tests run above.
Power off the board, remove the Z driver module, power the board on again and re-run the tests in step 2.
Post the output from all 6 of the tests.

@npm1 Are those results with or without the probe being in a triggered state?

npm1

@gloomyandy the first response is with m574 and the second response is without m574

gloomyandy

@npm1 Yes but I asked you to run M119 and G31 twice for each test once without having the probe in a triggered state and then again with the probe in a triggered state (by placing something metal near it so the LED comes on). Have you run the test with the Z driver removed?

npm1

@gloomyandy
without m574 and with metal touching the probe

hope that helps

gloomyandy

@npm1 Are you still using this line for your probe definition:

M558 P5 C"!^zstop" H5 F120 T6000

If so with the Z driver still removed enter

M558 P5 C"zstop" H5 F120 T6000

in the console (or change the line in your config.g and reboot)
and rerun both sets of tests.

npm1

@gloomyandy still no changes, the only thing that change is the z probe value being 1000 instead of zero

npm1

@gloomyandy have I blown something on the board

npm1

shall i update the firmware
