remove these lines from your start gcode

I will try that and see if it works.

Alright, so I feel like I have come a long way since I replaced my CR-10S board with a Duet. I love it, but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to get it to print faster. I have a Hemera and it was printing lovely at 160mm/s, but now I can't get it over 24mm/s.

I've read other threads and adjusted my acceleration and jerk control but I get no changes. When I am homing it moves fast, but when I start printing it slows down. I'm sure this is something I'm doing in Cura, but again, I've tried everything I could think of and need another pair of eyes to assist.

Slicer: Cura - Deleted printer and added using RepRap flavor
Homing is fast if I do it through the web. When it homes with gcode through the print it is slow. This is where I think the problem is but I'm just missing it.

Welp... as always, you guys are right. Must have had a short in the original wire because I got the new BLT and just by replacing the harness did it start to work. Let this be another lesson to everyone... if your BLtouch doesn't work, get some new wires.

@Phaedrux said in BLTouch not Triggering:

The way the BLtouch triggers and then immediately resets means you won't usually catch a glimpse of the z-probe status changing in the web interface, so that's not a reliable indicator of it working. The static test during a G30 move is the only way to really know.

I don't think it will make a differene but you can try removing the ^ from the pin name C"^zprobe.in"

Having a second bltouch to test with might be a good sanity check.

Just purchased one from Amazon. Fingers crossed that does the trick. I'm doubtful though because this was working just fine with my other board, but I get it, it's usually the easy things that wind up being the issue.

So... also, the Z-Probe always reads as "0" no matter what. Same on either of the pins I try. Is there a way I can test the signal with a multimeter? To see if the BLT is sending a signal to the board? Then, if it is, I couldn't imagine the board being bad, but then again stranger things have happened to me.

@Phaedrux said in BLTouch not Triggering:

Ah ok. I guess that would have been added after you shared the config.g above.

I removed that line and re-ran M122... heater7 issue isn't there anymore. Still no luck on the trigger though. Tried the logic that antclabs suggests but same results.

@Phaedrux said in BLTouch not Triggering:

@Veti said in BLTouch not Triggering:

if deploy and retract are working then the servo part of the bltouch is working.
the trigger signal is the problem.

Yes, just wondering why it's complaining about heater 7. I don't think it's references in config.g other than in his M950 for the bltouch.

Is it because I added the line:

M307 H7 A-1 C-1 D-1

@Veti said in BLTouch not Triggering:

M280 P0 S150

Where would I put those commands? I ran them and they don't do anything. Well, it comes up green, but that's it.

@brewchester said in BLTouch not Triggering:

Error: Heater 7 not found

Is the deploy and retract commands working? M401 and M402?

Yes they are.

Error: Heater 7 not found This error message is a bit confusing then.

Could you change from that heater 7 pin to heater 3/pin 8 on the expansion header? Then change the reference to exp.heater7 to exp.heater3 and send M98 P"config.g" again to see if it's still complaining about heater 7.

I've done this a few times and it has the same affect. I've tried 3, 5, and 7 and it still won't trigger.

@Mac3D-FPV said in BLTouch not Triggering:

@brewchester Just checking to best sure. BLTouch version 3.1, at least for me, worked out of the box (after adjusting the mounting height). Earlier versions required cutting a trace on the PCB to operate on 3.3V logic; this was not required for the v3.1.

Here are my BLTouch settings (I am on firmware version 3.1.1), if it helps:

; Z-Probe
M950 S0 C"exp.heater3" ; create servo pin 0 for BLTouch
M558 P9 C"^zprobe.in" H5 F90 T10800 A10 S0.005 ; set Z probe type to bltouch and the dive height + speeds probe up to 5 times until 2 consecutive readings are within 0.005, if none average of 5
G31 P500 X67.5 Y-11.5 Z2.946 ; set Z probe trigger value, offset and trigger height
M557 X70:280 Y15:255 S30 ; define mesh grid

The mounting specs (for the pin height relative to the tip of the nozzle) for the BLTouch, if I recall correctly, changed with the v3.1, compared to earlier 2.X versions. You might want to double check the antclabs manuals (available at www.antclabs.com) to verify your retracted pin height is within that specified for the v3.1 ). I have mine at 3.3mm above the nozzle tip - in the middle of the acceptable range.

Thanks... I haven't let it drive to the bed yet and only have been using my hand to try and trigger the touch. The height shouldn't matter at this point correct?

@Phaedrux said in BLTouch not Triggering:

Can you post a photo of the wiring at the board? Just the other day someone had connected the white wire to the PanelDue port rather than the Z probe port... never hurts to have a second pair of eyes.

@Mac3D-FPV said in BLTouch not Triggering:

What version BLTouch do you have? It is typically printed on the PCB visible from the outside of the BLTouch.

Version 3.1 - I believe I got it from Matterhackers.

@Veti Sorry, yes... I meant that I tried a G30 and get it to trigger by hand. As far as the cabling, I checked the wiring and crimps. Did a continuity check using Ohms on each of the pins and everything seems to check out.

Hi all,

I've looked into every article. Compared my configs and after 3 days I'm at a loss and need help. I have a genuine bltouch configured based on the betrue3d post but it won't trigger. I'll start by saying that this was working fine with my old Creality board, so I don't believe it's the BLT.

I have the following wiring connected:
White = Z_probe_in
Black = Ground
Red = Pin 1 on expansion
Blue = Pin 2 on expansion
Yellow = Pin 31 on expansion

All the commands work for the touch, pin down, up, self-test, etc. but it won't trigger no matter what I've done. Here are my configs:
