@t3p3tony I wired a usb c breakout board to the back of the jst header, just with the d+ d- pads

@jphilly I'm glad you solved it.

@t3p3tony I thought it was probably running completely then pausing because it moved, dwelled, then popped up saying it was paused. I tried offloading the dwell and resume to another macro and calling that instead which seems to have removed the noticeable dwell but it doesn't resume so it's hard to tell if it's doing anything. I guess I'll just have to retry when it gets added

@jphilly it would be better to put the SPI daughter board on a riser, because if the drivers are on a riser then the high ground currents when the motors are driven could cause noise issues.

@jphilly Homing to zmax is an option, but the distance between Z0 measured at the start of the print to the actual position where the zmax endstop triggers must be measured accurately.

For what it's worth, I have 1mm lead screws and after a power outage I don't rehomed to zmax even though I could. I just find the approximate height of the print, check it against the sliced model to find the exact layer it was on and then use that to set the Z position with G92 and resume the print. There may still be a slight line visible on the print, either due to inexact position or simply just the effects of cooling and shrinkage. But if that's not important at least you have a saved print.

@dc42 Thanks for the fix, I'll try the beta when it releases

My printer is currently in pieces so I can't test, but I assume the way to do it with the meta commands would be a macro with basically this:

M409 K"sensors.analog[<sensor number>].lastReading" while result >= <shut-off temp> M409 K"sensors.analog[<sensor number>].lastReading" M81 S1

Is this correct? It would busywait (which probably isn't important). Is there a way to use them to actually influence M81 S1? (so rather than having a macro to do a delayed shutdown just be able to put M81 S1 in the console)

@zapta Digital resistor is a very good idea, it gave me an inspiration, thank you

@bearer I guess I worded that poorly. I meant when the bltouch's 5v and servo wires are connected to the board's 5v and z_probe_mod pins, respectively, not that I wired them together.

@jphilly said in SD card over SPI not working:

I tried to use the sd card slot on my paneldue with a maestro, however I can't get it to say anything but "Error: Cannot initialise SD card 1: Card is unusable." I tried with both cables and just paneldue sd ribbon (30 cm). I tried a 10cm cable just to test. As far as I tested everything had continuity and the card had power where it should. I've tested a separate, bare spi sd card reader and it has the same effect even with a 10cm cable. SPI is working on the board to some extent as the pt100 daughterboard is working, but I can't get sds to work. I've tried the sd that came with the maestro and a clean fat32 formatted card. I don't see anything about it on the paneldue hookup page or the gcodes list but is there something I need to add to the config for this to work? (RRF 3.0)

This is a known issue in RRF3 builds for the Maestro earlier than 3.01-RC3.

G1 H1 F240 Z5 does what I want. (besides a feedrate change just a move type change from the generated home configs is all that was needed)
