QuoteJKaechler I had some trouble with the IR sensor back when i was running plain glass over an aluminum heatbed. Now I am running borosilicate glass 1/4" thick, and i have a proper ramps/marlin board running now..... so i have a question. Would it help or hurt to sand the top surface of that boro glass to make it sort of opaque. would the ir reflect better off it? sanding with something reby Idefix - For Sale
Gives me an idea. Maybe i can try and play with the driver pi configuration (pull it high or low by means of co figuring the board)by Idefix - Controllers
Thanks. Maybe I was not clear: I unplugged the driver not the stepper. In regards to the resistor. Could be the case. Just wondering why other have no issue with the genuine TMC2100 and even the china clones on the sbase without adding a resistor :-(by Idefix - Controllers
Hi, I tried adding MKS TMC2100 to my MKS SBase 1.3 board. To make the installation easier I used a MKS external driver board. Following the installation: - TMC2100 gnd to cfg1 bridge to enable spread cycle - 5V and GND to SBase endstop 5v and gnd connector - VIN and GND to SBase 24v power in - 4 signal cables to Xaxis external breakout - adjust vref to 1.4v on the tmc2100 - inverted the direcby Idefix - Controllers
Thanks for the reply David. The sensor is securely mounted and does not wobble. I will run a few more tests to ensure the issue is not at another place in the setup and report back.by Idefix - For Sale
Hi guys, I'm trying to get the IR sensor to work now for a couple of months. In particular, I'm seeing a high variance (>0.1mm) which makes the bed leveling and G29 operation a nightmare :-( Initially, I thought the PEI bed I used was the issue (although painted black on the back etc) so I upgraded the bed to a Buildtak Flex system but after installation, I still see a similar behavior, unforby Idefix - For Sale
