Really well done videos. Short, to the point with no tangents for humor and commentary. I have a question...
I would think using these optical sensors, I would put some tab on the head that would block this sensor at the stop. However, in the video you changed the Z_MAX_ENDSTOP_INVERTING to true and thus got open when it is blocked. Wouldn't I want FALSE and thus show triggered or am I mis-interpreting your situation?
It should be false, but I wanted to make people think about it And you're correct.
When will i use for instance Z min or Z max? Thank you in advance...
mark vasquez normally you will only use one direction. It's used more to demonstrate the Marlin firmware options.
Nice video series! I just bought the Gen-L, and I'm looking forward to get started.
Do you have a BLTouch? Could you demonstrate how to connect one to the MKS Gen-L and configure it in Marlin? I think that auto bed leveling is quite a nifty tool these days. Thanks for your videos.
I'll order one soon.
great video, i have a qestion now if i connect two sensors on both the right z endstop and one on the left how do i tell marling to use bothe to activate the endstops seperatly so is makes sure that they are both leveled independantly
One would think it's looking for first endstop trigger. I just found in configuration_adv.h, look for num_z_stepper_driver and set to 2. The will use second stepper to E1.
@@EdwardBraiman im already using 2 stepper drivers so that doesnt work
@@EdwardBraiman i think the cr10 the 500x500 one uses 2 endstops and 2 stepper drivers so il have a look at marlin for that one 4 some help
