Great comparison between the two!
Thanks! Definitely using the BLTouch as the primary
Thanks a lot for this video! Very instructive, especially because you included the problem caused by the large x/y offset of the nozzle and the probe. Greetings from Switzerland.
Thanks for the Bl tuch adapter!
You’re welcome!
2 Questions: 1) Did you leave the z axis switch plugged in? 2) Does this work with the standard Ender display screen or is the color one needed? Thank you.
Very cool 😎 this will be my next upgrade thanks buddy 👍
Glad to hear, I think it’s a very worthy upgrade :D
thanks. help me a lot!
Hi great video and recent, but left me slightly confused.
In your build you showed your main board which was 4.2.2 yet the firmware you downloaded was 4.2.7 could you advise why, i thought it has to be the same as your board.
Also with Jyers from others earlier video by others they also downloaded one of three version of the DWIN_SET display files Original, Custom and Gotcha to upload directly to the screen yo didn't do that
Hey thanks for the comment! Sorry for the confusion. To more clearly show the jacks I used an extra board I had around that was 4.2.2 but on the part of the video showing the bottom of the printer you can see my printer has the 4.2.7 board in it. You should download the firmware to match your board.
As for the other files you mentioned I’m not familiar with those, I just put the single jyers firmware file onto the SD card for my printer and all of the functions have been working fine. If you find out what those other files are for I would be interested to know!
Jyers manual mesh has great results as well.
I haven’t tried that one yet I’ll have to check it out!
My auto is horrible. I have to manually do it.
Mine wasn’t working at first the. I bumped the Z offset a little closer and now it works great. But not all machines and sensors are created equal
@@DesktopInventions Yes, me too. It wasn't sticking at all but after dialing in -z it worked great. I thought it would be closer after probing.
Yea probing finds the shape of the bed and where it is relative to the nozzle, but sometimes you still have to tune the S offset which is the nozzle relative to the probe
with this can you remove the z axis limit switch or does it still need to be there
You can remove it, but you might want to keep it and just lower it out of the way in case you ever need to use it again.
Have you ever used CR touch? I thought about same cooler upgrades but I would need this change
I have not used the CR touch. If the mounting dimensions are similar it might work on this bracket otherwise would probably just need a slight adjustment.
Hey im quite new to 3dprinting and a lot of other tutorials on installing a bltouch go through editing the code in order to make some features work, you did none of that and it still worked ? . I have a bltouch installed on my new ender 3 v2 and i dont know if its working ( i dont know wether i have manually leveled the bed very well or if the abl is compensating for the imperfections(my first layer adheres well) ( i followed all your steps like creating the mesh etc ))
Hey Max. If you install the Jyers firmware like my video you don’t have to go in and change any firmware code. It sounds like your BLTouch is working, but you could screw one of your corner screws up or down, create a new mesh, then look at the mesh values and see if the values follow the change you made. If it does then your BLTouch is working. Hope this helps!
Do you know how to configure the offsets for cr touch? Because it doesn't create a mesh (because of the firmware from creality)
CRtouch and BLtouch work with the same firmware. I'm not familiar with Creality's firmware for the CR touch but there should be options to change the offset value for the CRtouch. If not, you can always use the Jyers firmware in the video if you have the Ender 3V2.
Hello, interesting and useful videos, please know why the information on the display of your printer differs from the stock version, did you change the firmware of the display? If so, let you know what you sewed. Thank you.
This is jyers firmware. It is an improved firmware over the stock one. Some extra menus and a lot of options that are preconfigured for BLTouch. I have a section in my BLTouch video that shows how to install this.
@@DesktopInventions Thank you!
Does this improved firmware work also for the CRtouch?
Yea no problem. BLTouch and CRTouch can use the same firmware
Hey do you know if I add the screen from the v2 to my Pro if I can use Jyers firmware? I have the pro but I have to recomplie marlin to add a x and y probe offset.
It seems like it should work on the Ender 3 if you have the right board and you use the V2 screen. I'm not an expert in this area, so tread with caution.

@@DesktopInventions thanks I may try. I have the 4.2.7 upgraded silent board for the pro. I have done everything I can to it at this point. Noctua and all with your help
Hi great vid, i am just wondering if you know how to download firmware on the ender 3 pro? Is it the same as the ender 3 v2 because i tried it but it didnt work. Update: i tried using the ender 3 v2 firmware and i think it started to work but then it just stayed blank. It has been around 20 mins and it is still blank.
unfortunately Jyers firmware is preconfigured for the Ender3V2. Since it has a different touch screen than the Ender 3 Pro I don't think the firmware is compatible. You can check out Rob's (3DPrintscape) website which has tons of links for preconfigured firmware for other 3D printer models such as the Ender 3 Pro.

Hello, i tried to follow your tutorial using a 3d touch on a ender3v2. Unfortunately the printer it's not moving down to the z axis... Do you have any suggestion to solve this problem?
Hey sorry to hear about your problem. I would suggest the following steps: 1. make sure your Z-axis stepper motor is plugged in. 2. See if the Z-axis moves at all with the manual controls 3. make sure the BLTouch is able to reach the bed (make sure the old stop switch and other things are not in the way) 4. when you press autolevel the bed, you can touch the probe with your finger to make sure it's working and the printing head stops. Based on which step you have issues with you can find what the next step of troubleshooting. I hope this helps!
Hi, great video. Just have a question, is firmware compatible with ender 3?
That's a good question, if you have the 4.2.2 or 4.2.7 main boards I think it should be, but I haven't tried this personally.
Hello. I have a question because I have a bl-touch with dedicated creality, so what kind of frimware should I choose? I would ask for a quick reply 😊😊
I added a link in the description that explains the different firmware configurations. Most importantly just make sure you pick the one that matches your board version. Beyond that it’s up to you after reading the configurations. I would recommend the HS version or the UBL version
@@DesktopInventions version of the boards, i.e. I understand that the motherboard version? for me it comes out 4.2.2
Hey can You answer my question so i have a 3d touch from geeetech i don't know what thing on firmware i must change , i already follow many tutorial but all dosen't work proprely on marlin 2.1.1 firmware , have any solution?
The 3Dtouch has the pinouts and wire definition as the BLTouch so you can follow the tutorials for that. It's easiest to download pre-configured firmware for you printer with the BLTouch enabled. That's what I did in this video with Jyer's for the Ender3V2. Creality also supports other printer firmware on their site pre-configured for the 3DTouch/BLTouch. Hope this helps!
Hey, I was wondering if the firmware is compatible with a CR-touch?
As far as I know, the CR-touch and BLTouch are electrically equivalent.
Hey, when I am trying to trigger the probe with my finger, nothing happens and the Z axis doesn't even move. Can you help me somehow?
Check that the wires are plugged in all the way on your control board and on your BLTouch. I had a similar symptoms one time when the plug was only partially plugged into my BLTouch.
What can I do if the 3d touch starts to make a mesh but doesn't even make contact with the bedplate on the first point, and just stops there without doing any more points?
Did you figure it out?
I sort of did, i played with the deferent software on creality website and disconnected the plug to the z axis trigger@@marekant7776
Hey, I got myself a bltouch for my E3V2 4.2.2. Why did you take the file with the HS and UBL instead of another?
It just has some more features whether you use them or not. UBL is unified bed leveling and I believe the HS is high speed. Here is a link that explains more www.3dmakerengineering.com/blogs/3d-printing/unified-bed-leveling-marlin
@@DesktopInventions Oh that clears things up! Luckily I have babyskills in arduino, but I'll be alright. Thank you very much!!!
Hi, I am a beginner to 3D printing. I recently bought an Ender 3 with 4.2.7 mainboard, does the firmware provided by Jyers only applies to Ender 3 v2 regardless of the mainboard?
Great question, Jyers firmware has different versions for 4.2.7 and 4.2.2, just make sure you download the correct file. Also check out the wiki for the Jyers firmware in the link which better explains some of the other firmware options.
Need your help, pls. I managed to set up the 3d touch just fine on my ender 3v2. X/Y offsets should work now. But: I having problems setting up Z. Even after adjusting it to -2:50 (what workes fine with paper methode), when I creat a mash, the 3d touch messures in a much higher hight.
:(
So, update: fixed. New Problem: Doesnt print. In Short: filament is pretty lose, it only sticks to the nozzle
Sorry to hear you’re having issues. For bed adhesion try heating your bed to 60C and make sure your bed is very clean, clear of debris and wash it with dish soap to clear all the oils. Next watch it very close when you’re doing your first layer print and make sure it’s getting enough squish. If you’re unsure you can adjust the Z offset while it’s printing the first layer until you get a nice looking first layer.
People also recommend to use hair spray, painters tape, or glue stick which does work to get your layers to stick. But personally I don’t recommend this as it tends to make a mess over time.
@@DesktopInventions thx man! I already tried bumping Up the Heat, but it seems Like my printer is Not able to Feed the Filament. Quiet weird, worked Like a Charm without bl Touch Yesterday.
@@RTReview. what type of printer do you have? Did you try doing extruder calibration? You may have an issue with your extruder.
@@DesktopInventions Ender 3v2 with 4.2.2 Board. Its weird since I havent Changed anything. Seems Like my printer doesnt 'catch' the Filament anymore. Gonna desamble and resamble the Extruder
What is the website
It’s a GitHub website where you can download different printer firmware
