- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 28 ก.พ. 2023
- Hey are you sick and tired of the ABL probe randomly deploying crashing in to your print on your Sidewinder X2 or Genius Pro? Here is the solution to that. In this video I show how to replace the stock bed leveling probe with an inductive end stop including the required wiring, and firmware. Links to the firmware, parts and tools below.

Thanks a lot for making these mods available for us artillery 3d printers!! Nice to have someone teaching to the community! You make it happen!
You are very welcome.
As new owner of X2, already had probe malfunction. Good stuff! Thanks.
Wow great video. Thanks for the attention to detail with the tools. I’ve not done anything like this but I’ll give it a go now
Your very welcome, thank you for watching.
great support and content from you man! really appreciate it! Artillery should learn from you!
Thank you very much.
Great mod works perfectly for me, finally get rid of native probe. Thanks a million!
You are very welcome.
Very informative.. you're appreciated
Thanks 😁
Great video, dell done.thanks
Thank you 👍
Really great production and videography on this one - keep up the excellent content.
Thank you very much. Thank you for ypur feedback, it helps me know the work I do is helping people.
@@EtherealProject3D Not so much for help .....you have to come up with a bunch of data to prove as inductive probe is superior to BL touch. A bunch of times was proven quite aposit.
Very very interresting 💪👌👏👏
Thank you. 👏
Great videos!
Thank you!
The boards you sell for the x axis of x1 are/work great! So does the level probe directions ,bracket stl and , firmware / tft firmware you provide.
I was wondering if you could point me in the right direction. You seem to really know your way around the workings of x1 and x2.
I am trying to add a max 31865 and pt100 to sidewinder x1 and x2 to use a biqu h20 water cooled hotend rated to 500'c
Does the Ruby board use spi or uart for the driver boards?
What about the x1 stock mks gen l?
Can the drivers be used as both uart and spi at the same time? Some uart some spi?
Also do either of the boards have unused spi connections?
The max31865 is made to be inserted in place of one of the drivers but specs say it needs spi.
Any advice/help appreciated!
Thank you!
Thank you for your comment and feedback.
I did a little digging and as far as I can find, the Ruby mainboard does not support UART communication to the stepper drivers.
The MKS GEN L V1.0 can do ether UART or SPI as far as I know.
Thank you!
That's what it looked like comparing the code/pin files but I could not find much on the Ruby board.
In Klipper, I
Another thought is that one great feature with asx2 is the light build plate. However my y-axis resonance frequency measures at about 20 hz which is the low limit for Klipper input shaping. Adding extra mass to the build plate will only lower the resonance frequency.
Wow 20 does seem pretty low. Mabe getting an aluminum one will lighten it up.
Excellent video. I have a question, could you do the same on an X1?
This mod can be done on the X1, 3D Print Beginner has a really good write up about it on their website. My X1 has been too far modified to be able to make a video for people to follow on a stock machine.
Great content. Does the firmware update include changes for the all metal hotend?
Thank you very much. The max temp is not changed in this firmware but I can easily compile a version for you that has a higher max temp.
Not necessary at this time. Thank you very much though. You're doing great job.
Thank you 👏
Hello. Good vidéo 👌 and upgrade SW2. Your fan duct seems in two parts 🤔 .stl is on you website ? Thk 🙏
Thank you very much. Yes STL is on my website.
¡Gracias!
You are welcome
hi , when i try doing the m997 command it just disconnects the printer and i have to power cycle it in order for it to be recognized again by the computer... why is that?
I have converted to Klipper and have been using the unused z-axis end stop input for the filament runout sensor. In the stock setup this sensor is routed to the display board and not the main board for some reason. Note the z-axis pin on the main board (that you are using in video) and was apparently previously used in the old x1 design still is conveniently connected to a vacant connector on right side of gantry. Thus no internal wireing is necessary to access this pin.
Yep, its as if they knew the stock probe was junk and would fail on so many machines.
@@EtherealProject3D well tell me about it. My genius pro bltouch failed right out of the box with error m999. In the box it came a z stop device to install "in case the bltouch didn't work". That z stop isn't supposed to be there, the only reason being the bltouch utter unreliability. Thanks for the video and one little question...the provided Z stop by artillery can be just connected to the free plug at the right... Right? It wouldn't be necessary to do the steps you are showing here... Thanks!
@@Drumaier yes
@Ethereal Project 3D Can you point me to the STL for the parts fan nozzle that you are sporting there? Thanks in advance!
For the stock fan, use this one, www.thingiverse.com/thing:3927320
For a larger 5015 fan, use this one, www.etherealproject3d.com/stl-files/swx1-%26-swx2-5015-part-cooling-fan-duct
mi x2 no me guarda la autonivelacion y me tiene harto, intentare hacer si metodo, pero como no dice que sensor es el que pone
espero su respuesta dandole un like, gracias
I would really just like to know why the probe deployes randomly any time I run the part cooling fan at level other than off or max...shared power from fan?
The PWM signal for the fan speed control is bleeding into the PWM control for the probe solenoid would be my guess.
I made this modification, checked the wiring a few times and the probe doesn’t trigger on Z homing at all.
Flashed the firmware twice, cleared the eeprom a few times and still no luck.
I bought the upgraded toolhead board from your site and was using it, thought that might be it and went back to the stock board and same results.
What could possibly be the issue?
You may have a bad probe or its not wired correctly. Can you email me at etherealproject3d@gmail.com and i can give you further assistance.
How could i switch the BLTouch to Inductive Probe in Klipper? I made all the things from the tuturial videos and the stream parts and i can control the printer in Klipper but when i want to auto home, it just try to use BLTouch
You need to changed the settings for the BL-Touch in the config file. I tried it and got mixed results. There is a good config reference section on the Kilpper website that will tell you all you need to know, check it our here, www.klipper3d.org/Config_Reference.html
My X2 isn't randomly crashing into the bed... It is full on suicidal! Attempt to home it, level it, set Z, whatever. In all cases, the extruder moves up and centers, exercises the ABL probe, then comes down promptly, as always, the probe touches the bed, but stays extended and the printer attempts to bury the nozzle in the plate!
Shall I assume the problem is in the ABL probe? If so, I think I'd prefer to imitate what you did earlier, replacing the Artillery ABL with a legitimate BLTouch (avoiding fiddling with the firmware).
Thanks for all you do.
Getting a better probe is priority number one on this machine.
I checked. But the fan inside the case is not active. I installed the original version again and it works. Could it be inactive in the bin file?
I never turned it off
Thank you very much.
I installed the software, the fan inside the case does not work?
Make sure its plugged in the correct spot
I checked. But the fan inside the case is not active. I installed the original version again and it works. Could it be inactive in the bin file?
I have the same problem. The big fan on the panel doesn't work. Does it always run or does it work only when the printer getting hot?...
I'm having problem with the STM32. When i use that firmware.bin file which you have provided it will notice the start address and I can flash the firmware but when I try with modified firmware.hex file (Marlin, built in VScode) it will not notice the start address and it makes an error "failed to download segment 0" and other things. Anyone encountered this problem?
I believe you will need to use the .bin file, sometimes it doesnt play nice with the .hex file.
Yeah that seems to be it, thanks!@@EtherealProject3D
Great !
But I'm owner SX1 is a solution for it?
Yes this can be done on a SWX1. I have not done it myself but It wouldnt be too hard at all. I can help you if you would like.
12:43 R.I.P. Headphone users 😁
Yeah I dont know why it dis that. On my rendered video its not there. TH-cam does something that makes it weried sometimes
My X2 has been having problems with the leveling. Artillery support has not been keen resolve my problem. My printer is still under warranty.
Oh no thats not good, Im sorry to hear that.
Is this valid for klipper installed Sidewinder?
It can be setup in Klipper if that is what you are asking. This video is how to do it with Marlin.
Great work..hey I'm caint of bad on software.its any way for you to download all that in a SD card and sale that ..thankns
Are you having trouble downloading it from the link?
It would have been interesting to see the results of an M48
I will have to try that. Thanks for the suggestion.
What inductive end stop do you use? Any link to buy this?
I used an artillery replacement one.
Hi @@EtherealProject3D, the inductive end stop is a NO sensor?... Is PNP or NPN sensor? Thanks
@@47fabioak NO NPN prox sensor.
Can you add in the description the link of the inductive tools
I Will do it on my Sidewinder x2
I need just thé link for buy the things
Links should be in there but I will double check asap.
@@EtherealProject3D ok thanks so much
07:34 Where can I purchase that piece?

Some main boards need a jumper before updating firmware!
I have heard about this but it seems like there are not many of those out there. I was not aware of this wben I made this video.
Inductive senzor sux becose it mess with the heatbed. And you must do calibration with hot bed.
Yes heat can affect the probe trigger distance as the probe heats up. I found the best practice is to have the hot end a couple mm above to bed while the bed heats up to allow it to heat the probe up. This gave me the best results.
Hi,U R wizard of artillery🥳 mayby you can solve abl problem with sidewinder x2, i and many other sidewinder owners had really annoing?
My printer got error code of abl. I tried to fix this with z sensor what came with printter and flashed it 3.05 and install Z axis sensor, when i tried to level ,All hell broke loose and ears shattering drilling sound was really Horrible🤔, i tried without sensor,thinking new sensor is too lemon..abl sensor seems ok,no blinking light ,i think it blink red after abl error,but now it seem ok.. Im not alone with this becouse there is lot people who has same prob i bought printter march 15,so its not old,i have print about 3-4kg
The abl sensor that coemes on the machine is not great and many dont last long. I recomend replacing it with a better probe, ether bltouch or crtouch.
I don't see the link for the tft
I will have a look
Are you looking for the firmware link?
@Ethereal Project 3D sorry I was on the wrong video when I asked this question. I was watching your live stream video of the Klipper install on my smart tv and was looking for it on my phone lol. BTW, love your channel. I ordered 2 of your breakout boards today for two of my SWX2's.
Thank you very much, Im happy you are enjoying the channel. Thank you for your order as well, I dropped it off at the post office today 😁
What's next, removing some screws to reduce weight? This is nosense at all.
Inductive/capacitive probes are great only if you want to scratch your bed, they have pretty bad accuracy.
BLtouch will always work by contact, gjving much better results.
When done correctly an Inductive probe works just as well as a bltouch
Why in the world ,you will change BL touch to inductive probe ? This is because you run out of ideas for video ?
Some folks prefer this method and when done right produces good results. So I figured I would do a how to for those that want it. I have this on my corexy machine and its great. Ive gone back to a CR-Touch on my X2 because I was having trouble getting the inductive probe to work right with Klipper.
