3D touch GT2560

Post by Laeriut »

Hi all

I have the 3D touch leveling sensors. I have the GT2560 board but not like in the description. So now i dont know how to wire the sensors. I cant solder the 3 pins on ZMAX because there are only 2. How can i wire the sensors on the board? Show attachement, this are my endstops on the board.

Thanks :)

Hi,
Did you read the User Manual of 3D touch?
You need remove the Z_max connector then solder another 3-pin connector to replace it,otherwise you can't get your sensor working i guess:

Yes i read the manual. But i have a different board... i dont have 3 connectors on the board to solder a 3pin header... look at the picture, my endstop connectors are all facing parallel to the board. On the board in the description they are 90° degrees otherwise.

I fixed my Problem. I am now able to use the sensors (without soldering anything).

That sounds like a great solution, cause I'm to scared too solder on my board.

Hi,there are 3 pins on ZMax 's location.You just need to replace the 2pins' socket with 3pins.
