All the videos that I found were about older boards or using the model where the bltouch replaces the z-end stop switch instead of augmenting it. I wanted to keep it as an extra failsafe so that I was not reliant on the soft switch to prevent a head crash. | |
Wire Bltouch to Probe port | |
Leave z end switch connected | |
Load firmware-bltouch.bin from https://github.com/bigtreetech/BIGTREETECH-SKR-mini-E3/tree/master/firmware/V2.0 | |
note that the zhoming firmware only works if you replace the z end switch with the bltouch, so we won't use that. | |
