Tool length sensor and touch probe with Mesa7i76e

Looks like a few issues there, thanks for that tip. This "toolnumber = 0 False" might be the issue?

Can you zip up the config folder and attach it?

I will do. Out of the house dropping off some joeys, for pre-release, at the moment.

I think I managed it remotely through my phone remoting through 2 computers

Not sure that worked, when I checked the file I could not open it. Here is another one I created on my windows computer

@andypugh ,

I found a GITHUB fork for the Probe Screen with post 2.8 amendments ( github.com/GuiHue/probe_screen_v2 ) and installed that onto an old backup (pre installing a Z touch off plate (which I think may have been causing some issues too)), I gave it a quick try out and it seems to be doing the tool change correctly, though it did throw some "Exceed Z Max errors), which i think I had to correct previously due to my Z axis home at the top and all absolute moves being negative.

For everybody else who can not make this example work, there is a typo in the add command.

Thanks, fixed.

I will beat myself later.

Need help ?

Copy/paste error???

Original post has probe-in connected to both .in0 and .in1. I think you want tool-length connected to .in1.
