BLtouch deploying but not triggering
Hi, i tried to verify the BLtouch as required in the initial config.
The wiring should be correct for the Octopus 1.1:
Brown-Red-Yellow-Black-White
I buzzed them trough and they all have connection, the connector is the wrong type (JST-XH instead of Futaba servo connectors), because i thought it would go on the connector directly to its side. But the BTT product wiki page shows that the free standing pins are the correct position.
The probe deploys properly but during the sensor pin test in the klipper documentation it doesnt show "probe: open" and "probe: triggered".
If the pin is down and should show "probe: open" it shows "probe: triggered" instead. Using the
[bltouch]
pin_up_touch_mode_reports_triggered: false
in the user overrides section of the printer.cfg doesnt invert the output!
Someone on Reddit said to switch the black and white wire but then it just outputs "probe: open" what ever the position.
So i have no idea what i could try, if needed i can upload a small matrix i did for testing!
I tried to be as scientific as possible but have no idea what else to do...
Thanks in advance to anybody who wants to give it a shot!
Update:
I change to Futaba 5 Pin servo connectors. Nothing changed
I tried homing normally and it gave that error:
"BLTouch failed to verify sensor state"
So yeah now i even have less of an idea...
