Hello, This new forum is great
I look into this forums and many videos but I could find the exact wiring position, I have a MKS Gen L V1.4 (using Marlin/Ray firmware) and a cheap probe I bought for 5 bucks, the probe has two wires (probe and Alligator clip) the board has a Z- and Z+ slots with (S - +) pins, I have the stop end all in connect to (S and -).
1- Which pins and slot should I use Z- or Z+ ?
2- Probe and Alligator in which pin?
I got this code in the forum/thingiverse link so I have to insert this in the beginning of the g-code of the project? Z19.3 is the hight of the probe. It means every time I run a g-code I have to insert this lines?
Hi Jeffeb3, where should I find in the firmware G38.2 ? The M119 is to check if G38.2 is working? I could not find this command related to G38.2 in reprap webpage.
Hi there, back to home I install the probe in the Z (-/S) and I deleted the comments on this lines on the Dual End stops Firmware and got the errors below while compilation.
Blockquote
#define G38_PROBE_TARGET #if ENABLED(G38_PROBE_TARGET) #define G38_PROBE_AWAY // Include G38.4 and G38.5 to probe away from target #define G38_MINIMUM_MOVE 0.0275 // (mm) Minimum distance that will produce a move. #endif

When try to compile there are the bed error.

Hi Jeffeb3, just return… I uncomment both lines in Marlin, I was looking in other topics and found one with your answer:
you wrote ‘‘G92 Z1.4’’ for the height of the probe, in my case is 19.3mm. I can’t figure out where should I insert this value in Marlin?
Try to find youtube videos but no one specific to MPCN.
Have a look at the milling basics page. I have an example starting gcode in there. You can do it in the firmware but I prefer being able to easily change it per job.
