    TB 6560 (ebay) 3axis probe for z plate

    I have that board and I use the XYZ limits (configure as NC) and the Estop
    I would like to add Zero plate but I don't know where there is another Input header for the zero plate ...
    I was reading the board documentations and they said that pin 15 is an input too however how would I connect to it to give mach3 macro an input...
    there is 4pin header designated as: 16,gnd,gnd,17 --but those are output pins according to mach3 :nono: however I did read that one can configure those pin as an input according to the parallel port DB25 standards.


    Crap... all I wanted is just a zero plat...any ideas will be welcome

    Neric,

    Is it possible for you to post a link for the manual for your driver board?

    With a bit more information I may be able to help.

    Cool

    It was solved by soldering the probe wire to the open pad that is connected directly to pin 15 of the DB-25 on the driver board.

    I was wondering if you were able to solve the problem of adding a probe? I have the same board.

    Thank you
