Infinite Position Usage Instructions​

Infinite Position Usage Tips
  • Infinite position usage requires occupying a limit port; normally, the first drive position uses IO1, the second drive position uses IO2, and so on.
  • When using infinite positions, please ensure not to connect anything to the corresponding limit port.
  • For some FLY mainboards that are directly connected to the drive port, please check if DIAG is directly connected to the corresponding pin.
Infinite Position Usage Tips
  • To use TP5160 infinite position, the motherboard's DIAG jumper must be connected
  • The original endstop_pin: needs to be shielded or deleted, and add endstop_pin: tmc5160_stepper_x:virtual_endstop
  • After configuring diag1_pin:, the limit status is not triggered
  • Configuring driver_SGT: : requires testing an appropriate value by yourself
  • Reference Configuration
[stepper_x]
# endstop_pin:PF3
endstop_pin: tmc5160_stepper_x:virtual_endstop
homing_retract_dist: 0        # Retraction without changing to 0 may cause homing failure

[tmc5160 stepper_x]
diag1_pin: ^!
driver_SGT: 1

# Please ensure the limit status is not triggered after configuration
# This pin usually uses "^" prefix to enable internal pull-up
# Sensitivity is related to belt tightness and needs to be adjusted by yourself
# (Ensure that driver_SGTHRS is also set to an appropriate sensitivity)
