BL Touch and Makerfarm.

[Roxy]

As I go digging on the various dark corners of the internet, the BL Touch seems to get a *lot* of attention in terms of setting up the firmware. There are reams and reams of yack about this or that setting in this or that sub-sub-sub version of Marlin or some other firmware flavor.

Bob, if you load up the RC-8 (Release Candidate #8) of Marlin, there is an easy to configure BLTouch option. You pretty much just tell it you have a BLTouch, and give it the correct Offsets from the nozzle and you are done.

Since RC-8 is a few days(?) old, what's been posted over the last 12 months has been struggling with a variety of RC-X issues as well as basic "this is my first bed level" stuff. Hopefully the word will get out on RC-8 since it does indeed take care of roughly 95% of the stuff that has been posted with about three lines to modify.

Hi

Just went looking for some Marlin to play with. Maybe it's just my lack of search skill ... RC-8 did not appear to be anywhere I could find it.

Yeah... I apologize. Please grab the current contents of the https://github.com/MarlinFirmware/Marlin/tree/RCBugFix branch. For all practical purposes that IS RC-8. We just haven't checked with each other and all shaken our heads up and down. Trust me... That is so close to what RC-8 will be, it won't matter.
