    BlTouch on Hictop Prusa i3

    Hello,
    I've installed the sensor and updated the firmware to marlin 1.1.8. However, when i try the auto bed level, it crashes on the bed.
    Also, when i manually move my Z axis 1mm, it moves a lot more (+- 8mm).
    The white and black are plugged in to the Z- socket and the other 3 on the D11 pins.
    I've asked hictop to send me the original firmware but, haven't heard anything from them.
    Board is MPX.3

    I can't attach a zip of my firmware configs. Ask for parts of it and i'll provide it.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated

    Hello;

    Hictop software can be downloaded from the Hictop's web Page. Under the Tab "Download" drop down box "Firmware, Software" Then select the printer you have for the download.

    I have setup all versions of Marlin 1.1.X for 3DP11 and 3DP12 Aluminum Frame though do not have a BL-Touch I use a TL-W3MC2
    If you need help with Marlin I could assist.

    Thanks for the info, i've replaced the firmware with the one from the one i downloaded from the hictop site and was able to fix the Z motion so it now moves correctly.
    I can't seem to be able to upload a zip from my marlin 1.1.8 firmware folder but, i've put my configuration.h file into a txt that i'm attaching here.
    If you have any pointers, it would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks

    I do not see a Marlin 1.1.8 Configuration.h file attached file is for a much older version.

    Try This " https://drive.google.com/open?id=1Gh...ibTgbl5ZUd1XAw "

    Compiles With Arduino 1.8.4

    Home the printer... And then lower the nozzle .1mm at a time until the nozzle touches the bed. If your LCD Display says the Z axis is not at 0.000 mm, you need to add the stated Z value to your Z_PROBE_OFFSET value.
