Hello,

I just receive my A30M.

Does anyone have a photo on how to install the 3D touch et how to connect it.

I only found information about A20M but nothing for A30M and its really différent.

Regards,

Thanks William,

But I really need a photo for a A30M.

It looks like the wires of the 3DTouch are too short to be connected

There is certainly something I doing wrong but I dont find it

There were no instructions supplied with the 3D Touch when it arrived with my new A30M.
Is it possible you can provide an image of the 3D Touch installed on the head? I have just installed the 3D Touch on my A30M and the wires seem very tight.

I'm not sure how high to adjust the sensor either. What height should the 3D Touch pin be in relation to the nozzle?

My wires are too short as well to connect to the board. Did you have to make your own extension cords?

Thanks, Marius

never mind. Had the bracket upside down and managed to get the cable to fit :)

I connected the cable first and then fixed the bracket

I have near given up on trying to get the 3D Touch to work on my A30M. I have had to bend the 3-D touch pin back into shape twice after it collided with the side of the bed. I haven’t been able to find a YouTube that shows the latest A30M auto-level software update and how to configure autoleveling. The manual doesn’t provide step by step guidance on how to set it up. We are all relying on forums to try to help each other out which seems crazy. I bought this printer because of this functionality which is sadly letting many of us down. I’m scared to try anything as it keeps trying to drive the hot end through the build plate. :(
