Greetings all; I am trying to install a BLTouch kit in an Ender-3 3d printer.
The BLTouch is a gismo that touches the printers bed and records for later correction, any errors in the bed leveling, a very important item in a 3d printer. This kit has a very sparsely described installation proceedure which includes a usb to hid/spi interface that plugs into a 6 pin interface socket on the printers control board. With only a 2 foot cable. :( Its also written assuming a windows computer is available. Which there is not at this linux only location. dmesg reports it like this on a stretch machine. [1543461.117873] snd_hda_codec_hdmi hdaudioC0D2: HDMI: pin nid 7 not registered [1543491.958435] usb 1-12.4.1.3: new low-speed USB device number 81 using xhci_hcd [1543492.184129] usb 1-12.4.1.3: New USB device found, idVendor=03eb, idProduct=c8b4, bcdDevice= 1.00 [1543492.184136] usb 1-12.4.1.3: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=0 [1543492.184140] usb 1-12.4.1.3: Product: USBHID [1543492.184143] usb 1-12.4.1.3: Manufacturer: zhifengsoft And duplicates this on a buster machine except for the obvious changes in the usb bus address. The windows .exe program used to run this thing which is called a burner, is "progisp.exe". It looks as if dfu-programmer might work, but I just went to a buster machine and installed dfu-* but the --targets listing output does not include this particular ATmega1284p chip. Is there a newer version of dfu-programmer that does work with this programmer and chip? Or do I have to round up a windoze box and hope it comes with a recent copy of progisp.exe? Thanks all.
