Mounting
the EZABL™
Pro Sensor to your printer
Now that we have the wiring completed and verified that your printer is seeing the sensor
correctly it is time to mount the sensor on your machine. In the Unified Firmware package that
we downloaded earlier there is a folder called
“
EZABL STL Files
”
, all mounts are in here.
Install the sensor mount for your machine and place the sensor in the mount where it is higher
than the nozzle, we will adjust this in the next step. Use the sensor nuts to secure the sensor in
the hotend mount. Use the included zip ties to secure the sensor wire to your hotend wires.
When you route the wire for your sensor so NOT create a pinch point with a zip tie where the
wire will be bending back and forth while the print head is moving. This will internally break the
wires on the cable and the sensor will no longer work.
Leave some slack do NOT make a “loop”
with the wire. Install the sensor wire exactly as seen in the picture below, notice the curve of
the wire to the sensor top. This is what you want to see when you secure the wire. See
appendix for example of what NOT to do when installing the sensor wire.
Zip Tie/Wire Strain Notes
Do NOT overtighten the zip ties as you can damage your printer wiring and/or the EZABL™
Pro sensor wire. Damaged wires due to excessive zip tie force and/or improper strain relief
are not covered under warranty. See above picture for proper cable routing.
