BLtouch alternative pin(s) #45

Hello all,

I purchased a S6 board (to replace my F6 board) and I would like to connect my BLtouch to the board. I unfortunately saw that the BLTtouch PWM connector should be connected to the Z-max pin. In normal operation, I use the Z-max endstop for homing. Therefore, I want to utilise both Z endstops (Z-min for BLtouch, Z-max for homing). Are there any alternative pins to connect my BLtouch PWM connector? If so, which pin do I need to assign to Servo0. In extend, if possible I would like to keep the 3 pin connector assembly (i.e. not connecting single BLtouch wires throughout the board).

The S6 V2.x board runs on Marlin 2.1.2.1 firmware.

Please let me know if you need any extra info.

Thanks in advance!

What I did is placing the BLTouch on the Ymin plug and then change the pin nr in the Pins file of the board. The Ymin plug also supports PWM and in my case I do not use the Ymin endstop.

In the end it would be much nicer to have a dedicated PWM header/connector like with the F6 board.
