Ender 5 BLtouch guide - Step by step for Marlin & TH3D

Описание: The Ender 5 is similar to the Ender 3 in many ways, including many people receiving theirs with warped beds. This BLtouch guide will take you through step by step on how to fit this very popular auto bed levelling probe. It covers printed parts, physical installation/wiring, firmchange changes and configuration.

This guide assumes you have already burned a bootloader:    • Ender 5 bootloader and Marlin update  

Since the TH3D version of Marlin now supports the BLtouch, I’ve covered this as well as vanilla Marlin. It is easier to setup but if you want to customise parameters it becomes harder.

I recommend purchasing a genuine BLtouch from Antclabs rather than a clone. Some people have success with the clones but many have issues and end up buying genuine anyway.

This guide should also work for Ender 3 with very minimal changes.
