New: Models Belt Holders + Washer

Material for X4-Base-microprobe-N:

  1. Nut M3 DIN934 …13pcs
  2. Nut M3x3             …2pcs   (Brass Heat Insert Nut Hot Melt)
  3. Screw M3x12 ISO 7380 ..4pcs (linear rail)
  4. Screw M3x12 DIN7991 .. 4pcs (belt holder)

For speed and acceleration I designed a new belt with a width of 7.7mm. Since the belt holder was not in the axis of the motor pulley, the positions (+1mm) of the holes for mounting on the linear guide were adjusted. Furthermore, the whole belt, if the head was stuck on both sides, was switched, so I added a washer for the linear guide.

With the author's consent, I corrected the model :   https://www.printables.com/model/930869-mount-microprobe-v2-for-the-artillery-x4-pro-plus/comments

This sensor is incredibly accurate which is why I used it in my upgrade.

I want to point out that the length of the cable up to the motherboard is 1.5m.  So you have to make it yourself. I inserted it into the main supply to the head of the cable extruder. You have to solder the JST 3pin 2.54mm connector into the board. The connection is in the link or in the attached photos.
In the next chapter I will describe how I fixed the cable so that it was not loose at the back. So if you remove the bottom plate, pull the cable outwards as much as possible (4-6cm) - picture.
There I also connected the ext USB for the camera - motherboard port. You need a USB 2.0 extension cable 70cm..unclip one end and insert a JST 2.0mm 4pin connector - see picture

Since you are changing belts, you must purchase a Resonance Compensation module. X4 plus S1 is included.  I don't know how S1 will improve me - belt width?https://vi.aliexpress.com/item/1005007636216840.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.40.12831802zt5Dab&gatewayAdapt=glo2vnm

I replaced the eMMC with a 32GB card + whith adapter USB 3.0

The instructions are on the artillery website and after flashing, don't forget to update the firmware to 1.5 (21Mb) because the image is from a year ago.

Artilleri X4 plus:  In the config I have to override the nozzle cleaning positions back by 10mm
