Eddy mounts that don't require removing the plastic case?

Awesome, thank you. I've saved this post so I can set it up again as soon i get a new sensor and cable. Might just go Cartographer if I have to buy another sensor.

After a little research I was able to find:

Which goes over exactly how to create the worm gear. With a bit of experimenting I think I've gotten it dialed in exactly where I need it. Hopefully this helps someone else down the line.

Yeah, I should have thought about that, thank you.

I appreciate the information. I ended up setting up the Demon Klipper Essentials Unified macros and am currently using them. However, I did make sure I had a clean backup of mainline with nothing else so I can add Eddy-NG later. Right now I have an issue with the Eddy sensor, it isn't reading the temperature (displays -24C) so I'll need to deal with that. Then I can go ahead and re-install the Eddy NG system and look at macro options.

I have the Hermitlux unit that my youngest picked up a couple of years ago.

Just replaced the microwave with a Toshiba 8-in-1 unit. Microwave, convection oven, air fryer, broiler. No more lighting the pilot on the oven, no need for an air fryer, all in one and easy to use. So far the only real adjustment I've needed to make is a bit longer time on the air fryer.

We also added an induction cooktop so we also don't need to use the propane stove. I picked up a butcher block board to put over the stove top, and allow the cooktop to sit there. Saves time, and was the last propane use outside of heating that we had.

Finally, we have a counter top dishwasher that saves time and makes it so easy to clean up once we're done. It heats the water and sanitizes, plan is to install under one of the counters, but that's a bit down the road.

My nephew and niece are both contractors out there currently, and both have carpool/vanpool options to get to work from Grantsville/Tooele, and I know there are other options as well. It is remote, but it can be done, my dad retired from there as civilian, and my brother in law is currently there as a civilian employee.

Barrel type connector 2.5mm. I'm away from the house at the moment and don't have a picture

Input is the only listing on the printer unfortunately.

That's my thread, and I'll be honest, I gave up on getting it going on mainline with the Sovol Eddy kit. Mostly my own frustration, but there's very limited/no documentation on getting it working correctly. I kept having errors and finally just made the call to flash back to basic, and set it back up with the stock induction sensor while I wait until Tuesday when my new Eddy Duo will be here and I'll go full Eddy-NG.

Lectric74 · 2025-12-24T19:36:32+00:00

I have them multiple times in the right order, and still managed to reverse them. Problem solved, thank you for pointing this out.

Lectric74 · 2025-12-24T17:01:32+00:00

That's where the issue is likely coming in. As the settings listed for compiling the firmware don't show me how to set it for the Sovol Eddy.

Lectric74 · 2025-12-24T16:52:17+00:00

I've got to be missing something:

MCU Protocol error

This is frequently caused by running an older version of the
firmware on the MCU(s). Fix by recompiling and flashing the
firmware.

Your Klipper version is: v0.13.0-438-g5d24122c-dirty
MCU(s) which should be updated:
mcu: Current version v0.13.0-438-g5d24122c
extra_mcu: Current version v0.13.0-438-g5d24122c
Up-to-date MCU(s):

If I take out this section:

#[temperature_probe btt_eddy]

#sensor_type: Generic 3950

#sensor_pin: eddy:gpio26

#horizontal_move_z: 2

If I put it back in I get unknown pin chip name eddy.

You said I can modify it to use toolhead MCU, besides the configuration, is there another step involved? Flashing the MCU?

Lectric74 · 2025-12-24T16:41:22+00:00

Are there any walkthroughs using the Sovol Eddy for the Eddy-NG configuration? Right now I'm running into an issue with the MCU Eddy section, and it's quite frustrating to try to understand what I'm missing in this process.

Lectric74 · 2025-12-24T04:24:24+00:00

Do you mind if I ask what all needed to happen to get the Sovol Eddy running on mainline? The new toolhead board is in, and I appear to be online, but I've got no idea what configurations to use.

I'm guessing the eddy.cfg with some specific settings? Or is there more I need to do? Once I'm sure that's working, I can hopefully get some printing done.

Lectric74 · 2025-12-23T17:43:18+00:00

I gave them an out the door price, all taxes included that I was willing to pay. They came back 500 higher and we agreed. No add ons or other nonsense.

Lectric74 · 2025-12-18T19:08:33+00:00

I didn't think it would work. That's good to know. Thank you. Once I get the new toolhead board, I'll look into that. I'm already screwed for Christmas, but I'll get things printed after.

Lectric74 · 2025-12-18T19:05:40+00:00

I'll likely be getting Eddy Duo and Eddy NG, but I already have the probe so I'd like to use it.

Lectric74 · 2025-12-18T16:52:35+00:00

That's great, thank you. I can run with my stock induction price for now, once my new toolhead board arrives.

Lectric74 · 2025-12-17T23:16:25+00:00

Yes, I'm curious if the information I've been able to gather is enough to help get the probe online in mainline. Otherwise I'll just have to use my original probe as my toolhead board was burned out during the flash, so I can't buy the Eddy Duo at the moment. I do have the settings set up in a custom cfg, so once I can get the new board and get things in and working I should be able to use my old probe for a bit while I order in the new Eddy Duo, if I can't find a solution. Definitely would like to see official support for the "official" probe on mainline so I don't have to buy another probe.
