BLTouch with LDO Nighthawk SB?

[kharrisma]

Hey Forum Folke,

Nearing completion of my switch from a Hero Me printhead to the Voron Stealthburner.  Currrent ABL probe is a BLTouch, which as likely everyone here knows is a five-wire device: three servo, and two for the actual Z limit 'switch.'  Rather than re-inventing the wheel, I thought I'd check and see if anyone here has successfully managed to get a BLTouch to work with the LDO Nitehawk SB.  Obviously not going to be a straight plug-in and go; looks like some remapping of GPIO pins is going to be involved... more new territory for me    Any ideas appreciated!

Just came across this & wondered how you did. I setup a Nitehawk-36 on a Mercury conversion for Ender 5+. I couldn't find an easy way to map the BLT signals, so I ran a composite cable along with the USB connection. The BLT uses a few mAmp so my cable is a 3-conductor 26ga affair that's tied to the Nitehawk cable. Power comes from the empty socket on the Nitehawk. I know.... Kinda defeats the purpose of the conversion in the first place, but it was simple and works, and the cable has minimal mass and is very flexible. Sorry, best I can offer
