On my Tronxy P802E, a 5VDC active-lo signal is supplied via the board's own Z end stop header pin to the Z end stop frame mounted micro switch and signal is sent through the NO micro switch to the Z end stop ground pin of a Melzi 2.0 'TRONXY' variant silk screened as board version 5. The sensor offers sufficient sensitivity to operate with an aluminum bed and will allow for the use of a glass build plate.

For various reasons in my application I elected to use the following sensor:

I am reasonably convinced any combination of sensor be it PNP, NPN, NO or NC can be wired into a controller by use of various settings, voltage dividers, mosfets and/or diodes to make them operable. Additionally use of angles and curves allows it to be printed without the requirement for support material. The design also conforms to physical requirements of the carriage assembly my Tronxy P802E came with. With this design I am able to use the 8mm sensor with a glass build plate on the original supplied bed with minor allowances for it to clear the print.

This design allows for mounting the sensor in close proximity to the bed as aluminum used in the construction of the heated bed reduces the design range of the sensor considerably. Mount for an 8mm inductive sensor designed to fit a Tronxy P802E.Ī description on firmware set up and calibration is posted below the part description here.
