Installation guide for Printers with BL Touch 3.1

1. Get the latest Marlin bugfix-2.0.x from the official site here: http://marlinfw.org/meta/download/.

2. Copy files from folder \Config_BLTouch31\Config_Files in this repository to the folder \Marlin in your firmware root folder.

3. Copy files from folder \Config_BLTouch31\Compiler_Settings in this repository to the your firmware root folder.

4. Copy files from folder \Config_BLTouch31\Pins_Files in this repository to the folder \Marlin\src\pins\stm32 in your firmware root folder.

5. Compile the software and flash the board.

6. Optional (add I2C EEPROM support): Edit \Marlin\src\pins\stm32\pins_BTT_SKR_PRO_V1_1.h in your firmware root folder and append the text from file that matches your EEPROM size: \I2C_EEPROM\I2C_4K_EEPROM.h or \I2C_EEPROM\I2C_32K_EEPROM.h.

7. Optional (applies to users with I2C EEPROM installed): Do a "Restore failsafe" from the printer's menu to make sure that the printer is running with the default values and avoid malfunction.

Connecting BL Touch to dedicated on-board header

Below is a picture showing where to connect BL Touch to use the dedicated on-board header. This not required but it leaves both Z end stops ports available if you want to repurpose it. In this case you also need to follow step 3 from the Installation guide for Printers with BL Touch 3.1.

Please note that the on-board header has only 4 pins and that the brown (or blue on some BL Touch kits from Creality) wire (Servo GND) from BL Touch cable is not connected. Also make sure sure that BL Touch it is configured in open drain mode.

Connecting an I2C EEPROM

Below is a picture showing where to connect an I2C EEPROM if you wish to save your printer settings in permanent storage.
