Z Probe is not reacting at all. #440

I purchased a z-axis probe for the Makerbase DLC32 v2.1 board: t.ly/3bFiv

I wired it like this: probeWiring

Running on a 24volt power supply.

My default firmware V2.10(8M.H35.20200621) W T:35config is: $$ $0=10 $1=25 $2=0 $3=6 $4=0 $5=1 $6=1 $10=1 $11=0.010 $12=0.002 $13=0 $20=1 $21=1 $22=1 $23=3 $24=300.000 $25=2500.000 $26=250.000 $27=1.000 $28=1000.000 $30=1000.000 $31=0.000 $32=1 $38=1 $40=1 $100=80.000 $101=80.000 $102=80.000 $103=100.000 $104=100.000 $105=100.000 $110=9000.000 $111=9000.000 $112=3000.000 $113=1000.000 $114=1000.000 $115=1000.000 $120=500.000 $121=500.000 $122=500.000 $123=200.000 $124=200.000 $125=200.000 $130=1574.000 $131=1524.000 $132=250.000 $133=300.000 $134=300.000 $135=300.000

If I change $6 = 0

and run: G38.2 Z-200 F500 ALARM:4 Probe fail. The probe is not in the expected initial state before starting probe cycle, where G38.2 and G38.3 is not triggered and G38.4 and G38.5 is triggered.

Set $6 = 1 again and I get: G38.2 Z-200 F500 [MSG:Found] ALARM:5 Probe fail. Probe did not contact the workpiece within the programmed travel for G38.2 and G38.4. [PRB:0.000,0.000,0.000:0] ok

With this last command the probe does settle on the piece but the system does not set it and continues to depress the plunger until I stop it well after the point it should have tripped the sensor.

What don't I understand here? Why would this not work.

I reconnected the wire plug ends that plug into the board to be sure there was no problem with the connection. Now I am getting: G38.2 Z-200 F500

[MSG:Found] [PRB:1.000,1.000,-33.862:1] ok [MSG:Flame err!Please restart the machine] ALARM:3 Reset while in motion. Grbl cannot guarantee position. Lost steps are likely. Re-homing is highly recommended.

Actually the [MSG:Flame err!Please restart the machine] is not reappearing after I restarted the machine so it is likely unrelated.
