[FR] (BLTOUCH MENU) #17

Description

Bltouch Control Menu

Hello firstly English is my not native language so I am sorry for my bad sentences. I am using smith firmware for a while and I think it is the best firmware in my tried ones. But I think there should be a bltouch menu for alarm release, push pin up or down for bltouch calibration (I think it was on bltouch v2.0 but I am not sure). Some times when I start my printer bltouch does not launch very well and it goes alarm mode so I have to restart my printer or connect usb for send necessary gcodes. If there will be a bltouch menu these options wont be necessary so we can release alarm in printer's menu. I used a different rom and it has menu. I tried to move necessery codes from dwin.cpp and dwin.h but I could not do it. Maybe you can copy necessary codes from these files. Thank you for your effords.

Here is files from my google drive. Codes are not belongs to me but creator said they are open for use.

@ruredi87 The BL Touch is sometimes flaky and the probe decides not to deploy on initial startup and causes this issue. I do not believe it has anything to do with firmware @smith3d ... i have done 2 things to alleviate this problem. (1) Loosen the nex set screw on top of the BLTouch a little, and (2) Manually (with power on or off) pull the probe down gently with your fingers as i believe it is possible it just gets stuck sometimes. As far as the menu you are talking about, i have never seen one for the creality Ender 3 series.
