Release for the Printrbot Simple Metal, model 1403 - with induction sensor for Z endstop

IMPORTANT NOTE: This release makes changes to the motor direction as compared to previous versions (see Motor wire orientation, below). Unless you are directed to use this release, you may want to use a prior release to avoid having to flip motor connections. If you do use this release, please test manual movements carefully to confirm proper operation of each axis and extruder.

NOTE: This firmware will work with ANY Printrbot with an induction sensor AND the Y endstop physically located at maximum. Older bots may have the Y endstop installed at the Y minimum location. You can manually reconfigure your stepps per mm manually (M92) and the build dimensions (M211). More info here-- https://printrbot.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/202227454

Stock equipment:

GT2 belts and pulleys

Direct Drive Extruder

Build Dimensions X 150mm , Y 150mm , Z 150mm

Home is at X,Z minimums and Y maximum (top left)

Motor wire orientation:
