I’m getting an issue with my plus4 after installing the beacon mod and following the GitHub to get it running I will include the logs I have. I’m expecting to turn on my printer and not get this error. I’ve gone through the GitHub and the cfg but don’t see what could cause this. When I get back Sunday I plan to fix it so having any help will be nice as I don’t know what I’m missing.

Damn benchy I can’t believe you’ve done this to me
Maybe check the pinout for the beacon probe against the pinout for the original (electrical diagram)
It's saying pins aren't specified in the config file i think, so the pinout might be different? 🤔
Maybe? But it’s the revH like the git and the error is for the smart_effector section which was just there in the cfg before adding beacon. I’ll start there when I get back tho just to make sure

I mean...what does your "smart_effector" section in the config say?
It’s commented out. As far as I know from reading the git it’s supposed to be
did you comment out every line or just the section name?
Every line I wanted to be sure since it said the entire section of the config
I tried just uncommenting the pin but that just read klippy not ready until I changed it back
Then probably something else in the config wants to have this line present and throws the error
Hmmm
Then I’ll have to search what else needs smart effector to run and see what I can do about it

I looked into that smart effector pin and it doesn’t go to anything else
I’m not sure. I’m home and double checking the git wiki now
Just went through the wiki I double checked everything in the printer.cfg area where my error is originating from and nothing
I’ve done everything there is for there I’m checking his cfg now
That pin isn’t specified anywhere else in the cfg’s
this is now solved,
## [smart_effector]
## z_offset = -0.090
this is at the bottom of you .cfg file, deleting it removed this final error and it is running. I will not close this yet as I haven't calibrated yet and may come into another issue
I have come into another issue but it is just mesh max. I will update this when that is complete and close this thread for anyone in the future who stumbles upon it

Update: the mesh max with my specific mount is 270x270. After you finish initial install delete smart_effector and z offset lines you see above located at the bottom of the config, other than that follow the wiki and the beacon quick start guide
