So I set up my Minion with the O2S Tool Board and have updated to the newest firmware, but it will only let me continue in the Configuater with the Beacon, It tells me "Alias "probe_pin" not found in toolboard pin definition" If I try to continue with the SuperPinda . How do I get the SuperPinda to work? I don't need the Beacon on my Minion and dont want to buy it for that reason.

Proceed with configurator with no probe defined and add it manually post-setup in printer.cfg
What would I add manually to my printer config ? Sorry trying to get better at this stuff
Is the superpinda connected per the guidance from the o2s manual?
Yes it is, I can not select "no probr defined" in the probe drop down, it makes me select something but only lets me continue with the beacon, or throws above mentioned error. I am not that good at Klipper
So where do you have it connected; I'm just noticing the o2s doesn't have a "traditional" probe input like other toolboards.
The I2C port
negative, that's not going to work.
Their documintation said that was what replaced the BL touch connection which was the same port previously I believe on the EBB 42
Can you show me where you see that?
Yea that's not what that means, they mean the old probe port is gone and now there's i2c instead, that's used for other fancy probes, afaik you can't just wire it up to an inductive probe.
Besides superpinda is 5V and you don't have 5V on the I2C port.
O2S is not amenable to "funny business" due to its excessive safety features - if it's not strictly laid out in the manual you're hosed.
Hey !!!! So I get to in fact spend more money, a beacon on the Minion is ridiculous but oh well, but thank you for the assist, I thought that was going to be the outcome
I just checked, I'm still the original author on the reprap wiki for my Z-probe article, from 2015. https://reprap.org/mediawiki/index.php?title=Z_probe&action=history
Been through this.
Thats all Japanese to me, I am getting better at reading Klipper and pinouts and the such but still have a way to go
I will say the beacon is super nice but probably excessive for the minion; I don't know what the "pedestrian" probe options are for o2s, that thing is weird...I wasn't super happy when I did a customer build with one, it's fine.
