I hate to post what seems like a simple question, but I can’t get my probe to register. I have an inductive probe connected to a 5v regulator.
I need pin 1.28 to trigger when it goes high i believe. I can’t find anything about it.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
I’ve tried to do it manually with the positive side of the Zmin end stop with no luck.
I though the pulldown would do this, but that was unsuccessful as well.

Can we get more information about the probe, and about *exactly* how it is wired ?
Thanks.
The probe 12V output (black) is connected to the input side of a 7805 5v regulator.
When triggered 5v is coming from the output of the 7805 and connected to in 1.28 / zmin
I tested with a voltmeter and the 5v is present when triggered
I also bypassed all this and jumped the +5 of the zmin to the signal and it still did not register it.
I figured it out, sorry for posting too soon.
A little more research lead me to a page that suggested using another open pin because the end stops have built in pull up resistors on them.
It works perfect now.
Thank again
