A
bltouch.init()
at a time of low or unknown probe clearance (EVEN AT PRINTER POWERUP) is a risk and therefore, a deploy should be avoided because dragging the pin is possible: A deploy goes into alarm if it can't extend fully and then the subsqeuent stow will fail.So inside
bltouch.init()
, instead ofclear()
which translates toreset-stow-deploy-stow
it is better to just doreset-stow
.This (new similar) case is just one more (and hopefully the final one) of these cases where the use of
init()
is overkill or detrimental. See #13959 (BLTOUCH Less is as good).This one is so urgent that I didn't want to just add it to that PR. I think it needs reviewing separately and addressing a lot sooner.
