+## Load Cell Probe Safety
+
+Because load cells are a direct nozzle contact probe there is a risk of
+damage to your printer if too much force is used. The load cell probing system
+includes a number of safety checks that try to keep your machine safe from
+excessive force to the toolhead. It's important to understand what they are
+and how they work as you can defeat most of them with poorly chosen config
+values.
+
+#### Calibration Check
+Every time a homing move starts, load_cell_probe checks
+that the load_cell is calibrated. If not it will stop the move with an error:
+`!! Load Cell not calibrated`.
+
+#### `counts_per_gram`
+This setting is used to convert raw sensor counts into grams. All the safety
+limits are in gram units for your convenience. If the `counts_per_gram`
+setting is not accurate you can easily exceed the safe force on the toolhead.
+You should never guess this value. Use `LOAD_CELL_CALIBRATE` to find your load
+cells actual `counts_per_gram`.
+
+#### `trigger_force`
+This is the force in grams that triggers the endstop to halt the homing move.
+When a homing move starts the endstop tares itself with the current reading
+from the load cell. `trigger_force` is measured from that tare value. There is
+always some overshoot of this value when the probe collides with the bed,
+so be conservative. e.g. a setting of 100g could result in 350g of peak force
+before the toolhead stops. This overshoot will increase with faster probing
+`speed`, a low ADC sample rate or [multi MCU homing](Multi_MCU_Homing.md).
+
+#### `reference_tare_counts`
+This is the baseline tare value that is set by `LOAD_CELL_CALIBRATE`.
+This value works with `force_safety_limit` to limit the maximum force on the
+toolhead.
+
+#### `force_safety_limit`
+This is the maximum absolute force, relative to `reference_tare_counts`,
+that the probe will allow while homing or probing. If the MCU sees this
+force exceeded it will shut down the printer with the error `!! Load cell
+endstop: too much force!`. There are a number of ways this can be triggered:
+
+The first risk this protects against is picking too large of a value for
+`drift_filter_cutoff_frequency`. This can cause the drift filter to filter out
+a probe event and continue the homing move. If this happens the
+`force_safety_limit` acts as a backup protection.
+
+The second problem is probing repeatedly in one place. Klipper does not retract
+the probe when doing a single `PROBE` command. This can result
+in force applied to the toolhead at the end of a probing cycle. Because
+external forces can vary greatly between probing locations,
+`load_cell_probe` performs a tare before beginning each probe. If you repeat
+the `PROBE` command, load_cell_probe will tare the endstop at the current force.
+Multiple cycles of this will result in ever-increasing force on the toolhead.
+`force_safety_limit` stops this cycle from running out of control.
+
+Another way this run-away can happen is damage to a strain gauge. If the metal
+part is permanently bent it wil change the `reference_tare_counts` of the
+device. This puts the starting tare value much closer to the limit making it
+more likely to be violated. You want to be notified if this is happening
+because your hardware has been permanently damaged.
+
+The final way this can be triggered is due to temperature changes. If your
+strain gauges are heated their `reference_tare_counts` may be very different
+at ambient temperature vs operating temperature. In this case you may need
+to increase the `force_safety_limit` to allow for thermal changes.
+
+#### Load Cell Endstop Watchdog Task
+When homing the load_cell_endstop starts a task on the MCU to trac
+measurements arriving from the sensor. If the sensor fails to send
+measurements for 2 sample periods the watchdog will shut down the printer
+with an error `!! LoadCell Endstop timed out waiting on ADC data`.
+
+If this happens, the most likely cause is a fault from the ADC. Inadequate
+grounding of your printer can be the root cause. The frame, power supply
+case and pint bed should all be connected to ground. You may need to ground
+the frame in multiple places. Anodized aluminum extrusions do not conduct
+electricity well. You might need to sand the area where the grounding wire
+is attached to make good electrical contact.
+
+## Load Cell Probe Setup
+
+This section covers the process for commissioning a load cell probe.
+
+### Verify the Load Cell First
+
+A `[load_cell_probe]` is also a `[load_cell]` and G-code commands related to
+`[load_cell]` work with `[load_cell_probe]`. Before attempting to use a load
+cell probe, follow the directions for
+[calibrating the load cell](Load_Cell.md#calibrating-a-load-cell) with
+`CALIBRATE_LOAD_CELL` and checking its operation with `LOAD_CELL_DIAGNOSTIC`.
+
+### Verify Probe Operation With LOAD_CELL_TEST_TAP
+
+Use the command `LOAD_CELL_TEST_TAP` to test the operation of the load cell
+probe before actually trying to probe with it. This command detects taps,
+just like the PROBE command, but it does not move the z axis. By default, it
+listens for 3 taps before ending the test. You have 30 seconds to do each
+tap, if no taps are detected the command will time out.
+
+If this test fails, check your configuration and `LOAD_CELL_DIAGNOSTIC`
+carefully to look for issues.
+
+Load cell probes don't support the `QUERY_ENDSTOPS` or `QUERY_PROBE`
+commands. Use `LOAD_CELL_TEST_TAP` for testing functionality before probing.
+
+### Homing Macros
+
+Load cell probe is not an endstop and doesn't support `endstop:
+prove:z_virtual_endstop`. For the time being you'll need to configure your z
+axis with an MCU pin as its endstop. You won't actually be using the pin but
+for the time being you have to configure something.
+
+To home the axis with just the probe you need to set up a custom homing
+macro. This requires setting up
+[homing_override](Config_Reference.md#homing_override).
+
+Here is a simple macro that can accomplish this. Note that the
+`_HOME_Z_FROM_LAST_PROBE` macro has to be separate because of the way macros
+work. The sub-call is needed so that the `_HOME_Z_FROM_LAST_PROBE` macro can
+see the result of the probe in `printer.probe.last_z_result`.
+
+```gcode
+[gcode_macro _HOME_Z_FROM_LAST_PROBE]
+gcode:
+    {% set z_probed = printer.probe.last_z_result %}
+    {% set z_position = printer.toolhead.position[2] %}
+    {% set z_actual = z_position - z_probed %}
+    SET_KINEMATIC_POSITION Z={z_actual}
+
+[gcode_macro _HOME_Z]
+gcode:
+    SET_GCODE_OFFSET Z=0  # load cell probes dont need a Z offset
+    # position toolhead for homing Z, edit for your printers size
+    #G90  # absolute move
+    #G1 Y50 X50 F{5 * 60}  # move to X/Y position for homing
+
+    # soft home the z axis to its limit so it can be moved:
+    SET_KINEMATIC_POSITION Z={printer.toolhead.axis_maximum[2]}
+
+    # Fast approach and tap
+    PROBE PROBE_SPEED={5 * 60}  # override the speed for faster homing
+    _HOME_Z_FROM_LAST_PROBE
+
+    # lift z to 2mm
+    G91  # relative move
+    G1 Z2 F{5 * 60}
+
+    # probe at standard speed
+    PROBE
+    _HOME_Z_FROM_LAST_PROBE
+
+    # lift z to 10mm for clearance
+    G91  # relative move
+    G1 Z10 F{5 * 60}
+```
+
+### Suggested Probing Temperature
+
+Currently, we suggest keeping the nozzle temperature below the level that causes
+the filament to ooze while homing and probing. 140C is a good starting
+point. This temperature is also low enough not to scar PEI build surfaces.
+
+Fouling of the nozzle and the print bed due to oozing filament is the #1 source
+of probing error with the load cell probe. Klipper does not yet have a universal
+way to detect poor quality taps due to filament ooze. The existing code may
+decide that a tap is valid when it is of poor quality. Classifying these poor
+quality taps is an area of active research.
+
+Klipper also lacks support for re-locating a probe point if the
+location has become fouled by filament ooze. Modules like `quad_gantry_level`
+will repeatedly probe the same coordinates even if a probe previously failed
+there.
+
+Give the above it is strongly suggested not to probe at printing temperatures.
+
+### Hot Nozzle Protection
+
+The Voron project has a great macro for protecting your print surface from the
+hot nozzle. See [Voron Tap's
+`activate_gcode`](https://github.com/VoronDesign/Voron-Tap/blob/main/config/tap_klipper_instructions.md)
+
+It is highly suggested to add something like this to your config.
+
+### Nozzle Cleaning
+
+Before probing the nozzle should be clean. You could do this manually before
+every print. You can also implement a nozzle scrubber and automate the process.
+Here is a suggested sequence:
+
+1. Wait for the nozzle to heat up to probing temp (e.g. `M109 S140`)
+1. Home the machine (`G28`)
+1. Scrub the nozzle on a brush
+1. Heat soak the print bed
+1. Perform probing tasks: QGL, bed mesh etc.
+
+### Temperature Compensation for Nozzle Growth
+
+If you are probing at a safe temperature, the nozzle will expand after
+heating to printing temperatures. This will cause the nozzle to get longer
+and closer to the print surface. You can compensate for this with
+[[z_thermal_adjust]](Config_Reference.md#z_thermal_adjust). This adjustment will
+work across a range of printing
+temperatures from PLA to PC.
+
+#### Calculating the `temp_coeff` for `[z_thermal_adjust]`
+
+The easiest way to do this is to measure at 2 different temperatures.
+Ideally these should be the upper and lower limits of the printing
+temperature range. E.g. 180C and 290C. You can perform a `PROBE_ACCURACY` at
+both temperatures and then calculate the difference of the `average z` at both.
+
+The adjustment value is the change in nozzle length divided by the change in
+temperature. e.g.
+
+```
+temp_coeff = -0.05 / (290 - 180) = -0.00045455
+```
+
+The expected result is a negative number. Positive values for `temp_coeff` move
+the nozzle closer to the bed and negative values move it further away.
+Expect to have to move the nozzle further away as it gets longer when hot.
+
+#### Configure `[z_thermal_adjust]`
+Set up z_thermal_adjust to reference the `extruder` as the source of temperature
+data. E.g.:
+
+```
+[z_thermal_adjust nozzle]
+temp_coeff=-0.00045455
+sensor_type: temperature_combined
+sensor_list: extruder
+combination_method: max
+min_temp: 0
+max_temp: 400
+max_z_adjustment: 0.1
+```
+
+## Continuous Tare Filters for Toolhead Load Cells
+
+Klipper implements a configurable IIR filter on the MCU to provide continuous
+tareing of the load cell while probing. Continuous taring means the 0 value
+moves with drift caused by external factors like bowden tubes and thermal
+changes. This is aimed at toolhead sensors and moving beds that experience lots
+of external forces that change while probing.
+
+### Installing SciPy
+
+The filtering code uses the excellent [SciPy](https://scipy.org/) library to
+compute the filter coefficients based on the values your enter into the config.
+
+Pre-compiled SciPi builds are available for Python 3 on 32 bit Raspberry Pi
+systems. 32 bit + Python 3 is strongly recommended because it will streamline
+your installation experience. It does work with Python 2 but installation can
+take 30+ minutes and require installing additional tools.
+
+```bash
+~/klippy-env/bin/pip install scipy
+```
+
+### Filter Workbench
+
+The filter parameters should be selected based on drift seen on the printer
+during normal operation. A Jupyter notebook is provided in scripts,
+[filter_workbench.ipynb](../scripts/filter_workbench.ipynb), to perform a
+detailed investigation with real captured data and FFTs.
+
+### Filtering Suggestions
+
+For those just trying to get a filter working follow these suggestions:
+
+* The only essential option is `drift_filter_cutoff_frequency`. A conservative
+  starting value is `0.5`Hz. Prusa shipped the MK4 with a setting of `0.8`Hz and
+  the XL with `11.2`Hz. This is probably a safe range to experiment with. This
+  value should be increased only until normal drift due to bowden tube force is
+  eliminated. Setting this value too high will result in slow triggering and
+  excess force going through the toolhead.
+* Keep `trigger_force` low. The default is `75`g. The drift filter keeps the
+  internal grams value very close to 0 so a large trigger force is not needed.
+* Keep `force_safety_limit` to a conservative value. The default value is 2Kg
+  and should keep your toolhead safe while experimenting. If you hit this limit
+  the `drift_filter_cutoff_frequency` value may be too high.
+
+## Suggestions for Load Cell Tool Boards
+
+This section covers suggestions for those developing toolhead boards that want
+to support [load_cell_probe]
+
+### ADC Sensor Selection & Board Development Hints
+
+Ideally a sensor would meet these criteria:
+
+* At least 24 bits wide
+* Use SPI communications
+* Has a pin can be used to indicate sample ready without SPI communications.
+  This is often called the "data ready" or "DRDY" pin. Checking a pin is much
+  faster than running an SPI query.
+* Has a programmable gain amplifier gain setting of 128. This should eliminate
+  the need for a separate amplifier.
+* Indicates via SPI if the sensor has been reset. Detecting resets avoids
+  timing errors in homing and using noisy data at startup. It can also help
+  users
+  track down wiring and grounding issues.
+* A selectable sample rate between 350Hz and 2Khz. Very high sample rates don't
+  turn out to be beneficial in our 3D printers because they produce so much
+  noise
+  when moving fast. Sample rates below 250Hz will require slower probing speeds.
+  They also increase the force on the toolhead due to longer delays between
+  measurements. E.g. a 500Hz sensor moving at 5mm/s has the same safety factor
+  as
+  a 100Hz sensor moving at only 1mm/s.
+* If designing for under-bed applications, and you want to sense multiple load
+  cells, use a chip that can sample all of its inputs simultaneously. Multiplex
+  ADCs that require switching channels have a settling of several samples after
+  each channel switch making them unsuitable for probing applications.
+
+Implementing support for a new sensor chip is not particularly difficult with
+Klipper's `bulk_sensor` and `load_cell_endstop` infrastructure.
+
+### 5V Power Filtering
+
+It is strongly suggested to use larger capacitors than specified by the ADC chip
+manufacturer. ADC chips are usually targeted at low noise environments, like
+battery powered devices. Sensor manufacturers suggested application notes
+generally assume a quiet power supply. Treat their suggested capacitor values as
+minimums.
+
+3D printers put huge amounts of noise onto the 5V bus and this can ruin the
+sensor's accuracy. Test the sensor on the board with a typical 3D printer power
+supply and active stepper drivers before deciding on smoothing capacitor sizes.
+
+### Grounding & Ground Planes
+
+Analog ADC chips contain components that are very vulnerable to noise and
+ESD. A large ground plane on the first board layer under the chip can help with
+noise. Keep the chip away from power sections and DC to DC converters. The board
+should have proper grounding back to the DC supply.
+
+### HX711 and HX717 Notes
+
+This sensor is popular because of its low cost and availability in the
+supply chain. However, this is a sensor with some drawbacks:
+
+* The HX71x sensors use bit-bang communication which has a high overhead on the
+  MCU. Using a sensor that communicates via SPI would save resources on the tool
+  board's CPU.
+* The HX71x lacks a way to communicate reset events to the MCU. Klipper detects
+  resets with a timing heuristic but this is not ideal. Resets indicate a
+  problem with wiring or grounding.
+* For probing applications the HX717 version is strongly preferred because
+  of its higher sample rate (320 vs 80). Probing speed on the HX711 should be
+  limited to less than 2mm/s.
+* The sample rate on the HX71x cannot be set from klipper's config. If you have
+  the 10SPS version of the sensor (which is widely distributed) it needs to
+  be physically re-wired to run at 80SPS.
