I found that someone has change the pinmap of the GRBL to give support for the laseraxe driver,

Has anyone successfully done this?

Yes, i use that information to upgrade my GRBL Firmware to 1.1e and works fine, but yo need to config some things as the internal pullups if you want to use hard limits in the axis, editing the files and compiling the code with arduino:

#define LIMIT_MASK ((1<<X_LIMIT_BIT)|(1<<Y_LIMIT_BIT)|(1<<Z_LIMIT_BIT)) // All limit bits

If you want to activate the heigh map in A5, you need to change this:

#define PROBE_MASK (1<<PROBE_BIT)

Later I change the speeds and the axis to work with my machine. I use to Control Software Candle v1.1.7 (For GRBL 1.1). I change all the things via Software. Now my config is this:

[CTRL+X] < Grbl 1.1e ['$' for help]

$1=255

$2=0

$3=4

ok

I did this for my personal use, but is very useful to know the Arduino Pins of this PCB

Thank you for sharing your grbl configuration, and the schematic image. I manage to make the motors work the new cpu_map, but it seams that my laser is not turning on. I believe that the laser pwm is connected to the analog pin11 right?

I am still unable to turn on the laser, everything else works fine, your configuration file is good!

This is my cpu_map, how is yours? what pin do you have the spindle?

Hello, I connect my spindle in the Laser & Motor Connector (Mandrino in my photo). I didn't check the pin because for me works. Sorry, but I Don't know how works the pwm output and the laser, because i don't have one.

This is my "cpu_map" for GRBL 1.1e:

I only modified the pins for the axis, enable the A5 for the height map, and i activated the internal pullups for the Hard Limit. Later i changed the direcction of the axis directly with Candle and adjust all the speeds and accelerations as the original laseraxe GRBL 0.8. My Spindle works perfectly when i send a M03 Command, and stops with M05.

Sorry if i can't help more, but i'm not an expert, i'm learnig how works GRBL since 2 months ago...
