Overview
This page covers any general information for the Fly-SB2040 Pro Max V3 toolboard.
It is currently available through AliExpress.
This toolboard is only supported from firmware version 3.5.0-RC4 and above.
The Fly-SB2040 Pro Max V3 is the second RP2040 based toolboard compatible with both Duet 3 boards and STM32H723, STM32H743 and STM32F4 boards with spican modules.
There are 6 versions of the Fly-SB2040-v3. Only the Max and Pro Max support RRF.

Fan Voltage
The fan voltage can be set using jumpers and/or switches to either 5v and Vin.
io2.in Diode
If using io2.in with a simple switch, turn switch 2 to ON (up) on the 8 DIP switches. Make sure switch 2 is OFF (down) if using any electronic probes such as an inductive or optical sensor.
CAN Termination
If using a single toolboard, make sure switch 1 on the 8 DIP switches is ON (up), as indicated on the pinout.
If using multiple toolboards, only the last toolboard should have CAN termination enabled.
PT1000 Support
The hotend temperature sensor input support PT1000. When using one, make sure the PT1000 jumper is installed. Make sure it is removed when using a standard thermistor.
Also make sure you define the resistor value as R1000 in your M308 command.
You can also use the MAX31865 to connect a PT1000.
Initial Firmware Installation
The board that you will receive does come with firmware installed. It is suggested that you reflash the latest firmware anyway as the board you receive may have an older version of the firmware installed.
Download the file called Duet3Firmware_SB2040PROMAX3.uf2 from here.
To install the firmware, whilst holding the reset button, plug the Fly-SB2040 Pro Max V3 into your PC and drag and drop the .uf2 file onto the rpi drive that appears.
Follow the CAN Connection instructions to continue.
Updating the Toolboard Firmware from 3.5.0-RC4 Onwards
Using DWC, upload the latest firmware file to the system tab. Once uploaded, send M997 B124 and it will update (This assumes your board is the default CAN address 124, change the address in the command if necessary). The updating time (around a minute or two) is longer on RP2040 based toolboards so be patient.
