+# Details about my Sapphire Pro
+
+My Sapphire Pro runs the MKS Robin Nano 1.2 board. Details on that board (pinouts, diagrams, etc) are here:
+
+[https://github.com/makerbase-mks/MKS-Robin-Nano-V1.X/wiki/Wiring_Pinout_and_Size](https://github.com/makerbase-mks/MKS-Robin-Nano-V1.X/wiki/Wiring_Pinout_and_Size
+)
+
+## TMC2209 drivers
+
+I've installed TMC2209 drivers and wired all their UARTs up to the same pin, PA13, as recommended [in this GitHub issue](https://github.com/Klipper3d/klipper/issues/4779). Their addresses for X, Y, Z, and E are 0, 1, 2, and 3, respectively. It doesn't work with Klipper, I'm only getting the error message `TMC stepper_x failed to init: Unable to read tmc uart 'stepper_x' register IFCNT`. Nothing I've tried has worked, the last resort is setting the baud rate to 19200. If you managed to make this work, please email me.
+
+## SFS 2.0 filament motion runout sensor
+
+I've installed the SFS 2.0 motion runout sensor on MT_DET1 and MT_DET2. This means that the motion sensor pin is PE6, and the switch sensor is PA4. That doesn't work either, Marlin keeps thinking the printer has run out of filament.

+# Info on various hardware components
+
+I bought various components from AliExpress, and sometimes they lack info. I've added info about them here:
+
+## USB-C decoy breakouts: [5V 9V 12V 15V 20V adjustable 3A PD/QC multi-protocol decoy fast charging boost module TYPE-C USB interface](https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005006064674815.html)
+
+Specification:
+* Supports multiple fast charging protocols
+* Maximum support 3A
+* TYPE-C port power supply
+* Support multiple fast charging protocols: PD3.0/2.0, QC3.0/2.0, FCP, AFC
+* PD/QC multi-protocol decoy 5V, 9V, 12V, 15V, 20V voltage adjustable
+
+The manufacturer has said that this is the truth table:
+
+| 1 | 2 | 3 | Voltage |
+|---|---|---|---------|
+| L | L | H |       5 |
+| L | L | L |       9 |
+| L | H | L |      12 |
+| H | H | L |      15 |
+| H | L | L |      20 |
+
+This basically seems to be the same truth table as the original [USB PD decoy](https://hackaday.io/project/187112-usb-pd-decoy), except the logic levels are inverted (high becomes low and vice-versa), and SW1 in the original is M3, SW2 is M1, and SW3 is M2. Pretty convoluted, but it works.

+# Notes on my TimSav
+
+A few years ago I made a TimSav foam cutter CNC. These are my notes on it, because I keep forgetting things.
+
+* It runs [FluidNC](https://github.com/bdring/FluidNC).
+* `M3 S200` enables the spindle at 20%, `M3 S0`/`S0` disables it, `M5` halts it.
+
+To generate the Gcode, I use a program called [LaserWeb](https://laserweb.yurl.ch/). I have a few notes on it:
+
+* After you load an SVG, you need to click the leftmost button below the SVG, with the three cubes. This will select all the paths to generate movements for.
+* You need to click "Create single" to create a path to mill.
+* I use "Laser Cut" as the tool.
+
+I created a small script, `cnc_unwanted_moves`, to remove unwanted tool off/on at each corner. I won't share it here, as it's too specific to my configuration, and probably useless to anyone else.

+# Cloning cards/fobs with a Proxmark3
+
+## Cloning a Paxton fob
+
+Basically, follow this guide:
+
+https://badcfe.org/how-to-paxton-with-proxmark/
+
+I managed to read my fob with:
+
+```
+lf hitag read --ht2 -k BDF5E846
+```
+
+If you're getting "Password failed!" or nothing back, move the fob around the 125KHz antenna (the top one), it should eventually work.
+
+Afterwards, [convert the fob pages to an EM4100 ID](https://static.badcfe.org/paxton-covert), and flash the ID to a T5577, emulating an EM4100 chip:
+
+```
+lf em 410x clone --id <your hex id>
+```
+
+Read it back to make sure:
+
+```
+lf em 410x reader
+```
+
+You should be done, but I haven't tested it as I don't have a Paxton reader handy.
+
+
+## Cloning MiFare cards
+
+See [Cloning a Mifare Classic 1K](https://www.gavinjl.me/proxmark-3-cloning-a-mifare-classic-1k/).
+
+
+## Card cloner password
+
+I have an AliExpress cloner which clones LF cards. Unfortunately, whenever it clones a card, it sets the password bit on it. This makes the card not respond to writes/wipes without the password (it just keeps having the same data, no matter what you write).
+
+To remove it with the Proxmark3, run:
+
+```
+lf t55 wipe -p 51243648
+```
+
+
+## Cloning T5577 cards
+
+Read the card with:
+
+```
+lf em 410x reader
+```
+
+Write with:
+
+```
+lf EM 410x clone --id <the ID from before>
+```
