V4.96 Pro connection notes
Connection pathConnect the controller header to RJ12 Adapter V4.2, then connect the approved RJ12 cable to Pendant V4.2.
Shared GPIOUART2 uses TX GPIO.27 and RX GPIO.25. Disable OLED / I2C that uses the same GPIO pair.
RX/TX correctionUse only one swap point in the complete path: Pendant V4.2, RJ12 Adapter V4.2 or ESP3D software. Two swaps cancel each other.
