Tunable Parameters

These constants in board_scanner.h and gantry_controller.h may need adjustment based on your specific hardware:

Constant	Default	Purpose
MUX_SETTLE_US	1000 $\mu$s	Time to wait after changing mux address before reading. Increase if readings are noisy.
DIAGNOSTIC_CHANNEL_HOLD_MS	1000 ms	Time to hold each mux address during the diagnostic channel matrix so S0–S3 can be read with a meter or logic probe.
DEBOUNCE_SCANS	3	Number of consecutive identical scans required before accepting a reading as stable.
DEBOUNCE_DELAY_MS	50 ms	Delay between debounce scans. Total debounce time = SCANS $\times$ DELAY.
POLL_INTERVAL_MS	20 ms	How often to poll sensors during waitForLegalMove.
ILLEGAL_STATE_ALERT_MS	10,000 ms	How long the board can sit in an unrecognized state before alerting the player.
FEED_RATE	1000 in/min	Gantry movement speed. Reduce if the gantry skips steps or knocks pieces over.
dwell(100)	100 ms	Pick/release settle time around magnet on/off. Encoded as G4 P0.100 for GRBL. Increase only if the magnet or pieces need more settle time.
SQUARE_SIZE	1.5 in	Physical size of each board square.
BOARD_SIZE	12.0 in	Physical size of the 8$\times$<!-- -->{=html}8 board area.
A1_CENTER_X/Y	5.000 / 4.420 in	Calibrated center of a1 in the G54 work frame.
CAPTURE_VERTICAL_SPACING	1.5 in	Storage slot row spacing; matches the board square size.
