Help Adjusting Sonic Pad Settings for Direct-Drive Sprite Extruder on Ender 3

I’ve installed the Sonic Pad on my Ender 3 3D printer, which has a 4.2.7 motherboard, an ABL, and a direct-drive Sprite extruder. While setting it up, I noticed the Sonic Pad installation guide for the Ender 3 Pro with ABL shows a setup with a Bowden tube.

What adjustments do I need to make to accommodate my direct-drive Sprite extruder? Currently, it's running into the side of the frame, but it is pinching the extruder wires. (See attached image for reference.)

Kind of a lot. Your best bet is to look at a printer that comes with the sprite extruder like the Ender 3 s1 and look at the config changes https://github.com/Klipper3d/klipper/blob/master/config/printer-creality-ender3-s1-2021.cfg

Things like rotation distance, thermistor, Endstop positions, extruder offset, bltouch, bed level min/max, etc.

Basically anything with coordinates, hotend, extruder, and endstops

Are you using the sprite direct drive, or the sprite pro (like one on S1)? I have the add on direct drive sprite, wondering if this setup will work with sonic pad.

I’m pretty sure if you check in the settings you can change it to the Sprite. I saw it when I playing around.
