Filament laser sensor shows too short movement in a minute.

What type of filament are you using, and which version of RepRapFirmware?

The laser sensor works better with some types of filament than others.

Have you done an extruder calibration like this?

Might not be a bad idea to give it another try, but if your prints are looking ok that might not make a difference.

The type and color of filament you're using can have an effect due to the way the light passes through it rather than being blocked by it.

Having some more information about your setup may help. Firmware version, config file, extruder setup, where the sensor is installed?

@dc42 Hello.
The firmware is 2.03Beta3 and the filament is PLA.
When I modified to M591 D0 P5 C3 S1 R5:120 E6.0 NOT E3.0 it's got better.
But still showing very low Min...

@Phaedrux Thank you.

I suggest you upgrade your firmware to 2.05.1 because I'm not sure that 2.03beta even supports the more recent versions of the filament monitor.

Upload this complete zip file as is (don't extract it) to the system tab in DWC.

@dc42 Thank you.
I will do it tomorrow!

@Phaedrux Oh How kind !

Hiroaki

@dc42 Hello. I have updated the firmware and tried.
Unfortunately the result was the same.
Maybe because of the filament is dark blue ?
Maybe because the sensor has a dirt on it ?
If you have any idea, please help.
Best Regards

Yes, it's possible.

Have you read through this page?
