@fcwilt Good morning, no i have nothing there
Morning.
IdeaMaker uses what they call Templates. Templates have several places where code can be entered.
For whatever template is being used when you get the filament message check all of the possible code places shown below:

Well this is curious. I'm running out of ideas.
Do you have a start.g file?

you can change the extension to .txt and upload it or use a file sharing cloud service.

I meant you should look at it as it is the source of the filament change message you mentioned in an earlier post.

yes we have the macro which gives the message but not sure why it comes up during printing.
As i wrote in an other post that there are problems with statics voltage, do bad design of the printer.
I added ground to all metall pieces, had to get ride of paint etc.
Now i can touch the dispaly or printer without any failures or messages on the display.
my feeling is the reason was the missing grounding.
I´m printig now a big part, total progress 540h . already 96h done.
Thx for your help

DieterIn the config.g file, down in custom settings, there are two triggers configured which, when activated, will run pause.g. The comments say they are connected to filament sensors, one for E0 and one for E1.
Something must be happening to cause the filament sensors to activate the triggers.

I think it's as simple as filament not being loaded in the second tool.'
One way around this is to move the filament sensor activation into the tool change files so that the sensor is only checking for filament when it's the selected tool.

Why would you monitor filament sensors with triggers rather than use the M591 command?

@fcwilt Probably a hold over from the original Modix files?
