Extruder 0 has no filament sensor

alankilian

Just for fun, I disconnected my sensor and did a power-on and I get:

m591 d0
Duet3D rotating magnet filament monitor v1 on pin e0stop, enabled, sensitivity 28.80mm/rev, allow 60% to 160%, check every 3.0mm, no data received

So...... We can forget about wiring.

Something else is wrong.

Can you type this in the GCODE console and report back the results:

m591 D0 P1 C"e0_stop" S1
m591 D0
m591 D0 P3 C"e0_stop" S1
m591 D0

Here's what I get:

m591 D0 P1 C"e0_stop" S1
m591 D0
Simple filament sensor on pin e0stop, enabled, output low when no filament, filament present: yes

m591 D0 P3 C"e0_stop" S1
m591 D0
Duet3D rotating magnet filament monitor v1 on pin e0stop, enabled, sensitivity 28.80mm/rev, allow 60% to 160%, check every 3.0mm, no data received

@dave-parry Ah yes I have
M591 D0 ; display filament sensor parameters for extruder drive 0

after the M591 command.

@dave-parry

Try the test commands I posted above you.

OK!!! You've got it configured now.

If you wait a minute or so, do you get a report with mag and agc:

Duet3D rotating magnet filament monitor v3 on pin e0stop, enabled, sensitivity 28.80mm/rev, allow 60% to 160%, check every 3.0mm, version 3, mag 129 agc 118, no calibration data

filament monitor v1

We may need some extra help from @dc42 to see if there's something different with the v1 filament monitor vs. my v3.

Dave Parry

@alankilian Not got that message yet and it wont home now. I get Error G28
failed to enable end stops.

Dave Parry

@alankilian I only just got this about a month before christmas, so dont understand the V1

Dave Parry

@dave-parry Restarted it and it's now homing

Dave Parry

@dave-parry Have rechecked the commands and I now get this
m591 D0
Duet3D rotating magnet filament monitor v3 on pin e0stop, enabled, sensitivity 28.80mm/rev, allow 60% to 160%, check printing moves every 3.0mm, version 3, mag 133 agc 60, no calibration data

So it is V3

alankilian

@dave-parry

OK!!!

You're all set.

You'll get calibration data after you start a print.

What do you think the problem was?

"C3" vs. "e0_stop"

Dave Parry

@alankilian No sorry Alan, I meant I put the Gcode commands in manually and it reports V3. If I power on/off it goes back to no sensor. It does however display extruder drive 0 data in the status window. If I feed some filament it increments the correct amount.

alankilian

@dave-parry

Post your config.g

You've just got something missing or something extra in there.

You're REALLY close.

Dave Parry

@dave-parry Ok have changed the M591 in config.sys to the second M591 in your list
m591 D0 P3 C"e0_stop" S1 and it seems to have done the trick....
Havent tried it yet with running out of filament will try that now. Also console says no calibration data, do I need to do this, cant see anything on the dozuki that mentions it.
Anyway thank you very much for your patience. Promise next time I take the print bed off will change the cable round so the colours are correct....

Dave Parry

Well it Paused the print and saved the resume state, so I guess thats a "solved" thank god ( and You).

@dave-parry said in Extruder 0 has no filament sensor:

Also console says no calibration data

It will get calibration data as it starts to print and can check the extrusion amount vs. the amount the sensor is saying came out. It's automatic.

Of you try m591 d0 during a print, you'll see more data.
