Before starting with soldering capacitors to anything I decided to investigate further. Before making any changes I sometimes had 20 or more sensorErrors just during mesh leveling.

First I installed a new wire for the sensor, completely outside of the machine, away from all other cables incl. the other cables going to the smart effector. Test print of about 45 minutes, no errors.

So my issue was being caused by the wiring. I still had some cable for analog sensors, with braided shielding. But because those wires were pretty thick I just removed the shield from that wire, and put it around my new filament sensor wire, guided it through the nylon sleeving that goes to the smart effector and did another test print. Again, no sensorErrors!

I'll have to see how it behaves the next couple of weeks, but to me it seems that the error was caused by my own wiring being to close to the other wiring for the smart effector.

Hi,

I have a UM2+ that I upgraded with both the Bondtech DDG and a Duet 2 Ethernet. Original stepper on the extruder. I can't copy/paste the relevant part of the config file directly (no vpn from pc to duet when I'm not at home) but I logged in through my phone and typed the relevant extruder config values below.

M92 E311
M566 E250
M203 E2700
M201 E350
M906 E900

I did not tweak any of this as I have been printing perfectly fine with the settings above. No filament slipping and just a very faint clicking during operation (which was also there before upgrading) which I think is normal. Only loud clicking I experience is when loading filament and the tip does not insert into the heatbreak properly, or if I'm extruding fast (manual extrusion, not during printing) with a low temperature.
