Filament sensor support? #17

Closed pellcorp closed 7 months ago

pellcorp commented 7 months ago

Will a filament sensor connected to the main board work? Or do I need to connect it to the rpi?

0xD34D commented 7 months ago

Filament sensor works connected to the main board. There's a connector on there that is marked "Filament". I also have a config for using it https://github.com/0xD34D/ender3-v3-se-klipper-config/blob/main/filament_sensor.cfg

@0xD34D Did you use a standard Crealty detector? It's said to have 3 pins, meanwhile the motherboard has extra 24V fourth pin, but it's safe to ignore it?

I used a generic 3 pin sensor and it was fine to just connect +5V, GND and the signal pin.

The Crealty filament sensor that I just bought came with a 3 to 4 pin extension cable. Not sure when they started including it, but it seems like it might have been around the KE release.
