4 months ago Please ignore my previous report, I just didn't understand yet how the Knomi renders these bars.
After looking at the source code, I understand this better now: During printing, it will display three acceleration bars, one for each axis. Looking at the source code, I learned that the values that are driving these bars are not coming from Klipper. Instead, the sensor that makes this possible is a LIS2DW12 3-axis MEMS accelerometer and mounted on the Knomi PCB itself, sensing how the Knomi moves through 3D space.
If you read this far, you most likely have a bed-slinger style printer, and the print head will only accelerate in the x and z directions while it moves during printing (never in the y direction because that is the axis of the bed). The acceleration bar for the Y axis will therefore never really move and remain mostly at zero.
There should be a configurable option to specify if the printer is a bed-slinger or corexy style printer. Consequently, for bed-slingers - perhaps there are values on the Moonraker api for each axis that could be displayed to make this somewhat interesting instead of the LIS2DW12 accelerometer values.

I'm not sure if anybody else has seen this yet. New one, but bought a while back - haven't actually used it until yesterday on my Ender3 S1 Pro. I flashed it with the latest firmware.bin and put it on the printer. While it completes a layer, I see blips on the x and z but next to nothing on the y. I don't use z-hop, so there should be next to nothing on the z, unless going up to the next layer. I see almost nothing on the Y, almost if the two were reversed. Is anyone else seeing this?
