Configuration with sv06 with klipper #35

Open foocross opened 1 year ago

foocross commented 1 year ago

When I add the following to the klipper printer.cfg:

[filament_motion_sensor encoder_sensor] detection_length: 7

The minimum length of filament pulled through the sensor to trigger

a state change on the switch_pin

Default is 7 mm.

extruder: extruder

The name of the extruder section this sensor is associated with.

This parameter must be provided.

switch_pin: PA5

changing the switch_pin name according to your motherboard

pause_on_runout: True

runout_gcode:

insert_gcode:

event_delay:

pause_delay:

I get the following error: The value 'filament_sensor' is not valid for SENSOR

I can't tell if it is working.

Could you tell me how you connected it to the main board of the sovol?

Could you tell me how you connected it to the main board of the sovol? Are you using version 1 or 2 of the sensor?

I got this same error testing the optical side of the sensor only. I had commented out the switch portion just to isolate the correct pin with fewer variables since sv06 plus was a nightmare to track down the board pinout. With it commented out in printer.cfg my misc-macros file containing the print_start, end etc had no reference to the sensor as it was essentially missing from printer.cfg. Also Check your formatting as I know mine likes to get muddled up by spacing errors especially on mobile edits, as well as spelling, brackets etc.
