Hello! Good video, thank you! A small issue on my board is not recognizing switch. I am using Klipper and the runout sensor icon appears but does not switch off when no filament.
Hi good video, two questions though. Is it possible to program Klipper to finish the layer before pausing? I run a direct drive and there is plenty of filament to finish the layer usually. Second can Klipper be program to beep when runout is triggered?
Your *max_extrude_only_distance* parameter is set to 100mm in *[extruder]* section, whereas you are requesting 600mm of extrusion or purge for your filament change macro. Try setting the value to something higher like this: [extruder] max_extrude_only_distance: 800.0
@@HyperMakes Big thanks man how is it going with your SW? Are you gonna put a stealth burner on it and make a video about it ? Really love the SW building series
@@martin.ristal Not soon enough, because i have taken a break from RU-vid for my higher studies. The switchwire will remain in hibernation for some time. Glad you liked the series, thanks for watching.
Hello David. I will answer your second question first. As you might know, that *Marlin* is the firmware that most of the printers run on their motherboard. Marlin natively reads and calculates the stl file from sd card using the microprocessor on motherboard. This puts load on the microprocessor of the motherboard, as it has to do all the calculations. But in *Klipper* the firmware i am using, all the calculations are done by a host computer such as a Raspberry Pi and the Raspberry Pi only sends the simple gcode movement commands to the printer, which enables the printer to perform higher steps/second. There are so many things to explain, but I suggest you to search on Google. Regarding your first question. In *Klipper* whenever we need to do some software or hardware change, we simply edit and update the *printer.cfg* file in our klippy host computer. Which is way easier and faster than compiling a new firmware for each small change we do in software or hardware of the printer. P.S.- Sorry for long explanation.
