Filament detection sensor always triggers filament change on SKR 1.4 Turbo. about smart-filament-detection-module HOT 15 OPEN

Whats with:
#define FIL_RUNOUT_PIN 2 // Creality CR10-S stock sensor
I don't see that as an option, or necessary for config.
Skr 1.4 has pins defined in pins file:
#define FIL_RUNOUT_PIN P1_26 // E0DET
#define FIL_RUNOUT2_PIN P1_25 // E1DET
Connecting the sensor to 1.26 or 1.25 with the settings you provided above should work
If you are getting false positives make sure :

1. the nozzles is not blocked or too close to the bed
2. the extruder is pushing filament correctly (not skipping or coasting over filament making it appear to be jammed)

I was also wondering why that line was in the config, I had pulled the config file from the marlin bugfix 2.0 branch for my CR-10 s5. I tried commenting it out and it still didn't work. I made sure the nozzle wasn't too close or jammed and the extruder appears to be working just fine.
One thing I did notice is that when I run an M119 command is that sensor appears open before any filament has been moved. Once the filament moves within the sensor it changes to triggered and remains triggered even when I take the filament out of it. I think it gets stuck as triggered. When I invert it then it gets stuck as open.

Are you printing from a TFT? If so are you using touch mode or marlin mode?
Did you define in config.h
#define NOZZLE_PARK_FEATURE
Did you define in config.adv
#define ADVANCED_PAUSE_FEATURE
Are the wires in the correct location?

Hi, I have the same problem. I use a CR10S with skr1.4 turbo 5x TMC2208 UART(always BTT)+ hemera and a standard CR10s LCD.
The wiring is correct, connected in E0DET, Tried disabling everything (Linear advance, s-curve, junction deviation all off) but nothing.
#define NOZZLE_PARK_FEATURE enabled
#define ADVANCED_PAUSE_FEATURE enabled
I am using Marlin bugfix2.0 February release.

Tried to print at 1 cm high (basically throwing filament to the bed) and still after a while the change filament is triggered.
Any Idea?

Hey guys, I have an ordinary on/off endstop plugged into P1_26 (#define FIL_RUNOUT_PIN P1_26) on BTT SKR 1.4 Turbo.
The LED on the sensor turns on and off when I switch it. But M119 always returns Filament: TRIGGERED.
I can reverse this state in Marlin (#define FIL_RUNOUT_STATE HIGH ), but then it is always OPEN. Have you any solution to solve this problem?

Hi, try to comment #define WATCH_ALL_RUNOUT_SENSORS

from smart-filament-detection-module.

I've tried, but still nothing happens :(

#define FILAMENT_RUNOUT_SENSOR
#if ENABLED(FILAMENT_RUNOUT_SENSOR)
  #define FIL_RUNOUT_ENABLED_DEFAULT true // Enable the sensor on startup. Override with M412 followed by M500.
  #define NUM_RUNOUT_SENSORS   1          // Number of sensors, up to one per extruder. Define a FIL_RUNOUT#_PIN for each.
  
  #define FIL_RUNOUT_STATE     LOW        // Pin state indicating that filament is NOT present.
  #define FIL_RUNOUT_PULLUP               // Use internal pullup for filament runout pins.
  //#define FIL_RUNOUT_PULLDOWN           // Use internal pulldown for filament runout pins.
  #define WATCH_ALL_RUNOUT_SENSORS      // Execute runout script on any triggering sensor, not only for the active extruder.

I'm having this issue as well. Nothing is working so far even with nothing plugged in the E0DET port, it counts as triggered.

from smart-filament-detection-module.

Also, I have TMC2209 steppers and I suspect there may be a conflict between sensorless homing and the endstop triggers as it is ignoring the X and Y endstops (which is desirable).

from smart-filament-detection-module.

Ok, that's the issue. I have a TMC2209 on my E0 extruder and hadn't clipped or bent the pin to disable. A few options are:

1. Disable Sensorless homing on the Extruder Stepper by disconnecting the detection pins, which should solve it for most people who don't want to mess with the firmware.
2. Swap the FIL_RUNOUT_PIN and FIL_RUNOUT2_PIN values and plug it into the E1DET port for people who don't want to mess with their stepper driver.
3. Use a non-sensorless homing stepper driver for the extruder like the a TMC2208.

I went with the second option because I didn't want to modify my stepper, though I may go with the third option later on.

I have the same issue of false triggering; indicating the filament is out even when it is not: ( Bigtree Tech SKR 1.4 Turbo board, Marlin 2.09.01 )

If I turn off Runout detection on the LCD 12864 it 3D prints without issues. Of course this will not detect any filament runout.

So I designed and 3D Printed:-

Clever Filament Runout/Jam Detector
Use an 3D Printed encoder wheel to trigger an Optical Endstop
Filament actually moving may be viewed by the encoder wheel turning or the Optical endstop- LED flashing
..
NOTE::: BOTH the Bigtree Tech Smart Filament Detector and this unit return a signal that the filament is OUT even when the filament is present, false triggering.

Because both do the same false triggering I think it may be a Marlin issue * and not either unit.

Looking online indicates false triggering is a common issue.

STL files:-

• In My case I found that the Top Clamp that grips the Filament was catching on the washers I used. This caused the filament to slip and not always turn the encoder wheel resulting in false triggers; This may not be the only issue. Testing removing the washers soon. Video 2 a fix = No false jam or filament out https://youtu.be/IKHTXYuorLQ

Video 2 a fix = No false jam or filament out

This Clever Filament Runout Jam Detector does NOT return False Positives.
It uses a Optical End Stop and an encoder wheel to trigger Filament movement. It also uses a Dual Gear unit.

Are you printing from a TFT? If so are you using touch mode or marlin mode? Did you define in config.h #define NOZZLE_PARK_FEATURE Did you define in config.adv #define ADVANCED_PAUSE_FEATURE Are the wires in the correct location?

Is using a TFT Touch Screen still an issue when running the BTT Smart Filament Runout Sensor?

from smart-filament-detection-module.

I am having the same problem. I have tried 1. and 3. Changing to a 2208 did not help.

from smart-filament-detection-module.

OK. Here's what I've tried: E3P BTT skr v1.4 turbo sensorless homing on (Since previous post indicate it doesn't matter what you do, these sensors simply do not work.

The best thing to do is leave a flamingly bad review on Amazon and Google.

1. Everything mentioned above.
2. found an unused pin and assigned to ROS.
3. tried every combination possible for any defined services using the same pin.

I (We) have runout (TRIGGER) of options. Bottomline: It is a complete hoax that does not work for anyone as far as I can tell.

from smart-filament-detection-module.

I had the same issue.
The problem was value of FILAMENT_RUNOUT_DISTANCE_MM was too small. But when you change it in firmware it doesn't have any effect, since was already saved on the flash, and read from there. So script like

; Enable (and reset) filament runout detection and set runout distance to 30mm
M412 S1 D30 
M500 ; save settings to flash

Helped me.
