      Hi,

      I want to setup a filament runout sensor. I have a microswitch (NC) connected to the E1_STOP on the board and I have read this:
      https://duet3d.com/wiki/Connecting_and_configuring_filament-out_sensors

      As this page describes, http://reprap.org/wiki/G-code#M591:_Configure_filament_sensing I want to insert M581 E1 S1 T1 C0 and M582 T1 lines code but I don't know where. Should I insert them into the config.g file? Should I make a new macro and put it there?

        I would put that with the endstops in the config folder

          In firmware 1.19 there is more direct support for filament sensors. See https://duet3d.com/wiki/G-code#M591:_Configure_filament_sensing. But if that doesn't do what you want, you can still use M581 instead.
