1LC + Duet Rotary Magnetic Filament Sensor - Problems

T3P3Tony

@medicusdkfz it should be D0 in M591 not 121.0

What report do you get back from M591 D0 ?

medicusdkfz

Hi Tony,

at the moment I have a print running. The sensor is currently disabled with the S0 parameter. The Version is 1.7a...

This is the message I get with "m591 d0":

Duet3D rotating magnet filament monitor v1 on pin 121.io1.in, disabled, sensitivity 24.80mm/rev, allow 70% to 130%, check every 3.0mm, no data received

Thank you,
Pierre

Now I see, that the led is flashing 7 times: Magnet too weak...

How can I solve this?

@medicusdkfz

At the moment I get no mag or agc parameters. I'll try to sand my housing a little bit down...

medicusdkfz

I sanded my housing down and now I get 3 green flashes at powering up the sensor.

My actual data M591 d0:
Duet3D rotating magnet filament monitor v3 on pin 121.io1.in, disabled, sensitivity 24.80mm/rev, allow 70% to 130%, check every 3.0mm, version 3, mag 133 agc 87, measured sensitivity infmm/rev, min 2147483647% max 2147483647% over 66.1mm

What do I have to configure now in my config.g?

Thank you very much,
Pierre

@medicusdkfz that is a much better reading from the sensor. (agc 87) obviously the mm/rev and min max are wrong. is this with the same print still going on or a new print?

When you can please start a new print with the sensor still disabled and see what sensitivity and mix max are reported.

also what version of firmware do you have on the 6HC and the 1LC?

Hi Tony,

I have installed the latest version of RRF3.3 on 6HC and 1LC 3 days ago... The measurement was midprint. After pausing my actual print, I disconnected the sensor, sanded the housing, reconnected the sensor and started the paused print again. This was the first measurement almost after starting...

When I start a new print, how do I clear the sensor data? Is this automatically done?

Best regards,
Pierre

dc42

@medicusdkfz every time you start a new print or resume a paused print, the collected calibration data is reset.

medicusdkfz

@dc42 Thank you very much for your answer and your great job!!!

This is my M591 midprint:

M591 D0
Duet3D rotating magnet filament monitor v3 on pin 121.io1.in, disabled, sensitivity 24.80mm/rev, allow 70% to 130%, check every 3.0mm, version 3, mag 131 agc 87, measured sensitivity 127519.39mm/rev, min -3859% max 77317% over 9837.9mm

This looks strange... The sensitivity is way too high... To be on the safe side I have also checked my firmware version with M122 for 6HC and 1LC - both have 3.3...

This is my M122 B121:

I have a sensor like this with a additional switch connector (see picture).

4NKI2L1SXOKMfChL.huge.jpeg

Before I had a p-value from 3 in M591. Is that right or do I have to choose P4? I'm a little confused. When I setup with P4, I get following sensor statement:

M591 D0
Duet3D rotating magnet filament monitor v3 with switch on pin 121.io1.in, disabled, sensitivity 24.80mm/rev, allow 70% to 130%, check every 3.0mm, version 3, no filament, mag 130 agc 85, no calibration data

Thank you for your support,
Pierre

@medicusdkfz

P3 means you have a rotating magnetic sensor.
P4 means you have a rotating magnetic sensor AND you've plugged in a microswitch to the two-pin "SW" connector as a filament-out sensor

M591

medicusdkfz

Now my sensor is working. It shows the right values. Here is my M591 D0:

m591 d0
Duet3D rotating magnet filament monitor v3 on pin 121.io1.in, enabled, sensitivity 25.77mm/rev, allow 90% to 110%, check every 3.0mm, version 3, mag 132 agc 83, measured sensitivity 25.12mm/rev, min 97% max 103% over 103.6mm

After changing the P value back to 3, my problems are solved. Great safety feature...

Thank you for all your help,
Pierre

@medicusdkfz AWESOME!

Show us what you're printing sometime.

@alankilian Here is a actual video of my latest project: Scara robot laser arm. Printing the base and more...

I don't understand the hysteresis. My printer paused the print. When I read the parameters via M591 D0, I get this:

m591 d0
Duet3D rotating magnet filament monitor v3 on pin 121.io1.in, enabled, sensitivity 25.00mm/rev, allow 70% to 130%, check every 10.0mm, version 3, mag 133 agc 85, measured sensitivity 25.01mm/rev, min 95% max 116% over 16071.0mm

My print keeps pausing with a message that "too little movement" was detected on the sensor. I'm not alone with this problem. The deviation is obviously too large. What are safe min-max-values, when sometimes the min-value goes down to 4%?

Where is my thinking error?

Duet3D rotating magnet filament monitor v3 on pin 121.io1.in, enabled, sensitivity 25.00mm/rev, allow 2% to 200%, check every 3.0mm, version 3, mag 129 agc 85, measured sensitivity 25.05mm/rev, min 96% max 104% over 6371.7mm

I think, I've found my fault... I unchecked some checkboxes in SuperSlicer in my printer settings...

Now min and max are stable between 90 and 120...

@medicusdkfz if possible can you upload a (short) print example where you got the issues with relative E distances and that then is fixed with absolute? In general the normal advice is to use relative extrusion not absolute extrusion because it prevents a build up of errors in rounding, however this will help my investigation into what's happening.

@medicusdkfz Historically I had my sensors floating "inline" like your pictures show, and I also battled these spurious faults and exaggerated min/max values. At some point I finally took the time to design housings/brackets to positively affix the monitors to a rigid structure (extruder, carriage, chassis, etc) and the faults disappeared. I am guessing it had something to do with twisting of the filament/ptfe tube, and/or lash in the filament conveyance path. It seems like however small the error was, eventually it would stack up and release at just the wrong time to trigger a fault.
