Would that not be how I have hooked it up? The FPS, when filament is present, connects the two pins on the MFS.... If I simply removed the led and made it a simple open close circuit with no driver, would that be more ideal?

@dc42

One final question, I have upgraded to 2.04RC4 as suggested. And as you indicated the MFS is now detected and no longer submits and error to the Duet. However, the microswitch (closed when filament is present) does not detect the filament for some reason. I must point out that this FPS has an LED that is lit when filament is present. The LED is driven by the two pins on the MFS. Also is there any way to invert the bit for the FPS?

Thank you

Once again I apologize, I should have checked the documentation before asking about the firmware update. The document is clear and shows how to update the firmware. Thank you

Indeed, I am sorry to say I missed such a detail considering it is clearly stated in the Dozuki. The reason for my current firmware is that it has been modified why SeeMeCNC for the RMAX and I do not know what all they had to change. Are the only input files for the Firmware the ones shown in the image below, and if so can I simply modify what is officially posted (ver 2.03) as needed, or can I simply replace the firmware BIN?

Thank you again for your assistance.

Hello,

I have installed two new Magnetic Filament Sensors (MFS), after my Bondtech BMG extruders (see image below), with external Filament Presence Sensors (FPS). Please note image does not show the FPS connected however, the sensor is connected now and will complete the two pin circuit on the MFS when filament is present. At this time I cannot seem to receive a proper response to M591 D0 or D1, each time I receive and error and as such cannot print. I have included all information that would be pertinent however, please let me know if there is anything else that I can provide to help solve this issue. At this time no mater what setting P3 or P4 I cannot receive a positive response from the MFS.

Please let me know if anyone in the community has any ideas, Any Help is Appreciated
