Description
IR-Sensor:The IR sensor is a hybrid solution that combines an IR sensor triggered by a tiny mechanical lever. This means that in case one of the functions of the IR sensor is not working, the source of the issue might not be the sensor itself..For the Problem:1)Autoload not working.2)Filament sensor runout not working.3)The printer asking you at the beginning of a print to unload the filament and then to load it back in..Wire Connection：The connector should be on the bottom row of pins, covering all pins, with the red wire on the right showed the picture. The cables for MK3/S/+ and MK2.5/S IR filament sensors are different as they have different mainboards. On MK2.5/S the white wire is shifted one pin to the right..checking status: after you have mount the IR Filament sensor, then please check the screen display The value should be a stable 0 when there is no filament and a stable 1 as long as the filament is present..Steel ball:the lever has to move freely and get pushed by the steel ball in a regular manner.Make sure the steel ball is in its housing.Make sure that you did not forget to put in the M3x18 screw that serves as a shaft for the lever movement. make sure the magnets have the correct orientation.
