IF-Sense
Inline Filament Sensor with NO SOLDERING!
Meet IF-Sense, a compact budget-friendly inline filament sensor that works without any soldering.
Unlike traditional filament sensors, IF-Sense works with a simple JST-XH connector, and does not require soldering directly to a microswitch. This makes it much easier to assemble and reduces the chance of a solder joint failing over time.
BOM
Bold links indicate that they have been tested.
Wiring
Use the two outermost pins on the connector for wiring. Connect one to GND and the other to an I/O pin on your board. Order does not matter.
Configuration
Configure like a normal switch-based filament sensor. Make sure you configure the pin as a pullup with the ^ symbol (gpio4 is used as an example, actual pin will vary by setup):
extruder_switch_pin: ^mmu: gpio4
