Filament detector with GT2560 board?

Post by AmbatiRaydu » Thu Oct 14, 2021 3:14 pm

I bought this filament detector and got it to work on my GT2560 board-controlled I3. The wire from the sensor had to be rearranged on the board end, a 3-pin socket soldered in place of the 2-pin X-max socket, and pin assignments adjusted.......

Update 10/21/18.....
I am now running the latest Marlin firmware, Version 1.1.9, and nothing is changed except the Configuration.h and pins_GT2560_REV_A.h files, which I am attaching.omegle xender

Below is the diagram I drew up to help keep the connections straight. Note that the socket that the filament detector plugs into, formerly the X-max sensor socket, has been replaced with a 3-pin socket to allow inclusion of the 5V+ pin. The wires coming from the detector had to be rearranged to match the socket.
