Quite a few issues

Running in a couple of issues using Filamentsensor NG

First it won´t work with a sensor stand alone. You should either activate raspberry resistor power for GPIO used or should explain that an external pull up circut is needed to make raspberry detect that switch position correctly.

Even with that additional raspberry workaround i need at least 7 verifications to prevent Filamentsensor from triggering the gcode commands for pause twice every now and then - what in my case results in doubled height lift.

Filament sensor needs to insert pause signals much faster. Running a 0,6 nozzle, printing wide surfaces with long straight lines, I have to place the sensor about 70 cm from the nozzle to (mostly) get the system paused previous the last pice of filament escapes into the direct drive extruder.

If you switch filament sensor three to five times in short intervall - allowing the printer to go full pause between each trigger - octoprint crashes and closes server function. You can view this behavior on 1.3.9 as well as on all actual RC Versions.

On halve of the installation attempts, the settings page leaves blank. This takes place using firefox as well as edge. Only deinstallation and reinstallation migh bring it to work.
