hall filament width sensor

[seebaer1976]

Requested feature:

would it be possible to install the hall filament width sensor (link to hall filament width sensor)? i.e. the menu entries and the current measured filament diameter on the main screen.

Kind regards markus

Solves the following problem:

Would be nice to have one. It's easier for debugging and testing during the implementation.

Bump - Would be nice to add "plugin" or way to interface with Klipper's Filament Sensor Width: https://www.klipper3d.org/Hall_Filament_Width_Sensor.html

until now, i don't have a sensor to test this function... is there some "all in one set" available?

[wrutherf]

Nothing "off the shelf" there are several width sensor models in various sites (thingiverse, printables).

Typically housing with 2 hall effect sensors, that measure magnetic field from magnet on sliding lever that is moved by the filament. https://www.printables.com/model/57699-filament-width-sensor-hall-sensors

I'm building a hall effect width sensor myself, anyone willing to add a way to see current filament width on the mainsail page i will send them a filament width sensor if need be

If you are able to test a mainsail build, this would also fit...
