Hello Magneto X Enthusiasts!
We're excited to share some important tips on configuring your Klipper files for Magneto X. In this blog, we’ll dive into crucial settings for your Magneto X, covering Klipper file adjustments, runout sensor improvements, and homing commands. Plus, we’re excited to live unboxing from 3D Printing Nerd and Dan, and 3DPrintSOS!
【Important Klipper File Settings】
Fixing Pause and Runout Sensor Issues
We've had feedback about prints not resuming after a runout sensor trigger. Here’s how to fix it:
- Upgrade to Metal Runout Sensor: If you're still using the older sensor, temporarily disable the runout feature until you upgrade to the metal version, which is more durable and less prone to false triggers.
- Macros Configuration: For users with the metal runout sensor, add CLEAR_PAUSE to the PAUSE macro in the macros.cfg file to fix pause recovery issues.
- Idle Timeout Settings: Adjust the idle_timeout parameter in printer.cfg from 3600 to 360000, allowing recovery within 100 hours of idle time.
【Improving X/Y Homing Commands】
Some users have reported issues where users experience motor errors after completing bed_mesh, QGL,or when executing the home command. Here's the solution:
- We have located that this is because in the homing_override macro of printer.cfg, we immediately sent the command to move the motor after executing the LM_ENABLE command.
- LM_ENABLE will execute the motor enable action. There are very few machines that may have a longer motor enable time. Immediate movement after enabling may cause the motor to fail to initialize.
- Please add the line G4 P4000 after the LM_ENABLE macro to solve the problem well.
【 Live Unboxing】

Could you provide more details on how to enable filament detection in Klipper? I had disabled the filament run out detection per https://wiki.peopoly.net/en/magneto/magneto-x/disable-runout-sensor
I commented out the 4 lines in magneto_toolhead.cfg
Before installing the magneto-x-mainsailOS-2024-5-1-v1.1.3-mag-x firmware I had updated my macros.cfg, then the Up System Macro (_UPDATE_OS)
I then restored the commands that had been commented out – saved and restarted.
I got the following error in Klipper
pin gpio29 used multiple times in config.
I checked magneto_toolhead.cfg and it is defined in line 286 and 322.
Not sure how to fix this
