Printer: K1 speedy
The issue:
After configuring the gcode to move to the button and entering the correct values x/y it does not appear to work properly.
What happens:
The printer does the normal start gcode, auto bed level, heats up etc. When it goes to touch the button, it does 3 quick button presses, lets off for a moment, then presses and holds for a really long time. I can hear the cameleon ticking, but no filament is loaded or unloaded. Then the print head moves off as if it starts the print. I made sure that the cameleon is on mode 3, its homed properly before the print starts. If I manually press the switch I can successfully load/unload filament in the right directions. What am I doing wrong?
Heres my start gcode:
SET_FILAMENT_SENSOR SENSOR=filament_sensor ENABLE=0
SET_FILAMENT_SENSOR SENSOR=filament_sensor_2 ENABLE=0

Thanks for the speedy and clear response bill! That seems to have been my problem. I am
Using a custom mount for the switch. The one that came with the device didn’t work I couldn’t get it attached properly. That’s the reason for the difference in distances
