Feature Request: turn light on, when door is opened
MabuClou opened this issue · comments
At least on the X1C we have this entitiy: "_enclosure_door", which signals, if the door is open or not.
It would be nice to have the lights switch to white as soon as you open the door. No matter which color was displayed before.
Like, if there is an error, then BLLED turns on red light. But to take care of the problem, you want to have proper light. So when you open the printers door, the white light should come up automaticly.
Also when the print is finished and you see green light. Just walk to the printer and open the door to get proper light to remove your parts. That would be convienient.

Awesome idea Please add this to the code
I asked for this several times and the developer is not willing to implement this. You must alter the firmware by yourselves to implement this.
Fork available with more option available then original firmware.
Have a look at this GitHub place:
https://github.com/wile1411/BLLEDController
@madnotna my focus is to make sure the firmware is stable and works. i will add features overtime when i get time to do so.
the goal of this repo is that people can add onto it, just like wile did.
that fork will be eventually merged once all the bugs are fixes.
Some work on the code was recently completed by a community member

The LEDs stay green after a print finishes. Once you open or close the door, the LEDs return to white
You can also use the door as a LED light switch to turn them off by closing the printer door twice in 6 seconds
Lastly, there is an set-able inactivity timer. If it's not printing, the LEDs will turn off after that time expires.
Neat idea for turning White while in 'error' state after the door state is change.
(can be tricky though as no all people print with the door closed)
I'll see if I can shoehorn that in :)
just installed this - fantastic upgrades!
