Use M3KS filament sensor with Octoprint

Hi Guys,

before installing an additional external sensor working with the PI and Octoprint, I just wanted to ask, if there are possibilities to use the installed one...

The pause script from https://www.yirco.me/octoprint-pause-change-filament/ have been tested and they work fine. Just need to trigger them 🙂

Looks like, something changed from the past. The internal sensor gives back its status to Octoprint. After running out of filament, the printer asks to unload the remaining filament and after that, the new one could be loaded. After that, the printer resumes automatically printing from Octoprint. Perfect. No fear of running out of filament anymore.
