Stop print to add magnets

Hi

I have followed online tutorial to add a pause in print to add magnets.

The problem is that I don't know when it has paused when I am doing other work. The head then cools down and I get a line in my print when I resume.

Is there a way to add a BEEP at the point the printer pauses to notify me? (I am using Mk3 s+)

Thanks

The M300 gcode generates a beep and you can include it with the 'Add custom g-code' option in the same menu as the pause.

Or:

Instead of a pause insert a filament change which will beep, add the magnets then reload the same filament.

Cheerio,

RE:

Use something like, G1 X10.000 Y200.000 Z25 E0;M1;M105; In the custom layer G-code and forsake all other suggestions. obviously change the height (Z) to match the height of your particular Models Height.

It looks like this.

And here is an example of how the G-code can be used.

Hint: Slice the file to view the custom inserted G-code

 

 

If this is beyond your current skill level, then move on and endeavor to educated yourself.
