Controller should detect bad/flakey FSR connection

Open ghost opened this issue 8 years ago • 0 comments

After tracking down why my bed was never leveling quite right, I found one of my FSR sensors was damaged (small crack running across a surface wire on one sensor). It would sometimes make a connection, other times not. When the connection was broken, the FSR controller would not detect pressure and it would not give an error.

Is the controller sensitive enough to distinguish between an FSR with zero pressure (ie: MΩ resistance), and between no connection at all (ie: a damaged or disconnected sensor with infinite resistance)?
