OUT OF ​FILAMENT SENSOR FOR THE FlashForge Creator Pro / CTC / Wanhao / Qidi / Makerbot STYLE PRINTERS

This filament sensor automatically pauses the printer when you run out of filament, allowing you to recover your print.
​
This works / is plug and play on the FlashForge Creator Pro with MightyBoard. It also needs the SailFish firmware v7.5 or later, You can use either single or dual sensors on a dual extruder. (A single sensor only monitors one roll, while two sensors will monitor both rolls).

For the Dreamer, you will need to do some soldering. It's pretty straight-forward, and I can even add in the pins required to be soldered to the board.

RAMPS 1.4 with Marlin now supported.
