Feature Request - Filament odometer and/or extruder hour meter

in Feature Requests

I would like to request that a hour meter for the extruder heads and/or an odometer on the filament be added to the firmware. The current value could be stored in EEPROM for power cycle retention. The ability to reset the meter would be nice but not necessary. I would use the meter reading to determine when to do preventative maintenance on the extruder head (i.e. PTFE tubing replacement / cleaning).

Thanks in advance.

    That is already included for quite a while but requires eeprom support enabled. LCD will show usage as well as M115. In eeprom settings you can reset the meter.

    Thanks,  eeprom mode  was set to 0. I have found it now and it is exactly what I was looking for.
