How to disable speaker/beep?
Posted: Thu Mar 18, 2021 2:39 am
Sometimes I may have a problem with nozzle or bed heating, caused by various reasons (mostly my experiments), but the reason is out of scope of the question.
The question is: how do I disable the annoying beep noise which Marlin software produces when it thinks there's a sensor failure?
I understand that this is a form of indication of some important thing, but to me an error message on the screen and in the host software is more than enough. When the printer halts it disables all heating, so it gets into a safe state, which I hardly believe requires such an emergency alarm and immediate attention.
At the same time, the noise is really annoying, it's high pitch, very loud (especially in a small room) and comparing to it a nail scratching a glass sounds like a melody.
Is there any way to disable the beep in this specific situation or (if it's not possible to have this granularity) disable the speaker completely. If not, I guess I'll simply cut its wires - this beeper is a device from hell.
