using UM5 without spool holder

[thorsenrune 11]

I've been using my UM5 successfully for some time now  without spool holder. After latest update it starts complaining : NFC spoolholder error

How can I ignore or override this?

 

(The spool holder is really in an inconvenient place (I have little room) and I prefer having the spools on a shelf below the printer and it works, just not detecting the filament though. )

Yes- I am the same- it’s a shame they added that feature to the firmware- would be nice to turn it off

What about keeping the NFC sensor cable plugged in the printer, eventually taking the sensor out of the spoolholder and putting it somewhere near the printer, where it doesn't disturb?

It would be even better if they had made the cable longer, say 1m
