S5 didn't recognize it ran out of filament

I recently started a new job, and here we have a S5 machine. I am currently used to Prusa, as this is what I have at home.

 

I started a print job yesterday before I left work, and arrived this morning to find the printer announce a completed job, but the printer had ran out of filament about mid print. I believe the printer should have a filament sensor to pause the print, but this didn't happen in this case. Any quick ways to test if the filament sensor is faulty or stuck?

Go through the menus.  Pretty quickly you can find an option to enable/disable the filament sensor.  I have an S5 but don't use the filament sensor and I have never run out of filament.  It's not that hard to make sure there is filament on the printer but this a nice feature sometimes.

Thanks gr5!

 

I went into the menu, and as soon as I enabled the sensor, the ongoing print paused. So it seems someone has disabled it due to it not functioning properly. I will look into this next week.
