 Every axis is equipped with a Hall effect sensor and a magnet for accurate home positioning. If the Hall effect sensor nears the magnet and measures the defined threshold value of the magnetic field strength, the sensor effects a "​stop"​ signal via the microcontroller. After all sensors have given this signal the moving axes are in home position. The home position is the reference value for all relative movement of the extruder head and the print bed. Every axis is equipped with a Hall effect sensor and a magnet for accurate home positioning.

-Temperature sensors (thermistors) measure the relevant temperatures for the printing process, i.e. the extruder temperature,​ the print bed temperature and the build chamber temperature. All thermistors deliver their input signal to the microcontroller and thus effect switching on and off the according heating resistor.\\ The extrusion temperature is measured at the [[#Extruder head components|heating block]] near the heating resistor and the relevant values for the control of the latter.\\ The print bed temperature is measured directly at the heating pad with which it is looped in a control circuit.\\ The build chamber sensor is installed at the elevator assembly and measures the air temperature inside the build chamber. Its measurements influence the control of the heating resistors inside the [[#Build chamber|heating elements]].+</​WRAP>​
