¶ How to verify completion/success
1. Connect the AMS to the printer and power on the printer to supply power to the AMS. The indicator light on the first stage feeder should illuminate, indicating normal power supply.
2. Load a filament with an RFID chip and ensure that AMS recognizes the filament correctly. Click "Load" to feed the filament, and confirm that AMS successfully delivers the filament to the extruder.
Otherwise, retrace your steps, check the connections, and try again. If problems persist, contact the technical support team for further assistance.
¶ Calibration step after the procedure
No further calibration is necessary.
