¶ How to verify completion/success
Connect the AMS to the printer and turn the power ON. Load filaments to all slots of the AMS and click "Load" on the screen to start loading the filament.
After the filament in slot 1 loads, choose AMS slot 2 to load the filament in slot 2, and then load the filament in slot 3 & slot 4.
