Spoolman does not detect anything. To automate things your slicer needs to be set up so that each material has an corresponding Spoolman ID in it's data, and your printer needs to have SET_ACTIVE_SPOOL and CLEAR_ACTIVE_SPOOL macros defined. This is how my GCodes are set up in Orca Slicer: I set this for every Material I have, so when I start I print I don't have to select a spool manually. Same if I switch materials in the slicer the switch for Spoolman works without intervention. My printer has corresponding macros set up here in Moonraker: https://moonraker.readthedocs.io/en/latest/configuration/#spoolman Hope that helps |
