The indicator light statuses are as follows:
Sequentially ashing white: All four lament
slots are empty.
Sequentially ashing red: A communication
connection is being established or a communication
error has occurred.
Solid white: Filament is loaded in
the slot and the unit is idle.
Breathing white: Filament is loaded in the slot and
the unit is busy, such as feeding lament or reading
RFID information.
Flashing red: An error occurs during printing or preloading.
White and red both o：
1.When lament is loaded in one slot, the LEDs of the other empty slots
remain o. This is normal.
2.When all four slots are empty, if the LED of any slot remains o, an error
has occurred and the slot should be checked.
