Interface modes
There are two main operation modes, auto mode and manual mode.
Manual mode provides greater flexibility over the desired result. This mode
works with both pre-extruded filament and directly from a live extruder.
It’s important to keep in mind that when using direct extrusion, the roller speed
must match the extrusion speed of the extruder.
Auto mode is designed for use with pre-extruded filament, for example, directly
from a spool. It features pre-set values for ease of use. It is not recommended to
use this mode when feeding filament directly from a live extruder because the
speeds are set and may not match your extrusion speed.
In the following section, both modes are elaborated upon in greater detail.
