      I have a 4 into 1 mixing hot end, can I use the Duet3D Filament Monitors (4 of them) with a mixing hotend?

      So if I have each of the 4 extruders only supplying 25% each will any of the Duet3D Filament Monitors detect if any one extruders is failing? Would it tell me witch one?

      Thanks!

        @gallaghersart yes you can do that, and the filament monitors will tell you individually which extruders are working. If using Duet 3 boards then each filament monitor must be connected to the board that drives the corresponding extruder motor.
