Settings for Bowden tube lenght

Hello,

I have enclosure for my mk3 and I recently received my mmu2 upgrade.

I placed the MMU upside of the table but I needed longer Bowden tube from MMU to Extruder.

When I try to load filament (because the new tube is longer) it does not go up to extruder.

Although, the filament does not reach the extruder, the software still asks me if the color is correct or not.

Thanks for your help.

O.

Sorry I can't help directly other than to plead with prusa Devs to enable the bloody filament sensor on the extruder!! It would solve so many problems! May need a sensor mod/redesign but mercy me, it makes sense!

Are you referring to the calibration procedure over here: https://manual.prusa3d.com/Guide/Service+menu+-+Individual+Filament+Calibration/842#_ga=2.139714291.1177174050.1549847991-536087594.1496199363
or something different?
