Automatic filament switch for large prints?

Is there a way to set up the XL to automatically switch to a new, loaded spool of filament when the first one runs out? We have a two tool machine, and have been printing some rather large things that run overnight and it would be great to have the machine continue the print with the other toolhead. Thank for any ideas!
