Print head status LED

Hey all!

Is there anywhere a documentation about the status LEDs in the print heads? I search in the prusa help for this information, but only found something about the status led under the LCD.

Best Answer by KC:

I wondered about that also. So I asked Prusa.

Question to Prusa Chat: What is the purpose of the light panels on the front left side of the Nextruder?

Answer: Those will particularly indicate some states of the tool head. Green flashing LED is just that the tool head is OK and docked in the back. If you keep the tool head undocked, it will turn yellow. When docked to the tool changer it will flash white/light blue, so it is mainly to indicate the state of the tool head.

I guess, they should add this to the XL manual and to the documentation.
