hey, I am trying to make spoolman update my filament usage but it's not working. I have set the Spool id to a lane like described in the documentation.

I used to have HH running but i reverted back to AFC could this mess things up?

this is the command i used SET_SPOOL_ID LANE=<lane> SPOOL_ID=<spool_id>. when running it did not give any errors or anything

Do you have the HH preprocessor still installed?

#

Sombody mentioned that i have this extra field in spoolman which is HH generated

tall marlin Do you have the HH preprocessor still installed?

Not shure how can i check

#

i uninstalled HH via the installation script

#

so i guess its gone

Have you cleared the HH things out of your slicer as well?

fiery crystal Oct 28, 2025, 3:31 PM

#

i did not do the slicer settings for HH

#

did not like it for a first time user so i switched back to AFC

#

but print is almost done then i'll generate the logs

Which lane did you run set spool id for? Cause none of you lanes have an id set

fiery crystal Oct 28, 2025, 4:11 PM

#

Lane 4

modest wave Oct 28, 2025, 4:12 PM

#

Is lane 4 loaded to your toolhead currently? Cause if you run set spool id for lane 4 you should see it also populate in your spoolman section

#

So it should be something like this, just substitute for correct spoolid

SET_SPOOL_ID LANE=lane4 SPOOL_ID=12345

jup one moment

#

#

Still not showing active spool

Can you run the debug script again please

Ok looks like it is now set, when you start klipper does the spool populate in spoolman dialog?

fiery crystal Oct 28, 2025, 4:22 PM

#

ok so just restart the pi then?

#

yeah now its populated

modest wave Oct 28, 2025, 4:22 PM

#

fiery crystal ok so just restart the pi then?

Or just klipper in the top right

Also just looked at the code again, and it looks like when setting spoolid while a lane is loaded it does not update the spoolman dialogue, I was originally wrong. But if a lane was not loaded and spoolid was set spoolman dialogue would be updated once the lane is loaded.

So looks like set_spool_id macro need an update to add setting active spool of that lane is loaded 😑

fiery crystal Oct 28, 2025, 4:25 PM

#

So for what variable do you search in the logs to see the population?

#

so i can check myself

#

and to be shure it should not be a problem to turn the Pi of right?

modest wave Oct 28, 2025, 4:26 PM

#

fiery crystal So for what variable do you search in the logs to see the population?

Look in AFC.var.unit file, this is where the data is stored.

#

And then when klipper starts AFC restores previous state from this file

fiery crystal Oct 28, 2025, 4:26 PM

#

ahh yeah now i see

#

well thank you! but now ill need to weigh every spool 😑

modest wave Oct 28, 2025, 4:27 PM

#

fiery crystal ahh yeah now i see

Also it's better to not edit this file as well, just word of caution

fiery crystal Oct 28, 2025, 4:28 PM

#

thank you for the heads up. not that i was planning on changing it

#

i think i know what went wrong. I was looking at the filament ID instead of the Spool ID

#

😅

Btw will you make a git issue or should I report it?

If you don't mind to create an issue that would be awesome

#

But if it don't see one created when I get around to it I would create the issue

fiery crystal Oct 29, 2025, 11:35 AM

#

I will create one
