There are two modes that control whether the camera or the USB port is in use: Auto Mode and Manual Mode.
When the camera is on, a camera icon will appear in the status bar, as shown in the image below and to the left. When the USB port is activated and a USB drive has been successfully connected, a USB disk icon will appear in the status bar, as shown in the image below and to the right.

Perform the following steps to replace the nozzle. 1. Remove any installed filament, then turn the printer off and allow all parts to cool before touching the extruder and nozzle.
Q1: Do I need to perform extruder calibration after replacing the nozzle? CALIBRATION A1: Yes, perform extruder calibration as detailed in the section above. Q2: What do I do if the displayed extruder temperature is abnormal (e.g. 300°C) or is not showing at all? REPLACING A2: The nozzle is not installed correctly.
