+# Multi-extruder and multi-AMS device control
+
+`DeviceManager`/`MachineObject` model the toolheads, AMS units, and filament slots of a connected
+printer and drive the device-control UI from that model. The model represents the counts as
+device-reported runtime values rather than compile-time caps, so a printer with an arbitrary number
+of toolheads, several AMS units, and a non-uniform number of slots per unit is handled by the same
+code paths. The printer agent is responsible for translating its printer's state into the shared
+JSON dialect this model consumes; the agent boundary is described in
+[printer-agent.md](printer-agent.md), and this document describes the dialect and the model.
+
+## Model layout
+
+`MachineObject` owns the device subsystems that this document covers:
+
+- `DevExtderSystem` — the toolheads (extruders) and their per-toolhead filament/temperature state.
+- `DevFilaSystem` — the AMS units (`DevAms`) and their trays (`DevAmsTray`).
+- `DevNozzleSystem` — the nozzles and, on rack printers, `DevNozzleRack`.
+- `DevFilaSwitch` — a filament switch that can feed several AMS units to more than one extruder.
+
+Each subsystem exposes its own count — `DevExtderSystem::GetTotalExtderCount()`,
+`DevFilaSystem::GetAmsCount()`, `DevAms::GetSlotCount()` — and the rest of the application derives
+its layout from those values rather than from fixed assumptions.
+
+## Wire dialect
+
+The dialect is the Bambu-shaped JSON that `DeviceManager` and `MachineObject` already consume. An
+agent whose printer speaks something else is expected to translate into it; the agent is not free
+to invent a new shape. Two representations coexist for extruders, and one for AMS/slots.
+
+### Extruders
+
+The generic representation is `print.device.extruder`, parsed by
+`ExtderSystemParser::ParseV2_0` (`DevExtruderSystem.cpp`). It has a packed `state` integer and an
+`info` array with one object per toolhead:
+
+```text
+device.extruder.state           packed integer
+  bits  0..3   total extruder count
+  bits  4..7   current extruder id
+  bits  8..11  target extruder id
+  bits 12..14  switch state
+  bits 15..18  currently loading extruder id
+  bit   19     busy for loading
+
+device.extruder.info[]          one entry per toolhead
+  id          extruder id
+  filam_bak   array of backup-group bits
+  info        bit 1 has filament, bit 2 buffer has filament, bit 3 nozzle present
+  temp        bits 0..15 current temperature, bits 16..31 target temperature
+  spre        slot_id bits 0..7, ams_id bits 8..15 (previous)
+  snow        same packing (current)
+  star        same packing (target)
+  stat        bit 0..15 AMS status, bits 16..31 RFID status
+  hnow        current nozzle id
+```
+
+The legacy single/dual representation is the pair of scalar fields `nozzle_temper` /
+`nozzle_target_temper`, plus the `print.ams.tray_tar` / `tray_now` tray pointer, parsed by
+`ExtderSystemParser::ParseV1_0`. That parser is a fallback and only fills the main extruder when the
+reported toolhead count is one.
+
+Physical extruder ids are fixed (`MAIN_EXTRUDER_ID = 0`, `DEPUTY_EXTRUDER_ID = 1`). Bambu printers
+present the two toolheads as a left/right pair and invert the physical-to-logical mapping; generic
+printers use the toolhead id itself as the logical id. `DevNozzle::GetLogicExtruderId()` /
+`GetExtruderId()` centralise that distinction.
+
+### AMS units and slots
+
+AMS units arrive as `print.ams.ams[]` and are parsed by `DevFilaSystemParser::ParseV1_0`. Each unit
+carries an `id` and an `info` bitfield:
+
+```text
+info bits  0..3    type: 0 dummy, 1 AMS, 2 AMS-Lite, 3 N3F, 4 N3S, 5 AMS-Lite-mixed (N9)
+info bits  8..11   bound extruder id (0xE marks a switch-bound unit)
+info bits 24..27   switch inlet when the unit is switch-bound
+```
+
+`DevAmsType` (`DevDefs.h`) enumerates the resulting unit kinds: `EXT_SPOOL`, `AMS`, `AMS_LITE`,
+`N3F`, `N3S`, and the `AMS_LITE_MIXED` N9 variant. `AMS_LITE_MIXED` reports itself as `AMS_LITE` to
+generic callers; code that needs the distinction uses `IsAmsLiteMixed()`.
+
+A unit whose bound-extruder nibble is `0xE` is switch-bound: it is kept only when a `DevFilaSwitch`
+is installed, in which case its extruder id is pinned to the main extruder and its binding set
+becomes `{0, 1}`; otherwise the unit is dropped from the AMS list.
+
+Each unit owns a map of `DevAmsTray` keyed by the tray id from the payload. The slot count is a
+property of the unit kind and the reported trays:
+
+- `AMS`, `AMS_LITE`, and `N3F` report four slots on Bambu printers, matching the firmware contract;
+- `N3S` reports one slot;
+- `EXT_SPOOL` and any non-Bambu unit report the number of trays actually present.
+
+The tray ids are the payload's slot indices; they are expected to be unique, 0-based, and contiguous
+within a unit, because the generic tray-index mapping below is cumulative.
+
+### External spool slots
+
+External/manual spools are virtual trays in `MachineObject::vt_slot`, separate from the trays owned
+by `DevFilaSystem`. Their stable id is `vt_id = VIRTUAL_TRAY_MAIN_ID - extruder_id`: 255 for
+extruder 0, 254 for extruder 1, then 253, 252, and so on. The index in `vt_slot` is therefore
+`VIRTUAL_TRAY_MAIN_ID - vt_id`, not the order in which a printer happens to report trays.
+
+For non-Bambu printers, slot topology comes from the live `DevExtderSystem` extruder count, not from
+external-spool telemetry. `MachineObject::ensure_external_virtual_tray_slots()` grows `vt_slot` to
+one entry per extruder and enables virtual-tray support even when the agent reports no `vir_slot`,
+`vt_tray`, or external-spool data. It only adds missing entries, so reported tray metadata is kept.
+The shared ensure runs after push-status parsing has updated the extruder count and after the generic
+AMS/agent-filament parsers. Thus agents may report external-spool metadata, but do not have to invent
+empty slots just to make each toolhead's external-spool row visible.
+
+When a payload does report virtual trays, `vir_slot` entries are placed by their id and missing
+indices are filled with placeholders. Generic agent `external` entries are likewise placed by
+extruder id, so sparse or out-of-order reports do not shift a spool onto another toolhead. An empty
+placeholder represents the slot's existence, not a claim that the printer reported a loaded spool.
+Bambu keeps its fixed 255/254 virtual-tray pair and does not use generic slot synthesis.
+
+## Mapping
+
+Several subsystems relate AMS units, trays, and extruders, and more than one place derives a tray
+index. Bambu mapping computes `ams_id * 4 + slot_id` for its fixed-width units; generic mapping in
+`DevFilaSystem` and the sidebar matcher uses the count of lanes in preceding units plus the slot id.
+The two agree for Bambu units and differ for a non-Bambu unit whose slot count is not four.
+
+### AMS id to extruder id
+
+`DevFilaSystem::GetExtruderIdByAmsId()` resolves an AMS id to the extruder it feeds:
+
+- an AMS unit returns its bound extruder (`DevAms::GetExtruderId()`);
+- a virtual tray returns `VIRTUAL_TRAY_MAIN_ID - vt_id`;
+- Bambu's virtual AMS ids map to the main/deputy extruder.
+
+A unit may be bound to more than one extruder when a `DevFilaSwitch` feeds it; the binding set
+(`DevAms::m_binded_extruder_set`) and switch inlet are read by switch-aware code while the
+single-extruder id stays pinned for legacy callers.
+
+### Tray index
+
+`DevFilaSystem::GetTrayIndexMap()` maps a global tray index to an `(ams_id, slot_id)` pair and is
+used for backup-slot translation, calibration addressing, and the mapping popups.
+
+- Bambu AMS: `ams_id * 4 + slot_id`; N3S: the AMS id; AMS-Lite-mixed (N9): `24 + slot_id`.
+- Generic (non-Bambu): a running lane index — the count of trays in preceding units plus the slot
+  id. This depends on each unit's tray ids being 0-based and contiguous.
+
+The sidebar sync matcher uses the same identities. Bambu retains its fixed left/right AMS and
+external-spool choices. For a generic printer, a full sync considers AMS units according to their
+bound extruder ids and considers every external slot by `255 - vt_id`; a split left/right mapping
+still restricts itself to the corresponding legacy extruders 0 and 1. Generic AMS lanes use the
+cumulative tray index above, while their `ams_id`/`slot_id` pair remains the address used to update
+the matching sidebar entry. The runtime filament-list configs also carry a transient device-extruder
+association so generic entries are grouped under the correct toolhead after sync; that association
+is removed before the configs enter the slicing pipeline. Bambu keeps the existing key-based
+left/right grouping.
+
+### Virtual-slot recognition
+
+`devPrinterUtil::IsVirtualSlot()` decides whether an id denotes a virtual tray. On Bambu printers it
+is the fixed pair `{255, 254}`. On generic printers it is the descending range
+`[255 - count + 1, 255]`, where `count` is the selected printer preset's extruder count. Slot
+topology is grown from the live device extruder count, while this recognition range still uses the
+preset count; the preset is expected to match the connected device. A mismatch can therefore make
+the recognized virtual-id range disagree with `vt_slot`, and is reported by the existing count
+warning rather than silently accepted.
+
+## Device-control UI
+
+The device-control widgets follow the same device-reported counts.
+
+- `AMSModel` (`AMSItem.hpp`) mirrors `DevAmsType` numerically: `EXT_AMS`, `GENERIC_AMS`, `AMS_LITE`,
+  `N3F_AMS`, `N3S_AMS`. A plain `AMS` maps to `GENERIC_AMS`.
+- On non-Bambu printers `use_generic_ams_layout()` routes `GENERIC_AMS` units through a variable-lane
+  rendering that draws one lane per reported tray; Bambu keeps its fixed four-slot rendering.
+- `AMSControl` picks its layout by toolhead count, not vendor: `CreateAmsSingleNozzle` for one
+  toolhead, `CreateAmsDoubleNozzle` for two, and `CreateAmsMultiNozzle` (one preview and one AMS
+  simplebook per toolhead) for three or more. A two-toolhead generic printer therefore keeps the
+  legacy left/right presentation; that is deliberate.
+- The status panel builds external-spool entries from `MachineObject::vt_slot`; generic slot
+  synthesis keeps one empty entry available for each live toolhead even when the printer does not
+  report external-spool state.
+- The status panel's `ExtruderImage` renders one per-toolhead state per nozzle and is resized to
+  `GetTotalExtderCount()`. Non-Bambu printers choose the active toolhead through
+  `m_generic_nozzle_selector` (shown when more than one toolhead exists); Bambu keeps its left/right
+  `m_nozzle_btn_panel`. Nozzle temperature controls are created on demand per toolhead.
+
+## Constraints
+
+- **Single dialect.** The agent translates its protocol into this JSON; the model does not learn
+  vendor protocols. Extending the model with a new unit kind or field means extending the dialect.
+- **Runtime counts.** The agent reports toolhead count and AMS unit/tray data. The shared model derives
+  generic external-spool slot count from the parsed live toolhead count; nothing caps the number of
+  toolheads or generic slots except the id range and the Bambu contract described above.
+- **Extruder dialect invariants.** `device.extruder.state`'s count field must equal the length of
+  `info[]`, and `info[]` must be ordered by extruder id with `id` equal to the array index: the
+  parser places toolheads by array position while `GetExtderById()` indexes by id.
+- **One filament road per toolhead.** Each toolhead renders a single AMS filament road rather than an
+  independent per-toolhead road state. A generic scaffold that allowed the latter was removed as
+  unused; the one-extruder-per-toolhead road is the intended model.
+- **Preset/device agreement.** The generic layout and virtual-slot range derive their count from the
+  selected printer preset. A printer preset must therefore declare the same number of
+  `nozzle_diameter` entries as the device has toolheads. A mismatch is surfaced only as a log warning
+  (`StatusPanel::check_extruder_count_mismatch()`), deliberately log-only, because the sidebar and
+  extruder logic would otherwise silently disagree.
+- **Bambu compatibility.** Bambu-specific presentation (left/right pair, fixed 4-slot units, fixed
+  virtual ids, physical/logical inversion) is preserved behind the vendor check. Generic paths do
+  not alter it.
+- **Tray-index invariant.** The generic tray-index map is cumulative, so payload tray ids must be
+  unique, 0-based, and contiguous per unit. A malformed id is a producer error.
+- **Protocol markers.** The dialect has no neutral equivalent for some Bambu state, so agents that
+  lack it send empty `print.cfg`, `print.fun`, `print.aux`, and `print.stat`. Their presence selects
+  the new-protocol parse path; they are compatibility markers, not feature switches.
