RFID reading drying settings, how?

Bambu Lab AMS AMS HT

So I insert a Bambu filament, it reads the RFID correctly as it shows up in the software.

I am using this as the only AMS/filament right now in a P1S.

Now if I want to dry it, I can only see options on the printer display for manual drying? Doesn’t it/can’t it read this information via RFID? Not a biggie, it’s Bambu PC so I choose the PC preset.

Also, I then have to unload the filament, correct, so then it shows as Empty in the software, and only then can I do the drying (with rotation)?

So if drying is manual, there is no point loading the filament in the first place in order to read the RFID tag, I may aswell just put it in, do the drying and then load it when it’s dried?

Is that the correct workflow, apologies, the Wiki page isn’t really very useful.

I suppose what I was anticipating was placing the spool in the AMS HT (but not actually loading it) then maybe rotating it a few times so it reads the tag or something, this would then register it and then when I go to the printer display it would know what was and have chosen or indicated that it’s ready to dry.

In the store, it does say “AMS HT uses RFID to auto-match drying settings for Bambu official filaments, no manual input needed”, I just haven’t figure out how.

Same here, I though it would just be able to rotate the spool until it reads the RFID tag. I guess the only way it works now is if you leave the filament loaded.

But even then it doesn’t seem to show any automated drying settings, as advertised.

glad I’m not the only one seeing this. I’ve got some Bambu 85A TPU, which you can’t load the normal way, which means it’s not reading the RFID tag, which means I have to select the Generic TPU drying options.
