      I have two 5 color diamond hotends and want to connect them so I can use them in alternating order, meaning one is completely off while the other is printing. Typical Dual extruder setup, only with diamond hotends.
      Using additional motor drivers would be fine and is probably the easiest way?!
      So I can just use a switch like these old parallel port selectors?

      Not sure how firmware reacts when switching temp sensors?

      A hardware solution would be nice, to not rely too much on firmware.

      Not looking for an excact solution, just something to research for.
