When I'm loading material in my S5 the screen will show a little warning icon next to materials that I shouldn't load with the current print core. That's great, but it only works if the printer actually has a profile for the material you're loading.
I've got some glow in the dark PLA which works great with "generic PLA" settings, but the maker (MatterHackers) says it's abrasive and I should only use it with a CC print core. The problem is it's easy to forget when switching materials to switch the print core too.
What I want to do is create a profile for this material that'll warn me if I try to load it with the wrong print core installed, but I haven't been able to figure out how to do it.
Any suggestions?

Thanks! I think I'll go ahead with printing a box then.

New to the community. Appologies if this isn't the right place to ask this.
How are people storing their unused print cores on the S5?
I've got the 2 AA and 1 BB core that came with the printer and a CC core as well. Right now I'm leaving them in the foam of the accessory box and the CC in the cardboard box it came in, but that's a little scattered.
I found a box design on line I could print and store them in, but I worry about ESD.
Other thoughts?

I figured out how to do this.
Now, if you select your new material on the touch screen but don't have a compatible print core loaded the screen will warn you.
