It's those long skinny rectangular boxes - one of which is just above the person's hand. It's very fancy and keeps track if the feeder in the MS is running slightly too fast or too slow than the feeder higher up on the printer itself. The MS then adjust the speed slightly in the MS so it doesn't get too far ahead or behind the feeder on the printer.
Thanks for the reply gr5. The photos in the ER52 notes only showed the filament motor drive mechanism. I thought that might be called the decoupler for some reason.

A year after the merger of Ultimaker and MakerBotQQ, we have unlocked the ability for users of our Method series printers to slice files using UltiMaker Cura. As of this release, users can find profiles for our Method and Method XL printers, as well as material profiles for ABS-R, ABS-CF, and RapidRinse. Meaning it’s now possible to use either Cura or the existing cloud-slicing software CloudPrint when printing with these printers or materials
