4.2. Welcome wizard- Calibration
1.
Please make sure that the bed is clean and there are
no residues / dirt on the nozzles. You can use the
metal brush to clean the nozzle.
2.
Remove every object that may be blocking the bed
moving all the way down.
◊
This process will take roughly 30 min. in total.
Don’t worry: most of it is automatic due to our
mesh leveling system.
3.
Push Next on your screen.
4.
In the first stage the printer will automatically check
the lowest point of the bed can reach and also heat
up the heads to PLA 215C° temperature. Press Next
to start the automatic process.
Offset calibration
The offset calibration requires manual adjustment on the
printer. This calibration process calibrates the following
parameters:
Z limit distance:
Required for resuming a print job.
BL-Touch - nozzle offset:
Required for the assisted bed
and mesh bed leveling.
Bed leveling
»
Make the build plate parallel to the XY mechanics,
and set the 0 distance between the nozzle and the
build plate.
»
The assisted bed calibration requires you to manually
adjust the build plate. It will be adjusted using the 3
knob screws at the bottom of the build plate. There
is one knob at the front in the middle, and two in the
back left and right corners of the build plate.
»
At the beginning of the process the printer measures
the distance between the build plate and the nozzle
tip using the BL-Touch sensor. If the distance is not
optimal, calibration will begin.
»
The print head begins the measurement at the front
center calibration point. At the bottom of the screen,
you can see the scale of the measured distance.
»
If the nozzle is too far, the markings are densely
spaced. The arrows below the markings indicate
which direction the knob should be turned to achieve
optimum adjustment.
»
To achieve the optimum value, the meter should be
wrapped between two prominent lines.
»
After 3 optimal measurements, the NEXT button
appears. If one or more of the 3 measurements is out
of range, the calibration will not continue and will
need to be adjusted using the knob.
