2. Setting the Compensation Values
When you have obtained the platform
height values for all nine positions,
find the lowest value among the
values.
In this example, the first calibration
point has the lowest value and is thus
the highest point on the platform. The
platform does not need to rise any
higher than the lowest value.
Move the nozzle to the point on the
platform with the lowest platform
height value as determined in Step 7
and click the "Set Nozzle Height"
button.
As shown on the left, when the
platform is at the "nozzle height," only
part of the platform is close enough to
the nozzle. Therefore, you need to
set the compensation values for all of
the other calibration points to inform
the printer about the distance
between the nozzle and the print
surface throughout the XY plane.
After setting the nozzle height, the drop-down menu next to the nine position buttons
will be available. A compensation value between 0–1.0mm will be available for
selection.
To calculate the compensation value:
Platform Height - Nozzle Height = Compensation Value
