Switch bay calibration
The switch bay is what enables the lifting and lowering of the second print core. For successful dual extrusion
prints, it is important that the switching functions well. The switch bay is already calibrated when the Ultimaker 3
is shipped, but the calibration can also be done manually.
1.
Go to System > Maintenance > Calibration > Calibrate lift switch
2.
Move the lift switch on the side of the print head to point towards you.
3.
Move the print head so that the lift switch fits in the switching bay.
4.
Wait for the print head to go to the home position and test the lift switch.
5.
Did the lift switch lower and raise the print core? If so, press yes to complete the calibration. If not,
select no to perform the calibration again.
