    • Make sure the bed is clear before starting this macro!

    • The Build Bed Mesh macro must be ran for each bed temperature. So, you'll have one that matches the temperature in each of your filament profiles. For example: ABS/ASA(110C), PETG(80C), PLA (60C), TPU (35C)

    • To start the macro, select the dropdown arrow and enter the bed temperature (orange) that matches what's in your slicer profile. For Super Slicer, it's in the filament profile. Press Send (green)

    • The process is fully automated and will auto-save once complete, then the firmware restarts. To reiterate, This process will need to be repeated for each material bed temperature.

    • You can create all profiles sequentially, starting with the lowest temperature.

    • You should now see each mesh saved/ displayed as a mesh profile with the bed temperature as the name.

    • Do not change this name as the Print_Start macro is looking for specific parameters.

Finish Line
