Thanks! So you don’t need a probe for your firmware? Currently I have none attached, but I wouldn’t mind the work of attaching one. But if there’s a way to do mesh leveling without probe that would also be nice.
Do you use it with Octoprint or similar?
I'm using a bl-touch. So the firmware will need to know the delta between the tip of the probe and your extruder (the z-offset).
I doubt creating a mesh without a probe is possible. At the moment I use a mesh with 9*9 points. This gets saved to eeprom and (see the other comment) loaded at startup using a g-code. I let it do a three-point probe after hearing the bed, so the software knows if it needs to tilt the mesh.
I do use octoprint, but these capabilities are all embedded in the software by mriscoc.
Ah okay, thanks for your information. Will look up on custom firmwares for my printer. Hopefully there is something stable :)
Recently switched from Marlin to Klipper. It looks like there is a sample configuration for your N32 board. Maybe a good custom firmware for your printer..
To flatten the learning curve, I've installed the Mainsailos image on a raspberry pi 4 and followed a lot of documentation / YT to get things up and running. The results are great, still got to get input shaping and the resonance measurements, but quite a difference!
