Yes, the center should be zeroed, however, the hotend does not have to be the same level as the dial gauges, so the dial gauges can extend beneath the tip of the hotend.duvdev wrote:Hi'
thanks for the update. jusk got myselt the dial indicator. should be set to 0 when the hotend touch the center of the palte with the paper? and then start the calibration process?
thanks
I should mention this as well. If your dial gauges cannot be zeroed, no negative values can be measured (negative in your case, so the plate is physically lower). A fix for this would be to offset your horizontal radius so ALL values around the outside of the plate are able to be measured. This new horizontal radius will need to be entered into the program. You may also have to change the horizontal radius after each iteration, but this is a work around.
