      Hi,

      In the documentation on calibrating a delta and updating config.g with the update values there are these statements:

      "If the calibration errors are small, a single execution of bed.g will calibrate your printer accurately."

      "5. If you are happy that the calibration is close to correct when you power up"

      Question: When are calibration errors considered to be "small"

      Question: How do I know if I am happy with the results?

      Thanks.

      Frederick

        I've just updated that page, and I hope it's clearer now.

          Thank you very much.

          I am rebuilding my printer and now I know what to look for.

          If I don't get good results I don't what what to do (yet) but I assume there are steps to follow.

              Hi,

              No I had not found that section - it appears to answer all of my questions.

              Got to hand it to you all - you have some first rate documentation - one of the reasons I am rebuilding all of my printers with DuetWifi boards.

              Thanks much.
