From the Touch Screen
1.
Navigate to the “Macros” menu on the touch screen.
2.
Select the “Clear Probe Errors” mac
ro.
3.
Verify the bed probe has a solid red light.
Note:
If there is no light, verify that the probe is not extended by selecting the “Retract Probe” macro from the Macros menu. If t
he probe still has no light, visit
our support page at support.3dplatform.com for more troubleshooting tips.
4.
Select the “Bed Compensation” button on the touch screen.
5.
Monitor the machine during compensation to ensure proper functionality.
6.
Allow the bed compensation to complete without powering down the machine (unless for an emergency).
Once completed, the bed compensation will save a “.csv” file to the internal memory on the controller. This file will then
allow the controller to compensate for any high or low spots on the bed during a print. This process will need to be
completed following a nozzle change, extruder change, and after each routine manual bed leveling.
From the Web Interface
1.
Navigate to the “Macros” menu on the left side of the web interface.

Macros
The Duet Wi-Fi controller allows the user to define certain processes that are repeated frequently through the g-code
console to be automated through a macro. The Duet Wi-Fi controller comes standard from the 3D Platform factory with
several macros useful for the successful operation of the printer. The following steps will allow a user to run a
predefined macro. If you wish to create your own macros visit our support page at support.3dplatform.com for more
information.
