Plarform calibrate is the most important step for successfull printing, as it ensures the first
layer adhesion.The actaual calibration is done by measuring the distance between the nozzle
and platform.Ideally, the distance between nozzle and platform is constant, but in reality the
distance varies at different position due to many reasons (eg. slightly tilted platform.) To calibrate
the platform, we just need to tell the machine, on 9 calibration points, the height of plaform
that is touching the nozzle.The printer will able to compensate for distal errors base on our
measurements.The calibration procedure contains 2 parts:
1. Setting nozzle height.
2. Setting compensation values.

Platform calibration interface:
A. Moving Platform UP/DOWN:
click/hold the button, platform
will move accordingly.
B. Display the current platform
height.
C. Setting nozzle height: click this
will set the current platform
height as the nozzle height.
D. 9 calibration point buttons,
represent 9 positions on platform,
after clicking the nozzle will move
to the corresponding positions.
The drop down menu beside
