Custom gcode

The gMax 2 PRO has several useful custom gcode routines pre-installed. Up to 15 routines can be
utilized and they can be added by modifying the config.ini file. Note to add your own custom routines
you must use "/n" between gcode commands to add new lines.
Raise Z 100
Raise the z axis 100mm. Useful for changing nozzles or cleaning the hotend. Press twice to get
enough clearance for changing nozzles.
Level X-Axis
Can be used to mechanically level the x-axis and set a baseline before a print. The printer will
home then the extruder will move all the way to the right off the bed. The extruder will then lower
below the bed until the x-axis arm bumps against the side plates then it will raise back up. This process
can be repeated and the printer must be bed leveled after it is complete.
Preheat PLA Both
This will preheat both nozzles (for dual chimera extruders) to 200C.
