    Important: Don’t touch the bed during the calibration routine – it will trigger the sensors and disturb the calibration. Make sure Altair is not connected to your computer through the USB port during the Auto-Calibration routine. If the computer tries to access the printer (which it often does automatically) it can disturb calibration.
