Life After PINDA Replacement
Hey All,
I just replaced my PINDA probe and am having a very difficult time getting back to workable settings. I am not a super user, so I haven't aquired a lot of the tricks others use!
After I go through the calibration procedure and run the First Layer Calibration routine, I have to move the z-adjust to somewhere in the -1.7 range in order to get anything to stick. I was in the -0.25-0.30 range before.
The PINDA is just slightly higher than my nozzle (2 sheets of paper worth).
Any info/guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Ed

Hi Ed,
reset Live z towards Zero for safety, then raise the pinda higher, then re do the Live Z.
the bigger your live -Z value the nearer your nozzle is to the pinda height,
if you raise the Pinda 1 thread, your new live Z value should be around 0.7mm.
rather than two sheets of paper, Prusa recommend using a spare zip tie, as a spacer, this will be closer to your ideal setting.
