OctoPrint bed visualizer gcode

I'm testing the OctoPrint Bed Visualizer plugin on my Core One. After some initial testing, I can run G28 to do homing, I can run M190 S50 in order to varm the bed to 50 degrees before testing testing, but nothing happens when I run the rest of the script, the printer LED just turns green and it aborts. Anyone have a complete setup they'd like to share? Here's my try:

G28

M190 S50

G80

@BEDLEVELVISUALIZER

G81

Thanks, that works! My plan was to print some of these and see if I can level it further. https://www.printables.com/model/1289015-prusa-core-one-bedlevel-correction-dust-cover/comments

Here's the initial results:

That's better! I put a 0.4mm shim on the left front rod.

The better solution is to use a 3mm bolt under each of the legs of the bed, there is a hole there for this purpose, but as far as i recall, this is not included in the build instructions.

The better solution is to use a 3mm bolt under each of the legs of the bed, there is a hole there for this purpose, but as far as i recall, this is not included in the build instructions.

It was mentioned in a few posts in this forum, thanks for taking a photo of it. I'd suggest to place a nylock nut on the screw, so it won't turn by accident. Put the nut all the way to the screw head, level the bed and then tighten the nut onto the base floor to fixate the screw. 

It's similar to the nylock-mod for other printers. 

Btw: is there a way to get the values send to the PC or usb stick without Octoprint? I used a simple usb-cable with Pronterface for my mk3s.
