The stepper motors divides a full rotation in a number of equal steps.
E-Steps tuning is a process of setting the exact number of steps need it for pushing a fix amount of filament for feeding the hot-end.
{{ snipped.subSection("E-Steps") }}
You will have to:
Mark a specific length of filament at the extruder motor entrance;
Set the hot-end on a printing temperature in E-Steps tab;
Set the extrusion length and speed;
Press "Start extrusion";
When extrusion finished, check the remaining length between the extruder and the filament mark location;
Refresh the current values from EEPROM;
Feed data collected in E-Steps tab and save the results in EEPROM;
{{ snipped.subSection("X-Y-Z Steps") }}
You will have to:
Print a test cube with a known size on all three axes X,Y,X;
Refresh the current values from EEPROM;
Feed data collected in E-Steps tab and save the results in EEPROM;
{{ snipped.subSection("PID Autotune") }}
You will have to:
Refresh the current values from EEPROM;
Set the hot-end index which you want to tune;
Set the usual temperature used in your prints for that specific hot-end;
Set the usual fan speed used in your prints;
Monitor temperature tab, when it starts to cool down save the results in EEPROM;
For tuning heated bed the index is already set on -1;
