Slow Z movement when leveling
-
Hi,
The printer is working well, but I've got a pretty large bed, with a thick piece of aluminum and glass, and when doing True Bed Leveling with the 3 Axis, I was wondering where the command it buried where the bed drops 15mm prior to doing each measurement. I can see that the bed slowly rises up to trigger the BL-Touch, but it drops really fast.
And I was just wanting to slow that a bit, so the momentum of the bed lowering doesn't mess with the leveling.
Can someone point me to where I would make the change in the GCode? As I don't seem to recognize it in the bed.g or the homeall.g or homez.g code.
Thanks.

From the M558 docs regards the T parameter:
Tnnn Travel speed to and between probe points (mm/min). This is also the Z lift speed after probing. The corresponding axis speed limits set by M203 will be used instead if they are lower.
If you want to keep the fast travel speed specified by T but have a slow lift speed you can make a temporary change to the max Z speed with the M203 command.

@fcwilt Thank you very much. I've got a 15 hour print going, but once it's done. I will play with those settings.
Thanks.
