P802 Automatic Leveling Debug Guide V2

The document provides a 5-step guide for automatic leveling debug of the P802 printer: 1. Prepare the printer and position sensor connections. Ensure proper operation of displays, buttons, and sensors. 2. Do preliminary leveling of the print bed manually by adjusting nuts and couplings to get the bed and extruder in the ballpark. 3. Assemble the position sensor and set the Z-offset value to calibrate the distance between the extruder and bed when the sensor is triggered. 4. Test the automatic leveling by printing a test file and adjusting the Z-offset as needed to achieve the proper 0.2mm distance. 5. Configure slicer start G

P802 Automatic Leveling Debug Guide

Version: 2.0
Step 1: Preparation

Please make sure the cable connections are correct.


Connecting the Postion Sensor(PS) to mainboard Z- Endstop Position(fig1).
Turn on the power, ensure that LCD display & keypad (or Knob) operating properly.
Let PS close to the printing platform, the light on the PS lighting when the distance about
3~5mm.(fig2) .
Before debugging,please make clear about the LCD operate Menu and the keypad (or Knob)
using.

Note:
1Please leveling by hand when the first time assembly finished.
2Please leveling by hand when the automatic leveling function be fail to level Z-Axial
platform.

Step 2: Preliminary Leveling


1.

Turn off power.

2.

Adjust the 4pcs nuts from the platform, keep them leveling (fig3).

3.

Measure the height of X-slide, ensure the right and the left distance almost same. (fig4),If the height (>1mm)
Turn the Z-coupling ensure them almost leveling.

4.

Adjust the extruder to Middle position , then turn the right and left Z-coupling synchronously, until the
distance about 0.5mm between the platform and the extruder(fig5) .

5.

Move extruder left and right, be attention to the distance between extruder and platform, adjust the lower Zcoupling ensure them almost leveling.

6.

Turn the right and left Z-coupling synchronously, adjust the distance almost 0.2mm between the extruder and
platform.

Step 3: Assemble PS and setting Z offset*


1.
2.
3.

Turn off power.


Assemble PS to Extruder platform(fig 6).
Turn Z-coupling synchronously(right & left), ensure the distance almost 0.2mm between extruder
and platform. Measure the height between the PS and platform and let it is about 2~3mm.
Otherwise please adjust PS position.
4. Clean the extruder head, ensure the extruder head hasn't extra filament.
5. Turn on power.
6. Operate keypad (or Knob) enter Prepear->Auto Home->confirm. Measure the height between the
extruder and platform, record this distance value.
7. Operate keypad (or Knob) enter control->Motion->Z Offset->confirm(fig 7), adjust Z offset to the
previous value(fig 8). We suggest you set a minor value when you first adjust.
8. Operate keypad (or Knob) enter control->Store memory save done setting (fig 9).
9. Operate keypad (or Knob) enter control->Load memory updata the setting (fig 10).
10. Operate keypad (or Knob) enter Prepear->Auto Home->confirm.
11. Operate keypad (or Knob) enter Prepear->Bed Leveling Test->confirm. Check if the height
between the extruder and platform is about 0.2mm.
12. Check the height between extruder and platform, Increase Z offset when the height too
[Link], Decrease Z offset if the height too small (repeat 7~11) .

*Note: Z offset means the distance between the extruder head and platform when PS is trigged!

4th step: Confirm.

Turn off power supplpy,insert SD card,then turn on power supply.


Select P802_automatic level_test.gcode from SD card, start to [Link] the distance
between extruder and platform,level again if it is not leveling.

Z offset is too high

Perfect Z offset

Z offset is too low

Step 5: Set the slicer software to add automatic leveling


In order to start an automatic level before printing , you need put the command G29 behind file
G28 for each printing file, please set the start g-code of the slicer software as below:

Slic3r

Kisslicer

Cura
