Clearing up some confusion #75

Closed AndrewEllis93 closed 1 year ago

AndrewEllis93 commented 1 year ago

We frequently have users in the Voron Discord who are very confused by how this Z calibration works, and as a result either struggling to set it up, or setting it up incorrectly.

Particularly users who have no idea that they need a good base Z calibration first, and will set the max_deviation very high instead. Then, if calibration ever fails, they will dig a trench through their PEI.

I think it would clear up a lot of confusion if it were made clear in the documentation/naming that it's auto baby stepping rather than auto calibration. That might indicate to more people that they need to still use Z_ENDSTOP_CALIBRATE and have a reasonable position_endstop.
