Calibration methods

Endstop (Z_ENDSTOP_CALIBRATE)

Available when an physical endstop is defined for [stepper_z]

See Klipper documentation: Calibrating a Z endstop

Probe (PROBE_CALIBRATE)

Available when a probe is defined. (BL-Touch is a probe)

See Klipper documentation: Calibrating probe Z offset

Bed mesh (BED_MESH_CALIBRATE)

Available when a probe is not defined and [bed_mesh] is defined

this mode lets you create a mesh leveling bed using the paper test in various points.

Warning

DO NOT adjust the bed screws while using this mode.

Adjust the screws using the bed screws panel before running this tool.

Delta Automatic/Manual (DELTA_CALIBRATE)

Available when the kinematics are defined as delta.

See Klipper documentation: Delta calibration
