• You must have a bed or gantry that is raised/lowered by two, three or four leadscrews or similar, where each one is driven by its own Z motor
• Each Z motor must be driven from a separate stepper motor output on the Duet + optional DueX expansion board
• As usual with this arrangement, you must use M584 to assign the 2, 3 or 4 drivers to the Z axis
• You must use the M671 command to define the X and Y coordinates of the leadscrews. The M671 command must come after the M584 command and must specify the same number of X and Y coordinates as the number of motors assigned to the Z axis in the M584 command; and these coordinates must be in the same order as the driver numbers of the associated motors in the M584 command. The M671 command must also come after any M667 or M669 command.
• You can optionally specify a maximum correction per leadscrew in the M671 command (S parameter). If you don't, it defaults to 1mm.
• You must set up a bed.g file in the usual way with at least as many probe points as Z motors. You can have more if you wish.
• The value of the S parameter on the final G30 command in bed.g must equal the number of Z motors.

A valid M671 command enables auto calibration of the Z motors. When you run G32 to perform bed probing, the final G30 command (the one with the S parameter) in bed.g will then cause auto calibration to be performed. The auto calibration uses a least squares algorithm that minimises the sum of the height errors. The deviation before and expected deviation after calibration is reported.

If you have two Z motors, the calibration process adjusts the bed tilt along a line between the two leadscrew positions, on the assumption that the tilt at right angles to this will not change. With three motors, it adjusts the tilt in both directions. With four motors, it adjusts the tilt in both directions and also the twist. You should not use 4 leadscrews with a bed that is rigid enough to resist twisting strongly.

You can run G32 again to repeat the process if you wish.

If your bed is not perfectly flat or the gantry sags a little when the head is over the middle of the bed, the process will cause a small shift in the Z=0 position. To correct this, if you are using the Z probe to do Z homing, you can just re-home Z at the end of your bed.g file.

• If you have 3 or 4 Z motors, in bed.g use at least one probe point close to each leadscrew.
• If you have just 2 Z motors, one at each end of the X axis, then set the Y coordinates of the leadscrews in the M671 command to be equal (the value doesn't matter, so you can use zero). Use at least two probe points, one at each end of the X axis. All your probe points should have the same Y coordinate, which should be at or near the middle of the printable range.
