Bed Visualizer. Can it use manual mesh data?

Hi Folks, As above really, can Bed Visualizer use manually input mesh data or does it have to be data from say a BL touch? I was hoping to manually mesh level the 310 x 310 bed of my JGAURORA A1 and then import to Bed Visualizer to better help with getting the mesh spot on. One of the main reasons I bought a Pi4 and installed Octoprint was for this reason.

I hope someone can offer some advice!

Stay safe folks!

You can use manual mesh data, but it only collects it from the printer as far as I know - which is possible, firmware such as Marlin has an option for manual mesh collection.

Hi Charlie. Thanks so much for the reply! I have hope then. I will add this to the long list of "to do's"

It will all depend on if the firmware has a method of reporting the mesh points. In most cases I believe that is M420 V to report the mesh from EEPROM after you've run through the process.

Thanks for the reply. My printer firmware does collect the mesh data it seems. I look forward to trying the plug in! Thanks!
