Powercycle required after calibration fail?

I did an update of firmware and other files and then realized I had to re-calibrate. First attempt didn’t get enough precision so I tried to restart and saw nothing show up in the serial window, so I closed and re-opened the maslow.local… that seemed to work but then after retract, extend, calibration start it moved once and then said calibration values too low.

Just want to confirm that a power cycle of the Maslow4 is required when running a second calibration?

Just having a poor fitness would not be enough to require a power cycle.

I think that it’s important that the machine starts out in the middle of the sheet, but I’m not sure that full power cycle is actually needed.

Ok, my experience has been that after a calibration where I don’t have good fitness, I no longer see any text in the serial window, and subsequent calibration tries appear to execute with Maslow4 movement, but ultimately fail and I have no feedback.

also I have some UI feedback that I just discovered. Will post a new topic for this
