root 9624c1fb74 Remove: CALIBRATION_FULL and CALIBRATION_QUICK macros
These automated calibration suites don't work correctly because:

1. CALIBRATE_Z_OFFSET requires manual interaction (TESTZ/ACCEPT/ABORT)
   - Paper test cannot be automated
   - Macro continued without waiting for user input

2. CALIBRATE_PRESSURE_ADVANCE requires visual inspection
   - User must examine squares and choose best PA value
   - Cannot be automated

3. CALIBRATE_TEMPERATURE requires visual inspection
   - User must examine tower sections for quality
   - Cannot be automated

4. CALIBRATE_RETRACTION requires visual inspection
   - User must examine towers for stringing
   - Cannot be automated

CORRECT WORKFLOW:
Run calibration macros individually from CALIBRATION_MENU:
1. CALIBRATE_Z_OFFSET (manual, one-time)
2. CALIBRATE_INPUT_SHAPER (automatic, one-time)
3. CALIBRATE_PRESSURE_ADVANCE (per filament)
4. CALIBRATE_FLOW_RATE (per filament)
5. CALIBRATE_TEMPERATURE (per filament)
6. CALIBRATE_RETRACTION (per filament)
7. CALIBRATE_BED_MESH (periodic)

Updated CALIBRATION_MENU to show correct workflow.

🎯 Calibration Suite for Neptune 4 Plus with Cartographer

Installation

  1. Clone repo to config directory:

    cd ~/printer_data/config
    git clone https://git.sky-net.it/nocci/open4neptune-new.git
    
  2. Copy calibration folder:

    cp -r open4neptune-new/calibration/ ~/printer_data/config/
    
  3. The include is already in optimized_user_settings.cfg:

    [include calibration/*.cfg]
    
  4. Restart Klipper

Option B: Direct include in printer.cfg

  1. Copy calibration folder to ~/printer_data/config/calibration/

  2. Add to printer.cfg (at the end, after other includes):

    [include calibration/*.cfg]
    
  3. Restart Klipper

Test Installation

; In Mainsail/Fluidd Console:
CALIBRATION_MENU

Macros Overview

  • CALIBRATION_MENU - Main menu with all options
  • CALIBRATE_Z_OFFSET - Cartographer Z0 calibration
  • CALIBRATE_INPUT_SHAPER - ADXL resonance measurement
  • CALIBRATE_PRESSURE_ADVANCE - PA tuning
  • CALIBRATE_FLOW_RATE - Flow rate calibration
  • CALIBRATE_TEMPERATURE - Temperature tower
  • CALIBRATE_RETRACTION - Retraction tuning
  • CALIBRATE_BED_MESH - Bed mesh verification
  • CALIBRATION_FULL - Run all calibrations in sequence

Quick Start

; In Mainsail Console or Fluidd Console:
CALIBRATION_MENU

Notes

  • All macros use Cartographer for precise measurements
  • Results are automatically saved with SAVE_CONFIG
  • Each macro includes safety checks and clear instructions
  • Designed for both Original and Bambu Lab hotends
