ok. silly question time.

What do the extra 'nophead' buttons do in pronterface? i.e BL, BM, BL I assume those are Back Left, etc? What would you need them for? I can't work out Origin, FOFF and FON either?

Sorry winking smiley

BL = Back left
BM = Back Middle
BR = Back Right

Same for Front on FR, FM and FL.

FON and FOFF are fan on and fan off for the extruder fan.

Origin places the extruder at 0,0,0 in 3D space.

You need to have these points for calibration and bed leveling.

Yep,very nice for bed levelling. Slap on the dial gauge and let those buttons move it to the corners, adjust, done. Use the config.ini with the March version of pronterface if you're experiencing problems with them disappearing from the screen with the July version.
