Is the bed mesh automatically apllied?

Hi just a quick question. After I did a bed mesh and saved it to the default profile is it automatically apllied when I start printing? Or do I need a G29 L1 type of command? I’m sorry to say but the documentation misses a lot of basic stuff and it’s hard to find qucik answers to simple questions like these.

The default mesh is loaded upon Klipper start. No need to load or activate.

If you want to generate profiles depending bed temperature (something I’d recommend) then save your mesh with:

BED_MESH_PROFILE SAVE=name

and load it, e.g. in your slicer’s start code with:

BED_MESH_PROFILE LOAD=name

Note: Every run of BED_MESH_CALIBRATE will replace your default regardless if you save it under a new name or not.

That’s a nice tip. Will surly do that. Thanks.

would it make sense to save and load the bed meshes as {bed_temp} or such?
like LOAD={bed_temp} then we could have meshes for all bed temps we use

Yes it would. Some users do so.
