### Basic Information:

Printer Model: ender 3 v2 ish  
 MCU / Printerboard:btt mini e3 v3  
 Host / SBC laptop converted to klipper  
 klippy.log nonme  
[config-20240505-155534.zip](https://klipper.discourse.group/uploads/short-url/nll4ixCtVCaON3zJDLwR0rrQIGW.zip) (1.2 KB)

so i have been having issues with the one printer and kamp, i have installed 3 separate times. each time my bed level goes funky and unable to achieve decent level so i go back to regular non kamp settings and level goes back to normal, along with this my bed adhesion with kamp enabled is non existend, but no kamp ther is no issue.  
having said this i am confused as o how kamp would effect bed adhesion when then other two printers have no issues running kamp, they actually run flawlessly now that kamp is in there.  
any ideas?

Klipper 0.12.0 already has Adaptive Mesh included.

Hmm well I guess I missed that read?? Lol

So still confused as to why the one machine is having the issues but not the others?.  
I’m behind on my Klipper knowledge big time! My xc1 printers I pretty much hit print and don’t think much with them ha, but these Klipper printers seem to be the bane of my existence…. I will have to have a read and see maybe I will have to do a fresh install of Klipper for the one printer

</div>

if said config youjr speaking of on the link is the bed mesh with the added adaptive part well that has done nothing?  
i have scoured the link and and cant figure it out.

so what i am asking is a proper instruction as to get it up and running, my knowledge of klipper is limited until i see a proper instruction then i can begin to understand, this is what made the 80s and 90s so great, if you wanted instructions youd be provided a detailed book lol.

im honestly just trying to figure out all of this, and have found alot of the documentation confusing, and from what i have read online im not the only one who has had a hard time with some of it.  
so please bear with me as i am frustrated and not used to having such a hard time figuring it out.

The link explains how adaptive meshing works and gives an example with a diagram. Immediately below the diagram is a block from the printer.cfg that corresponds to the example. The very next section of the documentation describes the bed meshing gcodes and the first one is `BED_MESH_CALIBRATE`, which accepts a parameter `ADAPTIVE` that takes a value of either 0 for no or 1 for yes. So if you wanted to use adaptive meshing exactly like the example in the documentation, you’d use the example config block in your own config file, then pass `ADAPTIVE=1` as one of the parameters to `BED_MESH_CALIBRATE`.

Thank you but I don’t think it’s anything that I’ve done or what we have been doing… it’s something with this printer I will be making a post about it.

Thank you though!!
