Use firmware values for time estimation: With this function enabled, you can refer to the parameters of the printer’s firmware to modify the settings of Acceleration, Feedrate and Jerk, and obtain a more accurate estimate of the printing time. If you enable the acceleration or jerk settings in the slicing profile, or write custom GCode to change the acceleration or jerk values, ideaMaker prioritize these values in the time estimate.

In addition, use the heating and cooling calibration function (to be online in the new version of RaiseTouch) to measure the heating and cooling parameters for different materials under different printers, and then import the parameter values into ideaMaker to obtain the estimated heating and cooling time.

Note: This function is disabled by default and is not recommended to be turned on.
