Calibration options: speed testing and roboxing calibration review

[pelgrim @pelgrim]

I ran most calibratoins and documented them in Roboxing Calibration Walkthrough:
Purge, clean bed
Nozzle Opening
Nozzle Height
Gantry
Level Y
X Test, Y Test, Z Test

Did someone use Speed Test, what does it do and is it usefull before you try your first print ?
Although most of what is in the walkthrough is rather obvious and/or redundant, it is not if you sit for the first time with a robox on your desk
and are wondering how to start using it the right way. It can also help people to get a glance of how things are done the robox way.
A review can not hurt, if you have some time left, please do and put a note if you see things that can improve (or just change it yourself).

Does anyone know what the last line in the table is and if it’s still needed ?

I used speed test, but only to distribute the machine oil applied to the rods as per CEL’s instructions.

In my case the calibration repeatedly failed on the nozzle calibration.This was due to too much play in the anti-backlash assembly, meaning the automatic bed levelling was not functioning correctly, which also explains the issues with getting the first layer to adhere to the bed properly.

If I get time tonight I’ll got through it all.
