Dobot Magician - AutoZ


#1

The AutoZ button in Write & Draw doesn’t appear to do anything.

I would assume the button would make sure the pen always touches the paper correctly?

What is the purpose of the button and how do I get it to work?

Additionally, how does the Magician detect pressure at it’s endpoint - is that even possible for it?

Yes it will read the Z value and make sure the pen touches the paper at next time, you can refer the user manual for detailed info:

But Magician have no sensor to detect the pressure, just two angle sensor for reading angles.
