###### FLOW MULTIPLIER CALIBRATION ######
#########################################
# Written by Frix_x#0161 #
# https://github.com/Frix-x/klipper-voron-V2/blob/main/macros/calibration/calibrate_flow.cfg
# @version: 1.5
# CHANGELOG:
# v1.5: moved the install notes into a proper markdown file in: doc > features > flow_calibration.md
# v1.4: fix issue when extrude_factor is != 1
# v1.3: fix the logging
# v1.2: fix for those using absolute extrusion that leads to an error
# v1.1: added part cooling fan control and some speed optimizations
# v1.0: first flow calibration macro
# -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# If you want to use it into your own config, please install it as a standalone macro as described in the
# installation section of this file: doc > features > flow_calibration.md
# -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
### What is it ? ###
# The main reason for this set of macros is to get a filament and slicer agnostic way to calibrate the flow extrusion multiplier.
# The goal is to make it easy to set, share and use it.
# This macro is parametric and most of the values can be adjusted with their respective input parameters.
# It can be called without any parameters - in which case the default values would be used - or with any combination of parameters as desired.
# Feel free to ping me on Discord (Frix_x#0161) if you need help or have any comments to improve it :)
# ===========================================================================================================
# DO NOT MODIFY THOSE VARIABLES (they are used internaly by the flow calibration macro)
