Why does RatRig remove hotend power while doing Z-tilt alignment?
I have noticed during the pre-print stage that when the printer starts doing the Z-tilt axis leveling, it shuts off the hotend, and then I have to wait for it to heat back up. The very first thing in the pre-print seems to be hotend and bed temp acquisition, so why let it cool down while doing Z-tilt? Seems like an unnecessary waste of time. Maybe its just more noticeable on my 500 because of the travel distance, but still annoying.

That sounds wrong, it doesn't do that on mine. Upload your printer.cfg
Certainly. Thanks for looking.
Now in regular flavor
Hmm.. looking at my graph, I think you are correct. For some reason the pre-heat is only 150 deg while the print temp is 250, so I am waiting on that.
I think I mistook the PWM line for the temp line 🤦♂️
That is normal. It pre-heats to 150 so filament is soft while probing
Ok, just me being dumb then.
per usual
