Greetings! Please tell me. (The text is technically translated)  
How to change the nozzle temperature in the macro while performing z-offset calibration?

I’ve been reading this topic: [How to best set z offset for higher temps than the built in macros - Sovol SV08 - Sovol3d forum](https://forum.sovol3d.com/t/how-to-best-set-z-offset-for-higher-temps-than-the-built-in-macros/8747)

However, when the nozzle cleaning temperature changes, the calibration temperature does not change.  
For example: I change the nozzle cleaning temperature in the macro to 220 degrees. But the temperature during calibration remains 240 degrees.

I haven’t been able to find a solution to this problem; I really hope for your help.

I need to lower the temperature for my plastic during calibration — it’s higher than necessary.

On the Sovol Zero I have raised the nozzle cleaning temperature to as high as 260 C but the temperature for Z calibration remains at 130 C. I don’t want a long wait for the nozzle to cool down before calibration so I disabled nozzle cleaning as I mostly print high temperature filaments. I put Z offset adjustments in my slicer’s custom g code section of the filament profiles and zero the offset adjust in the START\_PRINT macro. I wish Sovol would embrace open source and release the full firmware code.
