maxed out at -2.00 Z axis offset, first layer calibration

Installed the super pinda in my Mini. doing the first layer calibrations. I'm down to a -2.00 Z offset and think I could go further.

 

I've hit the limit of adjustment. This leads me to believe my Pinda is not at the right height. perhaps I need to adjust it - I used the credit card method, maybe the card was too thick or too thin?  do I need to lower the Pinda - use a thinner card, or do I need to raise the Pinda - use a thicker card to get the additional negative (-Z) offset I need?

 

Thanks!

If you want to go lower, you need to raise the PINDA.

@baklin

Thank you!  That's what I thought, but wanted to do a sanity check!

thanks for the reply, I will try raising the Pinda slightly.
