Yes as mentioned - update works with card in slot.

Also note the comment on the S and M files, toolkit reads M as for the screen and S as for mainboard.
And level settings are not being saved (FW 1.32.41)

I have a similar issue with the new Firmware 1.32.41. After leveling the firmware stores all 5 leveling points (1-5) with the same value (f.e. Z: 132.90), the value which I got at the last point. So it is nearly impossible to get the leveling finished.

So what is the solution here Geeetech? 7 days and no support?

What versions of the firmware do actually save the leveling information?

The E180 only has 1 level setting which is for the center of the build plate. The outside zones you need to adjust manually via screws to suit the middle zone.
The different firmware I have tried actually have different default levels! 1.26.36 was 132.00 and 1.32.41 is 129.00 (or vice versa). As your center level adjustments are not saved, the easiest approach for me was to relevel the entire build plate to match the default middle zone level. Pretty annoying and makes the leveling redundant but works until they release firmware to resolve.

Haven't seen this problem before, I try with version 1.29.36.
Change the Z value in leveling, connect to Easyprint, check the value after rebooting, disconnect and try change Z value again.

The value can be saved every time, the same as it was set.

Easyprint3D version: 1.2.6, did you work with this version?

And does leveling save for you in the latest firmware version 1.32.41 ?

Upgraded to V1.32.41, also upgraded the UI file, try again, also can save the leveling value.

What is the version of Easyprint that you're using?
Is there the same problem when using other slicer software?

EasyPrint is 1.2.3 -- 1.2.6 is in beta.
Regardless, the leveling is a function of the printer itself, nothing to do with easyprint.

Downgraded to v1.29.36 level changes not saved
Upgraded to v1.32.41 (twice) changes will now save...
