Reduce bed temperature after 1st layer

Hi,

I use Printbrite as a print surface to print ABS. Adherence is great and I don't experience any warping but it does require a hotter bed temperature for the first layer.

Is there a way to set a different bed temperature from the 2nd layer up?

Apologies if I missed something obvious.

Regards

Paul

If you aren't already using the "N [*] Layers" G-code, you could set the temp there (and set "N" to 1). It would get set every layer, but that hardly wastes much space. (You could use the <BED> token with subtraction, something like <BED-50>)
