[Q] Level delta without computer

Hello, some time ago I built a kossel mini and i'm very happy with the repetier firmware. 
My way to level the bed follows these steps:

1. Calibrate endstops (just one time)
2. Use the repetier software to move the extruder to 3 points near the bed leveling screws and ajust them
3. repeat step 2 until the height is the same on the 3 points and the middle.

My question is if theres any way to go to these 3 leveling points without the need of a computer, maybe just using the lcd.


Thanks!

    You could have a sd card with the 3 go to point commands with your method. Also you can move xyz with lcd but that is slow.

    Can you give me some advice on how i can do that? For example if i make a gcode program that goes to The 3 points wouldnt The printer cicle them without stopping?

    Wouldn't be easier to add a menu entry that does this routine? Like Cartesian printers, it goes to the first point and when the encoder button is pressed it goes to the next point.

    I more meant 3 files - one for each point.

    Of course can you also modify the code to have it in firmware programmed.
