'Simple Probe' question.
Posted: Sat Apr 30, 2022 11:35 am
I've been trying to set up a probing plate on my machine, at this point, just to set the Z axis to the work surface. I got the probe working, but it wasn't resetting the Z to zero at the work surface.
When I changed it from 'mobile probe' to 'touch probe', it started working properly.
But I notice that pressing 'Probe' on the main interface doesn't reset the Z axis. If I press 'Start Probing' in the 'PROBE' settings panel, the Z resets itself as expected.
Why is the button on the main interface not behaving itself?
*NOTE* The screenshot linked below is not from the actual UCCNC machine. That's over in my workshop. The screengrab is from my 'domestic' computer running in Demo mode. I made it look (from memory) as much as I could like the workshop computer.
