Nozzle Center Worksheet File-> Make a copy

Direction of movement: X, Y, or Z Movement Distance (Fx)

Resolution of a single step: M - (default is step_distance for the first stepper on that axis)

Examples:

G38.2 X10 M1

G38.2 How to use: Click on the dropdown for the macro Under the axis you want to probe, enter the movement distance (10 is a safe place to start) Enter a positive value to probe towards the axis maximum and a negative value to probe towards the axis minimum. Under M, enter the resolution to probe at. Start with .1, then use .001.

For example, if we enter an X value of 5 and an M value of 0.0001, assuming the tip touches the probe, the console output should look something like this: Probe hit something while moving Probing finished with result 1 (1=contact, 0=no contact) Probing G38.2 finished with result 1 at (109.425,341.0,4.0)

Enter the resolution of a single step into the box labeled "M" (1 is a safe place to start)
