Z probe behaviour
February 13, 2016 04:32AM
Can anyone help me with a question on z probing.
Have tried much googling but still don't know.
On my next printer design I want to have the probe pushed away from the microswitch when the bed touches, ie normally closed, open with bed touch.
Ok so far?
With my probe retract idea the switch will open again and may report bed touch.
Will this be ignored if the probing routine is complete?
I'm using the Ramps 1.4 and Repetier firmware.
Thanks.

Not really sure where I should have put this question
