Good morning!
I'm using Prob in the Z axis and use the MDI as follows: G38.2 Z-3 F200
What I need is the following, create a button with name "Reset Z" button and this enable Prob,
and when playing the card literally ZERO the Z axis in the way that happens when we click the "PROBE".
I know how to create buttons and how to enable them to perform the MDI command, but I do not know how,
perhaps create a macro to perform this process, anyone have any examples of how I do it?

Good afternoon!
let me try to explain better ...
What I need is when I click the "probe" for the Z axis, which before referencing the cordenada against the workpiece, which
locate the probe.
Then work as follows in Click on "probe" for the Z axis, and the Z axis encntrar begins to descend to the probe, when receiving the reference tap cordenada over the workpiece G54.

You can also look here...
www.linuxcnc.org/index.php/english/compo...ew&catid=40&id=17821
Take a look at section for Z
In short...
probe for Z
After probe trips
You can use G10 or G92 to set the z axis to 0.

If I understand now your using a probe routine to locate the top of the material?
This is my probe routine for my plasma torch to find the material top.
This could be called from a button like the above example.
