Hi all,

I changed a bit my workflow due to the usage of a new GUI (Basic Probe), my new workflow require my machine to have a precise and consistent Z axis zero point.

ATM, I only have a small Omron tactile switch has it was just used as approx. boundaries.

What could I use to achieve a better axis homing ? IR Sensor ? Special tactile switch ? 

Any recommandation that doesn't cost an arm and is easy to setup is welcome

Thank you.

Is there a pin to link an external button to reload the gcode that is already loaded? I did a probe but whenever I do the probe I have to reload the gcode for the viewer to go to the right coordinate, I looked for a pin to link an external button but I couldn't find it, does anyone know if it exists?

I should have specified that I am using Basic Probe UI, look like the link you provided me only support Axis ?

EDIT I just tried and it seem to work fine with Basic Probe UI, look like it's working fine. Any warning ? I should be concerned by something ?

Thank you.

Hello all,

By the past I have used millkins to compensate 0.001mm / mm of XY squareness.

Now that I have done a fresh LinuxCNC install, I can't seem to find millkins again, probably way out dated ?

What's the actual way of adding a small skew correction to my axis ?

Is Matrixkins an up-to-date component with LinuxCNC 2.9.3 ? Is it directly embedded in the default installation ?

Thank for your help.

Thank you very much ! Your work are awesome.
