Operate

  1. Scan the surface using Gcode like this:
M64 P0  (turn off compensation)
T1 M6 (Install probe)
#<h> = 90 
#<w> = 90 
#<x0> = 110
#<y0> = 90
#<step> = 20
#<search_feed> = 100
#<latch_feed> = 1
#<safe_z> = 3
#<search_z> = -3
(PROBEOPEN filename.txt)
G0 #<safe_z>
#<y> = #<y0>
o101 while [#<y> LT #<h>+#<y0>]
  #<x> = #<x0>
  o102 while [#<x> LT #<w>+#<x0>]
    G0 X#<x> Y#<y> 
    F[#<search_feed>]
    G38.3 [Z#<search_z>]
    F[#<latch_feed>]
    G38.5 [Z#<safe_z>]
   G0 #<safe_z> 
    #<x> = [#<x>+#<step>]
  o102 endwhile
  #<y> = [#<y>+#<step>]
o101 endwhile
(PROBECLOSE)
  1. Reset component's height map by pressing Reset button at pyvcp panel or throught Gcode M65 P1 (Reset compenstation) G4 P1 M64 P1 (Reset compenstation) G4 P4 (Wait for 4 seconds, just in case)

  2. Turn on the compensation by checking Enable check box and prepare to see the magick :)! Or: M64 P0 (Turn on the compensation)
