Method Detail

zProbe

public static Location zProbe(Location l)
                       throws java.lang.Exception

Performs a Z Probe canned cycle if a Z Probe actuator name is defined on the default head. If none is defined, null is returned. The cycle is as follows: 1. Move the Z Probe actuator to the specified location, respecting head offsets. 2. Perform an Actuator.read() and parse the result as a Double in Millimeters. 3. Move back to the location the zProbe was at before the call. 4. Return a Location that matches the passed in location in X, Y, and Rotation with the Z value set to that of the probe. Note that currently the Z Probe is expected to return millimeters. This can be made configurable in the future.
