According to the Marlin docs the G30 command's description is "Do a single Z probe at a specified position. By default probe in the current position."
Is G30 the alternative to G29 (auto bed levelling).
I want to convert my Prusa clone to a light CNC machine and am thinking of probing for the thickness of the material at the start of the job to have a repeatable 0 (zero ) start.
This does however mean that I will need to make the probe a stow-away probe on a servo but I am good with that.
Does G30 perhaps reset Z to a new zero height when done after the homing was done? I could then, in my gcode, home first as usual, then go and pause at some high-ish Z height while I fasten my material to the bed. Then I can do a Z-probe on the material for thickness when I click continue.
