im having play round with the webui probe tool
no file loaded just seeing how it works
put numbers in preference and saved
it Probes and stops when hits touch plate but dosent retract ?
i changed numbers in preference tab and saved before trying
Q
should it do retract
This was fixed fairly recently. You could replace the index.html.gz file with this one to resolve but I probably wouldn’t bother. For typical usage, you’re unlikely to use this probe panel. Instead, your CAM software will be configured to perform the probing. On the milling basics page, you’ll see starting and tool change gcode that includes probe gcode.
G38.2 Z-110 F200 P0.5 (probe down set thickness )
G1 Z10 F900
That first line does the probing. The second line is retracting. That’s all that panel is doing (or supposed to be doing) behind the scenes.

When you say replace that file, how does one actually go about that? And does that allow me to adjust the probe retract via the probe tab or does it just set it to retract 10mm? Having the same issue and I’m better with the hardware stuff than the software
You just upload the file here and it will overwrite the existing one.
It should allow you to set the retract distance on the probe tab.
If that still doesn’t work, I’d have to take a closer look.
Note: This is WebUI v2. Don’t change to WebUI v3 yet like discussed in another thread. That has it’s own probe tab that had to have a similar fix.
Much appreciated, I’ll give it shot
Yeah no worries, I’m not messing around with the WebUI v3 till I make my first cuts/drawings with WebUI v2. Dont want too many new variable at once
Thanks, it helps me for the same issue.
As you said, no a big issue but if we can solve it…
