multiple Z-Probe trigger heights in config-override.g

benecito

I have 2 Z-Probes configured in RRF3.3 where the first (K0) is an IR-probe, and the second (K1) is a switch (type 8).
If I save my trigger height using M500 P31 I only have values for the first one. Is there a way to store both? As a matter of fact the second one would be enough but if I switch K0 and K1 the IR probe does not work anymore (which I believe was one of the limitations)

In theory the trigger height settings for each probe is a constant that once determined does not change.

Just enter the values into the config.g and forego the use of config-override.g

@fcwilt In theory you are right
But there are occasions where you might want to (or need to) change them. And I don't want my customers to go into config or alike but only use G-Code commends. And they will most likely need to change them at some point.

So you think that limiting customers to executing G-code commands will prevent them from messing things up?

Never underestimate the power of a customer to mess things up. Some of them seem to view it as a challenge

Well, the beautiful thing about my setup is, they need a password for it. But I'm sure someone will try hard enough to manage to mess something up
Still I don't want to make it too easy

So there is no way to do this? I mean you can set it in config-override for one probe and you can create multiple probes. Would it not make sense to store the values for all the probes in config-override?
Not jet implemented, not planned or did I do something wrong?

I'm not sure if the mechanism for M500 P31 to save multiple probes is implemented yet. The multiprobe feature is still quite new. I'll see where it's at.

Yes the code is written to save the trigger heights of multiple Z probes.

... and it is working for me:

Is it working in the 3.4 beta or in 3.3 as well? I tried on 3.3 the day I posted it, but it didn‘t work for me - if I had two probes it only saved one on them.
But if it should work on 3.3 I‘ll try again!

@benecito I tested in 3.4beta, however I don't recall changing that area of code between 3.3 and 3.4beta.

@dc42
Thanks I‘ll try as soon as I find time and get back to you if needed.
