inconsistant operation

I'll take a closer look in the morning but there are a few things I might suggest cleaning up.

probe didn't fully retract. the forth time it finished and created map. This was after down graded DWC to 1.21.1I get java error about gcode every single command with both 1.21.2 and 1.22 adds low vin warning when I'm 24.7 vdc on my meter mounted next to psu.
If you tell me exactly what javascript error message you get with 1.22 then I'll ask chrishamm to look into it.

@Sir printsalot: Do an "Apply Settings" on the same device where you get the error.

java script error remember gcode is not a function error {} 1153
applies settings button does nothing launches this error.
restore factory setting launches this error.
every button and and text field launches this error. -
I've asked Christian to take a look. Some other users have reported the same error message, but AFAIK they have all got past it.

Well I not smart enough to get past it. So with that shelved wait for Chrishamm I want to focus on 1 item at a time. I'm working with homez.g by itself. after x and y are homed I have machine physically placed with nozzle 5mm off bed which is 5.96 mm probe triggering height. My z coordinate reading is 0 for some reason. I run homez.g and m401 and g30 than m402 run. I have now raise z after in the macro. z raises back to starting position and display reads z0. z is actually back at 5 nozzle 5.96 triggering. where is the 5mm move up coming from and why does the g92 z0 get issued without an offset that includes this un written move. I'm learning more by separating macro and running them separately.

sorry to keep adding but I wanted it documented. Ok so I left the machine at it's 5.96 height after homeall.g where display show 5.96 height. I than type in gcode field M401 and than G1 Z0 F2000 S1 and the results are.
M401 command probe deployed. G1 Z0 F2000 S1 displayed changed to Z0 no machine move physically happened. Same as sending a G92 Z0 command would. Some thing is definitely going on.I'm not using printer anymore until someone has time to help. I already has bent parts. I will patiently wait for someone willing to help, I'm just lost. Thank you

Some thing is definitely going on.That is exactly what I would expect to happen. To home using a Z probe you use G30, not G1 S1 Zxxx. The G30 command will stop when the height of the nozzle above the bed is at the trigger height of the Z probe, which you have said is 5.96mm.
Homing an axis means establishing a known position for that axis. That position does not have to be zero. But if it makes you feel better, then after the G30 command followed by M402 to retract the probe, you can send G1 Z0 if you wish (note: no S1) to lower the nozzle to touch the bed.

every button and and text field launches this error.From my experience pressing "Apply Settings" will always restore the proper data type for the affected variable so I am surprised it is not working for you. Can you please try to clear the browser cache including cookies/storage for the printer and see if that fixes it (provided you are using DWC 1.22.1 of course).

that buttom is optioned out. When I hover mouse over it it show cycle with line through unable to toggle button icon. Non of any of the fixes are either working or available on my installation. I am experiencing behavior other aren't, or the same without the option to correct. I'm not sure if it's a windows thing.
As far as the triggered height from bed during probing, it's .96 mm. nozzle is offset higher .96mm I don't know where the additional 5mm is coming from. I have never written a lift of 5mm. after g30. The 5mm lift starting is avoidance of bed edge, because x moves 20 mm wider than bed on neg side. if nozzle was lower than bed nozzle will hit bed edge. But after nozzle is centered where it homes z z0 is .96mm above and my safe z travel height. I have never written to raise a second time. It does anyway. Look at my homez and my homeall. Homeall z is the same as homez a far as z homing goes. But homez raises the extra 5mm zeroing z there and homeall leaves z at .96 and writes the correct height. My question is why are the treated differently if the z portions are the same. My thing is after a homing run regardless of where machine goes, the readout needs to be the correct measured value from bed and it is 5mm higher than it actually is. Printing 5mm of air. I have to lower and g92 to correct it is using my Homez.g but not for my homeall.g and they are the same routine. makes no sense and is inconsistent comparatively.

What probe type are you actually using right now? P5, P7, P9? Perhaps it's returning to the dive height after a probe.

Can you try this?
Go to settings, List items, and delete all the entries in Default Gcodes, and hit apply.

probe is bl touch smart brand named probe pin. dive hieght is current position z neg 299 mm relative. so no static value to return to. Im away til sat vacation atm. get back to u soon. thank you for all your help. there is a solution.
