I don't want to make any changes to the basic config that refers to anything from ProbeBasic. A big value of the simplicity of the current version is that it works regardless of the LinuxCNC GUI and doesn't require anything other than access to the subroutines.
What we're heading towards, though, is a version that is tailored to work better with ProbeBasic. And which ideally uses the same subroutines to avoid duplication and reduce troubleshooting and failure modes.
That is an easy change, though, to have ProbeBasic spit out the probe calibration value as a numbered (and persistent, through linuxcnc.var) variable. Currently it passes that variable as an argument to the subroutines and it's ingested as below by the subroutine:
#<calibration_offset> = #10 (=0.0000)
(Probe Diameter)
#<probe_diameter> = #5410
(Probe Radius)
#<probe_radius> = [#<probe_diameter> / 2]
(Probe Centerline Offset)
#<probe_center_offset> = [#<probe_radius> - #<calibration_offset>]
(remove probe tip diam and cal offset from probed width calculations)
#<probe_diameter_offset> = [#<probe_diameter> - [#<calibration_offset> * 2]]
If you want to submit it as an official part of probebasic, here's the repo: https://github.com/kcjengr/probe_basic
Alternatively, you could go in and modify the f360_tip_radius subroutine to refer back to the probebasic calibration.
