    I'm getting my Z dialed in and I've got the steps spot on. I'm finding the probe plate measures at 9.08mm and I'm getting a repeated variation of .08 when manually zeroing Z. Is there somewhere I can calibrate this? I'm assuming it's supposed to be 9mm. Thank you

    You can change to a "custom probe" in the lower left hand corner of the probe screen. After that, change the plate thickness by clicking on the gear icon.

    Thanks Shawn, this is exactly what I was looking for. Do you happen to know the default measurements for this probe? I'm curious if there was a discrepancy. I've been chasing my tail trying to get my machine calibrated as best as possible.

    9mm. I have mine set to custom as well. Mine is slightly undersized.
