Setting up a conductive pad to help define probe offsets

MatterControl can us a conductive pad to automatically calculate the distance between the nozzle and a probe.

What you need to enable:

• Hardware
  • Has Conductive Nozzle
• Probe
  • Measure Probe Offset Conductively
  • Conductive Pad Center
    • the x y position of the pad on the bed
  • Conductive Probe Min Z

Using a limit switch as the conductive sensor (x_min shown)

• read filter = "x_max: open","conductive: open"
• additional = "x_max: TRIGGERED","conductive: TRIGGERED"

Required features of the firmware:

• You must have a probe enabled (Setting up a BLTouch probe)
• G30 must functions correctly on the printer, this is how we collect the level information from the probe
