Z probing servo scripts work with Z probe but not with Z homing
Hi,
I have gotten the servo scripts to work while Z probing
I've even gotten the Z probe to work as Z homing switch if I have the servo neutral setting to move the switch down when the printer is turned on... but I can't seen to get the printer to start with the switch up when the printer is turned on and then have the switch moved down when I click Home Z.
If I can't make the script move the switch up after probing it would touch the plate during printing.
Please let me know what I need to do to make the same scripts that execute during Z probing also work during Z homing... I have already set the homing and probing pins to the same pin and everything works except the Z homing won't use the servo gcode scripts.

I have a Cartesian printer... I need the probe to be out of the way when the printer is turned on... then I need the probe to be lowered below the nozzle when I home Z... then when homing Z is done I need the probe to be moved out of the way again so the nozzle is the lowest part between the table.
If I manually set the probe to be always lower than the nozzle the Z homing works using the probe... but after Z homing is done the probe doesn't automatically move out of the way.
The probe moves up and down automatically when I use G30 but never when I use G28.
I am using version .92.8. I am only changing the configuration.h file manually... when you say use the DEV version... is the DEV version the version using the current configuration tool?
Do I need to use the configuration tool from scratch to get the Z homing scripts to work?
I tried uploading my current firmware and modifying it using the configuration tool... but when I upload it to the printer the printer freezes when I start it... I had to go back to the original firmware.
