Thread: UCCNC Probing

I've recently downgraded my old HP laptop back to Windows 7 and installed a shiny new version of UCCNC. I've gone for the now standard new screenset as it is designed for a 1920x1080 display. Previously I have used A-Camera's excellent probing plugin but I believe this is not set up to work on the new screenset. So I've tried to make sense of the built-in probing.
Am I the only person who cannot make head nor tail of how to make it work, even after reading the instructions? I managed to get it to tell me it was actually probing, and it said it had completed probing when I touched the tool with the probe plate, but nothing ever actually moved and the Z axis DRO didn't change.
All I want is the most basic function - move down till you hit the plate, stop, reset Z axis DRO to 3.0mm.
Any help would be gratefully received, otherwise I'm going back to the old screenset and A-Camera's plug-in.
