z probe install oncarve king

[tig58]

Hi, I'm and absolute beginner at CNC and have just bought a Carve King.  Can anyone tell me in simple language if it is possible to connect a z probe gauge that can be identified using Easel?

Thanks Tig

Yes, connect to the SEL and GND. All programs that are compatible with GRBL g-code based system should recognise the probe signal.  Typically used with alligator clips, one connected to a metal "Probe" base and the other to the endmill.
