    Is it possible to create a tool in laser mode?
    I want to use a endstop at the high end and the z probe at the low end.
    Therefore I want to use G30 S-2 to offset the laser nozzle. But then I need a tool to run the gcode.
    The M563 Gcode to define a tool seems not to work.
    Or is there a better solution to use the z probe and the endstop?

      @rabbit currently the laser configuration in RRF is not part of the tool definition. We intend to change this in a future version of RRF; but for now you need to use the M452 command (https://docs.duet3d.com/en/User_manual/Reference/Gcodes#m452-select-laser-device-mode) to switch the machine into laser mode.

      You can still use M563 to define tools, but the laser function will work even when you don't have a tool selected.
