      Came across an interesting capability of the BLTouch that would speed up probing and reduce wear when browsing the BLV mgn FaceBook group. This uses the Alarm Release & Touch SW Mode (M280 Px S60) and keeps the pin extended on detection. Not only is it considerably faster but it also reduces wear since the pin does not need to be extended and retracted at each probe point. This feature is already available in Marlin (BLTOUCH_HS_MODE) and Klipper.

      Below is a video of this mode in use on a printer running Klipper.

        There was actually a tutorial posted here a little while ago that showed how to accomplish exactly this. I wish I had book marked it at the time.
