    seems to me G92 z(plate thickness) would set the z cord. to zero for the bottom of the plate that the probe was stopped at. You would have to move the probe very slowly so it does not move much after triggering. If you use cutter compensation you could change the tool offset similarity. There is a sample for probing tool offsets under nc_file .
    Again food for thought I have not tried this...

    Yes my probe is part of the tool. I am using G54. I'll give G92 a go let you know in a few if that's right. Here's a picture of my probe setup for clairification:

    Yep, The G92 command does the trick. Now I just need a way of issuing both lines of code using my z touch off button.
