klicky probe drawings reversed??

was about to setup a klicky probe.... if the dock is mounted above the left front Z screw (most available printable docks avail for the V-Core-3?) aren't the drawings for the motion sequences reversed on the page at https://os.ratrig.com/docs/guides/stowable-probes ??? Wouldn't STOWING the probe (move 2 - > 3) be a X+ to X- motion, then a Y- to Y+ (3 -> 4) motion to remove the probe from the carriage arm (leaving the probe docked)? But THAT sequence is documented as DEPLOYMENT, not stowing.
-OR- shouldn't there be some annotation on the page if the 'as pictured' sequences are for a probe dock mounted on the rear (near elec panel) with a probe under the air horns.... and NOT for a front left mounted probe doc.? So I'm a bit confused, which I should configure for a front mounted, left side deploying/stowing routine. ...or as usual have I missed something here?
Stowable Probes | RatOS
RatOS 2.0 and higher has support for Stowable Probes. Preset includes exists for euclid, klicky and unclicky at the time of writing. To use one of the presets, you need to uncomment it in your printer.cfg. If you use a stowable probe that doesn't have a preset, you can use any one of the presets as a template, just copy the contents into the USE...

Depends on the mount and probe you use, if you need 2 -> 3 just swap the 2 and 3 coordinates (dock side and probe exit). For euclid the diagram is correct. This is just to tell you in which order the coordinates are traveled to so you can change as necessary. also the klicky include should already take care of this

thanks for the clarification. Ok,.. .yep, makes sense for a euclid, but it didn't mention the targeted probe type, so was confusing approaching it from a klicky standpoint.

Yeah i should probably clarify that in the docs 😅

cool. simple edit.... just add the probe names right beside where you state stow and deploy Deploy for: xx stow for: xx reverse for xxxx should be enough for even idiots like me! 🙂
