I have been reading many posts on bed and probe settings. What is never clear is where I am measuring FROM. Example:
#define LEFT_PROBE_BED_POSITION 15
#define RIGHT_PROBE_BED_POSITION 145
#define FRONT_PROBE_BED_POSITION 20
#define BACK_PROBE_BED_POSITION 150
The above Positions are to be measured from where? And should the bed/nozzle be at a certain location prior to taking the measurements?
Thanks for any clarification.

To stay withing the bed boundaries I choose too use a 20mm side boundary and a 25mm front to back boundary from bed edge
As my proximity sensor is exactly 25mm directly behind the nozzle the following chart is used for a 220mm X 270 Bed.
Location 0,0,0 the nozzle is touching the front left corner of the bed.

Cartesian printers it is common to define X=0 Y=0 as the front left corner of the bed when looking in the +Y direction; but it's more logical to define X=0 Y=0 as bed center.
