How to access MK4 probing data for physical bed leveling mod
I've been chasing my tail trying to hit a critical z dimension on a functional part that I know is within the accuracy of my MK4. I have no trouble hitting it on smaller test prints. It took me too long to figure out what I was up against was the uneven surface of the build plate itself.
I'm looking into doing something like this https://www.schweinert.com/silicone-bed-level-mod-prusa-mk3/ . I'll need access to the results of the mesh probing to dial in the results. I found a post and screenshot where someone with an MK3s on prusaconnect was able to get a graph of that information during a print.
I got prusaconnect all hooked up and I can't find anything similar to what they posted.
Is there any way to get access to this data on the MK4?
Thanks.

Prusaconnect doesn't support a bed mesh visualizer because Prusa is slow like their printers and refuse to support basic features. I suspect it's because they want to hide the fact that a lot of their beds are tilted or cratered in the middle, and are relying on the mk4's touch leveling to compensate so the user doesn't notice.

I prefer to get the heights as a table of numbers. I did that 2 days ago on one of our MK3S+ which we have equipped with the spring mod. Whether it is still the same way on an MK4 I do not know.
If so, please connect a laptop via USB with the Prusa, start an old fashioned terminalprogram (e.g. pronterface, on Linux I also use moserial) and within the programm, choose the serial (com on windows) port and connect to the Prusa . Then you can see the logging the Prusa writes. Punching in G80 starts the meshbed-levelling and when it is finished, G81 outputs the table with the data. Voila.

Is there no easy way to add this to Prusaconnect
