I saw a second mention of this classic E-raise/lower lick recently in a thread about whether they should be on different knees or the same. I'm not sure I fully understand what the lick is.
Does getting the inversion in "E", as described above, involve moving the bar to the 5th fret ?

John, there really is no lick in the TAB you've posted. The notes played on strings 4, 5 and 8 are identical. They're G#, E and G# (one octave lower). These are the 1st and 3rd intervals of an E major chord.
However, you can play a triad scale progression using just the Eb and F knee levers. The Eb knee lever would give you the 1, 2m, 3m 4, 5 and 6m scale progression. For the 7dim you would use the F knee lever. For example: B major scale, starting at the open fret, using the Eb knee lever, strings 5, 7 and 8 are the 1st, 5th and 3rd intervals of a B major chord; At the 5th fret, strings 6, 8 and 10 are the 1st, 5th and minor 3rd intervals of a C#m chord; Slide up two frets for the D#m chord; Slide back to the 5th fret and strings 5, 7 and 8 are the 1st, 5th and 3rd intervals of a E major chord; Slide up two frets for the F# major chord; 12th fret, strings 6, 8 and 10 are the 1st, 5th and minor 3rd of a G#m chord; Slide back to the 11th fret, using the F knee lever, strings 5, 8 and 9 are the 1st, diminished 5th and minor 3rd intervals of the A#dim chord (if you add string 6 you'll have the a full A#dim7 chord).
Note: This scale can be played a little differently but I am showing the scale progression with consecutives (in other words, with the chord intervals stacked the same throughout the progession). I'm not any good at writing TAB on the forum, otherwise I would have TAB'ed it out.
Hope this will start you off on building licks with the Eb and F knee levers. 
I keep editing because I keep seeing errors in my posting.
Keep on pickin'!
