I sympathize with you being frustrated with this, but the reason for a
probe RISING edge during a machine rapid causing the machine to stop
is very clear - if you don't mean to be probing, and you're rapiding,
and something hits the probe, the next half-second or so may cause the
shedding of many tears and dollars if the machine doesn't stop. Those
things are shockingly expensive.
Problems with bounce are a pain though, and not just for linuxcnc
users I bet, because my Renishaw has a debounce time constant, in the
hardware, of several ms. I do final probe moves (length of only about
.002) at F0.1!

Ok you're saying probe BREAK error again here, and I wonder if that's
really the error you're getting. Can you say what the exact error
message is please?
I think it must be one of these?
reportError(_("Probe tripped during non-probe MDI command."));
reportError(_("Probe tripped during homing motion."));
reportError(_("Probe tripped during a jog."));
There are also
reportError(_("G38.4 move finished without breaking contact."));
reportError(_("G38.2 move finished without making contact."));
which is the only place I can find "break" in an error message, but if
you're not in a probing move when it happens, it won't be these.
Also are you running in auto mode, or are you using MDI to do this? I
think it's more forgiving in auto mode but I'd have to study/remember
harder to be sure.
