Re: [Emc-users] Touch Probe
Busy 3D printing a small box to hold my interface board to the spindle and probe connector. Then I'll do some more testing. It appears to be fairly repeatable. I haven't figured out how to set the Z zero to the top of the material. I can click on the icon button and it goes down, finds it and then moves up. But it's at a random Z value. What I'd really like is that it detects the top, sets the Z axis to zero and then moves up the preprogrammed amount. In the same way the screen positions the probe above the 0 point for say X and Y but nothing else is changed. One still has to go to the main screen and zero both X and Y. Or else I'm using it wrong... Probably...

Re: [Emc-users] Touch Probe
Wires have been run. Been a bit difficult to get it working as my machine is still imperial and most of the Probe Screen is targeted to metric. Add that you need to type Enter to make a parameter change permanent and you have no idea which field is being changed the point above the work to put the probe for measuring is a bit obscure. Finally figured it out and made this short video. https://youtu.be/y1CBt3HYnvU John > -Original Message- > From: John Dammeyer [mailto:jo...@autoartisans.com] > Sent: November-10-21 12:50 PM > To: Enhanced Machine Controller (EMC) > Subject: [Emc-users] Touch Probe > > My PR series touch probe arrived from Belarus today (www.vers.by ).
