Hi, no I'm not using G43.
This is what I do:
- power on the machine and homing the axis and zero G54 coordinate system
- jog the axis over the stock that I would to use
- Hit the "Probe Down" button
- Hit the insidde circle "Hole button" and zero XY in the hole of my probe that correspond to an angle of the stock
- now I could be in the position to start the job, but see how looks the coordinates in my preview screen:

Warning: Spoiler!


and I got the limits error of course

Here's how the coordinates look if I jog manually over the corner of the piece and I hit "Touch Off"
Warning: Spoiler!

now I can start the work but of course it's not too precise cause I didn't use the probe


Other INFO:
LinuxCNC 2.7.11


what am I doing wrong?

is this the first time you have tried to use your probe? do you have the probe tool offset set up? g43 loads your tool offset.. i cant say anything about your images as I only see half of them..

My first time using my probe in LinuxCNC. In the photo you can see that with the probe my workpiece zero is over the table in a position in which the machine can't work.

Hello, I recently installed this application, but when I push probe down button get error message
(Error: EOF in file:/usr/share/axis/images/axis.ngc seeking o-word: o<down> from line: 0).
Maybe somebody facing similar problem and could explain what could be wrong?
