Work with probe

Problem from your error log.
I would open the hal file mentioned and comment out the relevant line.
That should allow linuxcnc to run (unless other erorrs)
I would then open halshow and review the pin names. Work out what the correct pin name is, then go back and edit your hal file again to use a valid pin name...

Thank you rodw, I will try that this evening.

Yes if I comment those lines out in probe_screen.hal it starts.
the pins and pin names look fine in hal show.

I can't help you as I don't use this but maybe post a screen dump of halshow showing the pin names

Thanks, I will post that in the morning.

[strike]Is Probe screen able to do Z Touch off on manual tool change? I have looked through the thread and and buttons screen and cannot work out if this is a capability. I currently have Z touch off working based on this implementation 7xcnc.com/software/probing/z-touch-plate/ , however it does not appear to be compatable with Probe Screen, as after follwing the Probe screen installation instructions I get an error due to the removal of the Manual Tool change entries in .Hal[/strike]

Ok, I think I worked that one out, the process involves the "Toolsetter", so does the toolsetter hook up to the same pins as the probe?

It would be so much easier if I could search within a thread.
