Work with probe

Hello all.

The actual fork for probe screen next gen seem to be dead (i haven't the admin stuff...).

So i have actually created a new project on github, your welcome for test comment and propose change if you like it.

Some little change done to GUI, but stuff completly revised :

-Possibility to swap from 3D touch probe to Touchplate with a simple tickbox.
-Manual tool change with auto length use now built in python stglue remap. (i think about going back to a ngc version)
-You can bypass the auto length stuff with a simple tickbox.
-Config is done for use separate input for Touch Probe (or Touchplate) and Tool setter and the status is checked before each move.

Of course status is something like beta, use with precaution.

Interesting post

Hi!

I have a probe attached to a slide that drops it if needed.
Therefore it is offset in x, y and z.
The probe comes down beneath the spindle.
How do I configure this?

Best regards
Julian

Work offsets will be your friend. G54 et al. You might also be able to define those offsets in your tool table.

After a few days of stumbling around with probe screen NG I am at a loss. Z probing works fine, but XY seems to be reversed.
The machine jogs correctly in all axis from the PSNG screen.
When I want to find a X+ edge it starts probing in the X- direction??

Any pointers would be appreciated.

Are you 100% sure that your machine is set up right? It is not uncommon to configure an axis to move in the wrong direction.

X+ should move the tool right or the table left if Y+ moves the tool away from you are the table towards you.
