Probe panel for Axis GUI

Maybe another line ending story?

Did you copy it with a windows machine or something like that?

I would type the VEL_FAST... separately with the keyboard. Just in case...

I notice that there are inline-comments_

I know it has already been suggested to use '#' instead. IIRC there should not be any inline comments in the ini file.

So maybe try:

If that works for VEL_FAST then do the same with all the inline comments.

Ah. You are right..He did not mentioned that he deleted the "[...]".

I have tried using other commands, find center, find edge, etc... and I get the same error message: Named Parameter #<_ini[probe]vel_fast> not defined

Is there a difference with version 2.8.4 for declaring variables in the ini file versus newer 2.9 versions?

can you please post your current hal and ini files?

IT WORKS!

I deleted the offending lines of text (supposed to be comments but I forgot the # ) from the ini file and it worked. My mill is calibrating my probe as I type this.

Thank you for your assistance in getting this working. Really appreciate the help.

Square brackets are used to separate sections of the ini file so they can not be used as comments.
# <<< this should be OK, most probably

Easyprobe should work from 2.6 on (valutransformations in the messages) if I am right.

I wrote the most parts with 2.8.4 an finally with 2.9.2.

I tried using 2.7 and I kept getting dbounce error and LinuxCNC would not load. I upgraded to 2.8.4 and I did not get the dbounce error any longer.

Ok, two more questions:

First, what is the procedure for using this with a machine set to inches for the units?  I have converted the mm values to inches in the ini files but are there other values that need to be adjusted in other files?

Second, the calibration completes and enters the data into the tool table (I checked the file and there are now X, Y, I and J values added to Tool 99). When I try to do any other probing operatoin, i get the following error: No calibration data found in tool table. Please do a calibration. aborting
I re-ran calibration and now it is working. 

So, my first question still stands.
