Work with probe

Still no luck. I cleaned it up and reinstalled Probe Screen again. Have I missed something?
Now I get an error on startup. I have attached the debug file.

Your attached error file can not be read, it is an openoffice document.
Can you attach the txt file?

Sorry, here is the .txt file

Hi there, I really have hit a wall here. Can anyone help?

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.
