Setup results in error "Named parameter #<_ini[change_position]z>not defined"

Hallo Mark,

from the dokumentation of gmoccapy:

The Tool Sensor Section

The position of the tool sensor and the start position of the probing movement, all values are absolute coordinates, except MAXPROBE, what must be given in relative movement.

If you enter the top of the sensor as the start probing position, the error is OK.

Please set (first Test) TOOLSENSOR Z value to -200 (minus 200)
And MAXPROBE to 200 (positive 200)

And report back.

Norbert

Hello Norbert,

Thanks for you assistance.

[TOOLSENSOR]
Z = -200
MAXPROBE = 200

Didn't work. It rapided down to -200, and then started it's slow feedrate search for the probe by heading back up.

[TOOLSENSOR]
Z = -200
MAXPROBE = -200

Errored out as a commanded probing move outside the machines defined envelope.

[TOOLSENSOR]
Z = -200
MAXPROBE = -175

Works!!! Thanks very much. Now I need to change my workflow to actually use it.
Mrk

Sorry, my mistake. I missed the the search direction need to be negative.
Glad it does work now.

Norbert
