Howdy!!
From the picture and instructions, where would you probe your one hit? What does "behind" mean to you? You going to probe the yellow or red circle??
simply put, no other instructions, Yellow, proceed with caution, Red means stop, but to protect yourself, take a hit from each one and report and treat them separate. but behind? could be the other side. good luck
Forget the color, it should have no influence. They are only different colors so one could easily just say yellow..... or red.....
To me, see how the trihedron sits showing the axis'? And would also indicate where the operator might be sitting in relation to the part? Where is "behind", yellow or red?
in general y+ is toward the back of the machine so i assume behind the hole would be the yellow marker. but key word "assume". that being said if i was writing up work instructions i would include the picture but only with the yellow dot and change the wording to include a reference to the yellow dot.
I'd just have you position the probe in the hole and do a read point, but behind, in general, is relative to the front of the machine, so it would be the yellow.

Depends who's asking. If operator comments then I would probe +Y or yellow. If a costumer instructed to do so then I would do them all that were mentioned already Red, Yellow, Opposite face and like
KIRBSTER269 mentioned treat them as separate entities.
leaving something to interpretation is bad practice to begin with. Even if you believe there should be no interpretation necessary. If someone else thinks something different than what you intended, it should be re-worded or further improved.
If the part is sitting on the machine, 'behind' is towards the back of the machine, away from the computer, away from where you stand with the jogbox. Machines DO have a 'front & back' to them. Of course, if they put the part up there wrong, it's all gonna blow up in your face and it will be "your fault" no matter who is to blame.

While I have always viewed it that way, I know some operators who view the CMM like a car. When you sit at the CMM the front of the CMM is in the same direction as your front meaning the further away a part is the closer to the front it is. Because of this I started to define things by saying closest to the operator or furthest away from operator instead of front and back.
