Getting a Star probe square to your machine

First, you need to have your star square to the machine.
What I do is place a 123 block on my plate.
I have a Rayco plate so it is easy to get that square.
When I put the star in I eyeball it square to the block.
Your dual calsphere needs to be pretty square to the machine also.
Next, I calibrate each tip individually, starting with #1.
It might take a few tries, but it'll work.
Here are a couple of pics of how I do it.

  • I tried to post that one too, but this board won't let you attach an rtf or txt file. *&%$#&*@&*!!!!!!!!!!! I guess I should have been resourceful enough to find a workaround like you. I should be used to having to do that with all things Hexagon.


    FYI...
    I did add stuff to the one with the link posted today.
