Has anyone made a script to list all used probes (tips) in all programs?

Has anyone made a script to list all used probes (tips) in all programs (in a certain folder)? Technically it should be possible - get a list of all programs, open them one after another, scan for LOADPROBE and TIP commands, collect data.

But has anyone already done it? And is able to share?

  • I agree. I will clean them up but the purpose for us is when I finish compiling a list of unique part numbers I'm going to forward that to planning and find out what jobs are obsolete or run less than once every 5 years.

    I want to eliminate those tips from our normal calibration program.

    We always have the majority of a weekend to run a full calibration and because of that the previous programmers just kept adding tips to our calibration until it's now 24 hours long. The less time that program takes the more flexible we can be when something unexpected happens. This will be extremely helpful in knowing what tips I can and can't eliminate once I have that information from planning.
