Disable the probe changer?

seppley
Hey guys/gals!

I have a probe changer that works perfectly, but i have a part on the table that i am programing for that is so large that it intrudes into the probe changing area. This happens frequently enough that I need a way to disable the changer. What i have been doing is going into the probe changer setup box, and selecting "none" as my changer type. This works, but the downside is, when I want to reactivate the changer, i have to go back and do the alignment and such again.

Is there a toggle that I can't seem to find? Anyone else have a better solution?

Thanks,
Sam

  • If you don't move the changer, you just have to save toolc.dat as toolc.old, for example, and then rename it when you want to re activate.

    Depending what version you're running and what OS you have it could be in any one on three places.

    PC-Dmis install directory (Older versions)
    C:\ProgramData\WAI\PC-DMIS\2011 (eg) (Win 7 / Vista)
    C:\Documents and Setting\All Users\WAI\PC-DMIS etc (this one's from memory but I think it's right)
