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

  • what if you make a plate that has countersunk holes. Mount your tool changer to the plate then when you have to remove the changer just remove the whole plate (tool changer attached).
    this will eliminate you having to calibrate your tool changer everytime.
    Renaming the toolc.dat file is the easiest way to disable the toolchanger.
