Custom Probe Builder Utility

BCB12416
I have scoured every thread on the forum about custom probes and how to build/save them. I recently purchased 1MM and 1.5MM x 21MM probes. My drop down list has, for the most part, tips in increments of 10mm. It seems possible that I can calibrate to, say, a 1x25mm and everything would seemingly fall in line, but I'd really like to set this up more properly.

I had Hexagon build these probes after I gave it a shot, just to be sure I was doing it correctly. And I can pull up those files in the customer probe builder. After I see the IGES files for these probes, I don't really know how to go from there. Do I need to build everything from the "CAD Component" and "Component Builder" up? All I really want is the new tip itself to be in the drop down box, so I can add to the right connections?

Essentially - where do I go from the SS attached?

    Here are the two that Hexagon built for me under 1 .dat file. I think they were just misnamed by the technician.
