I would like to double check myself to make sure I have it correct regarding the "Master Probe".
A couple things first...
Our calibration sphere does get calibrated in the center of the granite so we do have to install and remove once finished calibrating probes.
We have a probe labeled "MASTER" and it only has A0B0 in the angles.
My question is...When calibrating probes that are used in the upcoming program first I calibrate the MASTER probe (A0B0) by selecting YES the calibration sphere has moved. Then, every probe after that has a "NO" selection when asked if the calibration sphere has moved.
I guess my main question is say I move that calibration sphere out of the way to run parts and I have to run another set of different part number parts. Of course when calibrating for probes used in this program I would select YES the cal sphere has moved when calibrating the MASTER and NO to the rest of the probes used in the program BUT when I ran that 2nd calibration and selected YES the sphere has moved does that wash away all other probes tied into the MASTER probe ran prior OR does it just build to the amount of probe angles that are all tied into the MASTER probe? I hope that makes sense.
What you describe, qualifying the "MASTER PROBE" on the sphere and saying yes, then qualify everything else saying no (until the sphere moves again or you restart the controller) is the safest way to deal with the issue.
Continue to do that, and it won't matter what controller or software you work on.
