Just started yesterday. When I try to calibrate my disc (A-5000-7310) the machine will take a hit on the bottom of the disc then it will take 3 more hits on the bottom of the disc towards the edge of the disc, then it measures the outside of the disc.
Ive seen this solution posted from someone in the forum before. I dont recall the thread but here is the example they gave and it has helped me with calibrating disc probes
" How to find start / End Angle on Disc Probe Calibration
you can use this calculation to figure out your start-end angle.
example:
18mm disc dia x 2mm thick Calibrate using only 70% of the disk thickness (out of square comp.)
2mm x .70 = 1.4mm
half of 70% thickness 1.4mm / 2 = .7mm Half probe dia. 18mm/2=9mm Calculate the angle from horizontal center line to half disk thickness
