I've recently installed the HR-MP 6 port probe changer on one of our CMMs. It was calibrated and successfully changed probes without issue. However, when I close the lids, instead of pushing the covers over when picking up a probe, it moves over slightly above the lid then crashes on top. I've tried playing with the (before and after pick-up distances) and (edit the probe data) to try and "force" the CMM to slide the lids over before picking up a probe. I would assume the probe changer should operate with the lids closed but for now I'm leaving them open. Is there anything I need to change to make this work with the lids closed?
Redo the rack calibration and pay close attention to the Z axis locator. Does it have you touch off the top of the white dividers or on the step the doors sit on? It looks like it's just the z axis location is too high.

I was going to suggest adjusting the Z values but, from the way the picture looks, I think it is just locating the z off the wrong spot. Plus I didn't want to suggest manually editing the bay locations right away.
