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?
Double check probe build? Could there be an extra piece that's in your probe build that's not physically there that is telling the machine to dock higher?
