Tip Calibration Process

Smasherofprobes
Hello all, could you please verify that I am calibrating my tips properly! I recently calibrated my machine and my results seem offset in one axis. (Calibration sphere comes off the table after every calibration)

I start by selecting A0B0 only ( Say Yes, Sphere has moved) Calibrate it by itself

Then I Select all tips (Including A0B0) and say No, Sphere has not moved)

The second time I calibrate my tip set should I be including A0B0? Also, Do you guys have a separate probe file called something like "Master probe" with just A0B0? or do you calibrate it within the tip set.

I haven't been on a machine in many years and I'm trying to remember the correct way to do this.

Thanks and my apologies if this is a re-post.

  • After saying YES with the A0B0, I don't think you want to calibrate the A0B0 in your remainder of probes with the 'NO'.
    If you ever feel you need to recalibrate the A0B0 because there is some strange issue, I think it would be an isolated calibration for that tip then 'NO' on any following tips to ensure correct mapping.
    And when referring to A0B0, it should be A0B0 of the same probefile every time. Not just any A0B0 from any probe build you have.
