Probe build

Still a newbie to all this but I was proficient with our old 1808 without servos. I still use an old Bendix 1000 with ridged probes for reference (you all can chuckle now). Issue I'm having is that when I try to build a new probe, there's nothing in the drop down box. When I delete the probe file and try to type in a new probe, everything in the probe description becomes blank. I actually had to take a picture with my phone as it wouldn't let me take a screen shot. Below that, the options that are given are not what I need and I cannot override/enter what I want. Any help would be greatly appreciated

  • Good morning Hi-Tech Redneck. Here's the other two probes that I have.

  • Yea, I'm not familiar with that system or those components but looks like you got something going on, I just dunno what! Also, I've never seen an asterisk beside anything but the tip, indicating a lack of calibration results.

    Try this...navigate to the folder in windows explorer where your probe files are and make a copy of your 3x20 probe. Paste it and rename to 2x20. then in the probe dialog box in PCDMIS select the 2x20 probe and click the "Edit" button and change the diameter and see if that works...
