Need to change probe tip on probe body?

New to Pc-Dmis, CMM and of course the Romer. The current probe body (5024SC-0237) and tip (6mm) was changed to a (3mm) tip using the same body. This ruby ball has broken (they don't bounce very well) and I want to put the (6mm) tip back onto the probe body. The problem is, I don't know what file to go back into and what needs to be changed. We had an engineer that set up the tip and he has left the company. This Romer has been a nightmare, my company decided to purchase this setup and not spring for any training (unless you count 3 days with a salesman). I am stuck with a instrument I know little about and being new to inspection (less than 2 years) has me at a loss. I appreciate anyone’s help and time.

Thanks,
Mike

    I re-calibrated the ball using a sphere that is on our Cordax. The sphere is a (.75005") 19.05127mm.
    With the 15mm tip, Standard Deviation is (.004) and Max Error is (.008).
    With the 6mm tip, Stand.Dev. is (.007) and Max Error (.014).

    The first length check looked promising but then they took a turn for the worse. See the other thread I have going.

    I was assuming my length tolerance of .040 would be 711.168 nominal, 711.128/711.208?

    What are the Range/2 and Std Deviation for the length check?
