Versa Probe Usage (pg1)

Basic Process

Install the probe into the spindle.

Manually jog the probe tip to about 2-10 mm above the workpiece surface.

Manually jog the XY position to about the position indicated by the colored dot on the appropriate button of the Probe Screen.

Fill in the probing parameters. When you change any of the parameters, they are automatically saved in the PREFERENCES file specified in the INI file.

Hit only the button that corresponds to the position of the probe above the workpiece.

All the probe routines end with XY moving to the probed point (or edge, or corner, or center). The Z height is restored to the original starting position.
