If you are a probe user, you may be interested in the abilities built into the MachStdMill software:

I looked at that, thank you.

I downloaded Stirling's program, but i can't get it working. Probe comes down, moves forward to contact, retracts, moves forward to contact and then stops. I have adjusted speeds and acceleration up and down. I'm not sure what to try next. I think I'm almost there. Help.

EDIT: By Stirling. As I explained in our PM correspondence it clearly states in your controller manual that Ajax handles G31/probing differently from the standard Mach3 way and that's why my routines don't work FOR YOU. It's unlikely that ANY Mach probing routines will work with the Ajax controller UNLESS they're specifically written for it.
