I don't know if it helps but the line;

SetOEMDRO(802,Probe)

Should read;

Call SetOEMDRO(802,Probe)

Thanks Tweakie.CNC, i tried that and same error. i think there may be something that
tells the code that there's an end of line.since the error includes the first two lines.
i also have a corner probe button without the "Call" inserted and works fine.
i'm at a lost but will keep looking. Thanks for your info !

try to copy the code from machsreen Editor to an other Editor like Notepad++, just to see that there is a correct CRLF at the
end of each line.

Hi Kenneth

When do you get that error message? When entering use data and close, or when you close MachScreen?

Hi Kenneth,

did you try to debug your script in Mach3 with the script debugger?

Select your page with the button
Menu Operator -> Edit button script
click the flashing button of interest

Hi Kenneth,

I suppose the buton of interest is "Height Probe". Try to change the "Standard Code" to 34 (Std  Execute Basic-Script)
