Title: Probe plug in help getting sterio dots on z depth.. and cant stop probing.
Post by: rich05 on January 22, 2009, 03:19:00 PM

Nice work on the probe plug in.  I really is doing a great job.

couple things though.

I am getting two sets of reads for each datapoint.  One point is above the other.  i seems as if the retract and the probe signal are both giving points.  It kind of looks like two layers of dots. 
How can I get just one layer of reads, has anyone seen this problem?

I need to probe a large part.  Is there a way to pause a routine, save file and come back to it.  Once the probing starts seems there is no way to stop the routine.  Not reset, escape,pause nothing.  Seems there are times when you want the probe to stop and adjust things.  Do I need a special screen configuration file for this.  All I have to control the probe is a pull down.

thanks Rich

bump diddi bump...

nothing?  need a way to pause or end & save a probing routine.  Also probe plugin is generating datapoints on retract and on touch.
