thank you for responding back to me i'm sorry i didin't put down enough info let me try this again,I'm running a Tormach 1100 and would like to know if there is a macro or sub-routine for Mach3 using a touch probe to establish the center of a part - say a dowel or square rod - starting with height of Z, then outside sides X and Y, compensating for probe tip thickness - then repositioning to just above the center of the part on Z axis, reseting DRO's to that new center position. I saw on youtube that a Hass and Fadal can accomplish this. When I checked with Tormach support staff, I was told that their version of Mach3 didn't have that ability. Any info would be appreciated.earlier today I heard back from Bob with G-Wazard he gave me a couple things to lookup so i'm following those leads. thanks again for responding back.
