(;-) I have been working on and testing a NEW 3d Probing routine that runs as a SUB routine in Gcode. Running in Gcode it is stone cold dependable and will probe as fast as you dare pushing your machine (;-). I have been probing at 100 ipm which in real world speed is actually an average of about 53 IPM taking into account the small moves. AND that used to be scary fast for Mach3 probing.
Hope to have it finished up soon. I have been beating up on it all day testing, So far SO good.
You also may want to check with Stirling on his new 3d routine.
His routine is the CAT"S MEOW , Mine is the RNPS routine (Red Neck Probing System)

Thanks TP, Can't wait to try yours. I looked for Sterlings but it looks like he pulled it from his web site. I can not believe there is not a good probing routine for Mach. Do you know of a stand alone program maybe? I know there are lots of people probing what do they use?
I have searched the web but no luck.
Thanks
Fred
