Hi, here is an example of some Gcode:

(2D Profile1)
N20 G0 X-43.722 Y-24.879
N25 G31 Z-100. F5219.2(probe command)
N30 G92 Z0.
N35 G0 Z15 (retract height)
N40 G0 Z3.8(pierce height)
the PP is specifying the feed rate @F5219.2 during the probe command (this is the cutting speed for the plasma / material thickness) at this speed it is traveling to fast for the Z to stop when the ohmic sensor detects the top of material.
Any ideas on how I can specify the probe Feed rate independent of the cutting speed ?
Thanks
I have come to find that the
Leed-In Feed-rate
located in the Tool Feed-rates affects the specified Probe feed rate, I will experiment with how slow I can set that federate for leed-in and still have acceptable entry points for plasma cutting.
I have virtually the same question (posted here: https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/fusion-360-support/2d-plasma-cutting-setting-probe-feed-rate-independ...)
Did you ever find out how to set the probe and lead-in feed rates independent of each other?
Thanks in advance
OK. Thank you for your reply. If I come across an answer, I'll post it here.
Can you guys post an example Gcode that has this problem.
Sure. They're in the post I linked to. If you'd look that over too, I'd appreciate it. Sure would be a help in streamlining the process.
I'll post the screenshots here, as well
Thanks for the reply
I want a Gcode, not a picture.
OK. Here's the G-Code text. Tried posting the actual file, but it won't let me.

Hi,
Reading this you could probably just add a user parameter for your probing speed. Could you attach your post and F3D file.
I will happily take a look at this for you, I work mainly on the Milling probing but would be interested to know how you use probing for Laser/plasma/water.
I've tried posting the ".tap" file, but it won't seem to let me. Is there a way to do this that I'm not catching?
The G-Code for it (as I'm sure you can tell) is posted above, if that helps. Here's the public link to my F3D file: https://a360.co/33ybu3x
Not sure if it'll work, or not. I haven't tried it until now. It's just a simple line test.
If you want to take a look at my recent post (I have virtually the same question), it's here: https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/fusion-360-support/2d-plasma-cutting-setting-probe-feed-rate-independ...
I have a couple of pictures attached there that detail what the issue is.
Thanks for your response and I appreciate the potential help.
To post a G code change it to a .txt or stick it in a zip file and attach that.
Attaching a model To do this Go to File -> Export and save as a .F3D Archive File and attach it to your next post, or if an f3dz See this article for how to export a F3Dz file https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/fusion-360/learn-explore/caas/sfdcarticles/sfdcarticles/How-t...
For pictures, you use the insert photo icon to the right of the smiley faces above.
Figured I was missing something. Thank you. Here's all the info I can think to give. Anything else you need, just let me know. I'll give as much information as I can.
I've attached the .f3d file and g-code .txt file. Also, I'm using Mach3 to run my table. I've attached my current configuration file, as well (if it helps).
Here are the pictures from my recent post:
I would like the Lead-In Feedrate to match the Cutting Feedrate on output from the post processor.
As of now, setting the "Lead-In Feedrate" sets both the probe and lead-in as one feedrate.
I know I can manually edit the G-Code to the rates I want, but I'm hoping there is a way to do this automatically.
@Anonymous @malmquistm do you have a feed amount you would like for the probing I can hard set it to a value.
On my machine I have found 750 mm/in to produce good reliable results, Slow but accurate
@malmquistm You mean 750mm/min
@malmquistm @Anonymous Right I added a user property of probe feed you use this to set the probe feed rate, It seems to be working fine for me.

@seth.madore can you please give them a kick and get .cps, add to the list of what can get attached to posts.
It used to be on the list. I'll get on them 👍
Hey Daniel. Thanks for your reply.
I haven't had a chance to try this out, yet. I will let you know how it works out.
