probing ?

I noticed that there is a probing option in the drill op , at least with my post I am not getting  any g-code output . 

I am curious as to the output code and use . I am starting to look at probing with my flachcut controller , but from the looks of it I maybe better off with mach4 .

with Mach4 you can call Macro's to do your probeing. you may well be able to get your post changes to do this as well.

I downloaded the demo and  it looks a lot better than what I have now . It is hard to put a few grand of hardware on a shelf and go buy new stuff but a controller over Ethernet is looking good . 

I am not sure if fusion probing is a just going to probe in the z or if thare going to add more to  it .

yer M4 is not there yet but it is a tickel better than M3, and you can use a pokeys board there are more than one control option you can run them with them.

 

I think you can get something added to you post to do certain thing's at certain places in you code calls added that sort of thing

good to know .. I was looking at pokeys and asked a reseller about them . I was told they are awkward to wire and really didn't see to many people talking about them . not like smooth stepper . 

are you running them ?
