WCS not supported

Hi, I'm trying to relocate the Y on a simple part I'm doing in the A axis vise. It;s tough to get the part perfectly in the middle so I want to probe the part again when it rotates 180 degrees. All I want it to do is reset the Y but from the other side. When I try and post this out I get an error telling me

Error: Updating WCS / work offset using probing is only supported by the CNC in the WCS frame.

Is there any way to achieve this? TIA

I've attached the file

Hi @CHAY.HOBSON 

By default the probing wcs on indexing is not supported unless you have workplane transformation codes(G68.2 in fanuc). 

you can edit the post to support for the probe on indexing. Open the post in any editor and find for 

var allowIndexingWCSProbing = false;  // specifies that probe WCS with tool orientation is supported

and change it to 

var allowIndexingWCSProbing = true; // specifies that probe WCS with tool orientation is supported

 

Save the post and carefully test it and let me know the feedback

Thank you for the quick answer. As there is an error it only posts the code to that probing cycle. I have checked through the code and I can't see the section you mentioned. I have attached the code produced.

It won't let me edit the post. When I click on the pencil nothing happens.
