Well there is one possible reason.... Why are you using version 043....

The recommended version tends to be 062 especially with motion controllers

043 was known to have a lot or pirated licences.... When you install the later versions they won't run (correctly) as I believe that artsoft introced occasional glitches into the software that did spurious things.... Like break tools... (Never heard of odd probing though)

You have to remember that the skip signal is very different to xyzabc motion.... Given the servos get given the steps that they need to travel and the following errors mean that it will still achieve those distances... But maybe a bit slower.... The skip motion (g31 probe), means when the skip is triggered motion stops..... A following error means the drive may "try" to continue onwards as the motion lags the steps

I did as indicated by ger21 and without code "G1 F4000 Z" & ZSal the measurement is always accurate but after that I need to get away from the probe and any code I used occasionally causes error.
Is there any solution? thank you

I solved, this is the macro.


CurrentFeed = GetOemDRO (818)
DoSpinStop ()

ZMove = 200
ZOffset = 49.725
StopZmove = 0

If GetOemLed (825) = 0 Then
DoOEMButton (1010)

Code "(PROBING IN PROGRESS)"
Code "G4 P2"
Code "G31 Z -" & ZMove & "F100"
While IsMoving ()
Wend

Probepos = GetVar (2002)
Code "G1 F150 Z" & Probepos 0.5
While IsMoving ()
Wend

Code "G31 Z -" & ZMove & "F25"
While IsMoving ()
Wend

Probepos = GetVar (2002)
If Probepos = -ZMove Then
responce = MsgBox ("** ERROR **", 4, "Probe ** ERROR **")

Code "G0 Z10"
StopZmove = 1

Code "F" & CurrentFeed
End If
If StopZmove = 0 Then

Code "G0 Z" & Probepos
While IsMoving ()
Wend

Call SetDro (2, ZOffset)

Code "G4 P2"
Code "F" & CurrentFeed
While IsMoving ()
Wend

Code "G1 F10000 Z60"
Code "(Z AXIS ZEROED)"
End If
else

Code "(ground probe)"
End If
Exit Sub
