Probing Question

Postby CNC22369 » Mon Nov 19, 2018 8:29 pm

UCCNC test version 1.2106

When performing a G31 X straight probing operation I was getting a probe hit position (var 5061) that included an unexpected offset. This of course gave me an incorrect final position after I applied the probe's tip radius to var 5061. After some investigation I realized the non-zero value in the Probe (tip) Radius field in the Tools --> Probe settings tab was also being applied (included in var 5061) when I performed the G31. When I set this field to zero, then I got the result I was expecting from the G31 operation. Is this the correct (intended) result for a G31, or should the Probe Radius value in the Tools --> Probe settings only be applied when a M40 is active?

Thank you.

Apologies if this topic has already been covered.
