it does xyz single touch, holes, bosses, etc. you type in some part geometry, and it exports the codes. it is able to probe a feature that is not at the work offset zero. you need to type in the offset, but say you had your origin on a vise corner, you can probe a piece of stock away from that place, but using the offset, load the correct origin.
