    Hawk 5 m probe?

    My Hawk 5m has the probe option installed, but I did not recieve it with a probe. Does anyone know what probes are compatable and what port on the machine id be conecting too? I do know it is looking for a pulse signal if I program in a probe move. I cannot tell if it is a pre setter its looking for or part contact.

    As far as I remember, you can't have probing on a Hawk5. Seems it may have the software option mistakenly installed on it.

    I was a bit shocked to see it as well, but it had a pentium 4 processor and v 2.21 software updated in 2002 with your famous eurohead so I wasnt going to rule it out.
