It's Ethernet not USB, but that's probably better, and very affordable when ordered direct.

    Hi Kevin,

    I have the same card. Were you able to resolve the probing issues? If not then what replacement card did you use.

    If Abs(ZHit - Zstart - Z1) > 0.01 Then

    I don't know exactly why, maybe it's due to the accuracy of the machine, but 0.01 was too small for me. I use 0.02 and then it's fine.

    This function is similar in all files so if you face the problem you may have to change it everywhere.

    Best.
    Hi There,

    i even tried to increase the value to 5.01 for both z hit and xyhit. But I am still getting following error.

    Sun - 19:18:04 ---X+ = 204.109375
    Sun - 19:18:07 ---Error! Probe tripped during XY movement
    Sun - 19:18:07 ---Return to the search position is interrupted

    Do you have any idea why that might be.

    Re: Probe Wizard for Mach3

    Does anyone have the user manual for the Wizard? The Link doesn't seem to work anymore.
