OAK lathe setup to use a tool touch off probe?

[RTech]

I would like to setup a tool touch off probe on my OAK controlled lathe. Is there a PDF document for this (typically wiring and parameters)?

I've seen the TT-4 probe offered for lathes (https://shopcentroidcnc.com/shop/cnc-pr ... touch-off/), but I've only found the documentation for setting it up on a mill.

My main question is what should the probe input be wired to and parameter 244 set to? Mechanical Probe Input 769 or AUX Probe Input 772?

Thanks,
Jim

Well, I wired it up on AUX Probe 772 and it seems to work.

I got a deal on an old Renishaw HPA probe arm and installed it. I had to make a bracket that tied into the headstock to make it stiff enough and it appears to be adequate. The bonus is no axis movement is allowed with the probe arm removed and the protective cap not installed.
