TT4 lathe probe installation ver?

Post by jmezomatrix »

Hi,
Im trying to install a TT4 probe on my lathe.
Im running ver 4.64 and the description and specifications documentation says use CNC12 V4.5+ so I should be ok...
but I don't see the "TOOL TOUCH OFF TYPE" TT4 its not listed in the wizard.

Can I use KP3 as the probe selection?

Thanks,
John

You can use KP3 or mechanical in the Wizard to set up the probe.

please install and use the latest cnc12 version there has been a lot of improvements since v4.64 in the probe/tt area.
