Looking at a used machine with M400 control. Has a 5 axis Troyke 5 axis setup.
Does the M400 control handle the 5 axis probing, or is the 5 axis probing handled by the CAM?

It depends on when the control was set up.
If it is a ca. 1996 M400 control running CNC7, then the control handles the probing.
If it is a ca. 2015 M400 control running CNC11, then I am pretty sure Mastercam posts the probing programs.
Find out the control serial number, then call Centroid's Performance Racing group and ask.

Year of machine is 2006.
System ID is 0116081457.
Where can I tell owner to look for M400 version, and control serial number if it's different than system id?
