Updated to 4.18 mechanical touch probe and Tool setter everything is working but it does not disable the spindle and the probe tripped does not stop the movement when jogging with the vcp but it does work when using the mpg

fyi..
Tool setters don't disable the spindle..
Probes do disable the spindle. An input set to "ProbeDetect" will disable the spindle so you don't wrap the touch probe cord up in the spindle by accident.
Spindle inhibit is not on by default for Tooltouchoffdetect as its unnecessary for most applications.

Dholman,
looking at your report file, the probes can't work the way you have configured them.
I guess you meant to configure Input 7 as "ToolTouchOffTriggered" and not "ToolTouchOffDetect". You can't have a detect input without a probe.
