I must be misunderstanding how the probe protection works with the KP-3. When I plug it in and go to the boring cycle it says probe detected and shows the trip status. So it does know when it's plugged in. On my MPG however it acts weird. With the probe plugged in I can move any axis using the MPG in x1, x10, and x100. When the probe is NOT plugged in however I can only move an axis with the MPG in x1. I can still use the jog buttons in x1, x10, or x100 with it plugged in or not.

Here is my report file.

Your probe inputs are not setup correctly. If it reads “probe tripped” as soon as you plug it in then the probe input (nc or no) is opposite of what it should be.

When I say "shows the trip status" i mean it shows it accurately. It does not show tripped when it is simply plugged in. It shows tripped when it is indeed tripped.

Reverse the logic of the probe detect input
