Resources>>Utilities>>Probing System Qualification

Under Characteristics double click and open up the probe qual characteristic you just added and from here add in your probes.
Do this for Each probe. You can name the probe system anything you want in the upper text area where it reads Probing system qualification. This is the name that will show in the characteristic tab once you are done. I name mine the same name as the probe.

I guess this is what your looking for if not post back

That's what I do to run the calibration program, but what I need is a program to verify that stylus still calibrated. what i was thinking of doing was measure sphere, set xyz origin and than inspect all 5 positions, they all should be close to 0. and do that for each styli.

Thanks for the reply.

The verification will likely NOT be zero so you'll need to set up an acceptable tolerance.

I going to set it at .0002" and output XYZ and roundness and just take 5 points on sphere. I'm hoping it will catch any flats on stylus.

Thanks!
