Stylus System

[[An...]]

I started in a new lab with a G3 cmm, Calypso 21. The old programmer retired before I started so I have no one to answer my questions.  I'm trying to run a program and its asking for a certain probe but its not in the rack.  Based on the geometry of the probe, how do I rebuild this stylus system?  The stylus system is named StarrTip3.  The X value is 24.57, Y=0 and Z=-21.91 for one of the probes.  The other probe is X=43.78, Y=-.22 and Z=-21.69.

Do you use ID chips?

If you want to make a new stylus system, then just follow probe radius, it's length and position.
From this you have 3 and 5 position. Y won't matter and Z is roughly same. Those numbers are from center of disk / head to center of probe sphere.
