Changing qualification mode

[[Me...]]

I am currently trying to switch my qualification mode from “qualify passive stylus” to “geometry re-qualification” in the probe qualification settings. Anytime I am trying to do so, the options are ghosted out and I can’t switch them for certain probes. 
 

We have been able to do this before on the specific Contura that I am operating. I just don’t want it to take 2 hours and re-qualify all existing angles due to time constraints. Is there another way I can switch the mode?

Hi Meaghan,

In the probing system qualification window, be sure to click on the blank box that is immediately to the left of the stylus name. You should see a black arrow appear. This activates the Geometry Requalification option. See below.

Thank you Roy, I work with Meaghan and we are both trying to figure out why its not working. We already tried doing what you had suggested as that is the only way we know how to set re-qual. This used to work fine for us then one day it would not let some of our probes be set to requalify. We can do it on some and not others and that is the confusing part. I have touched off the master sphere using the re-qualification (I know in the screenshot it doesn't look like I did because I took this after) opened the qualification program we have, and selected the probe, still grayed out. This issue seems to only affect the RDS probes, as you can see our star probe will allow us to set it to requalification. 

 

The weird part is this is only affecting our ball 1 program. I am able to set the RDS and star probe to requalification on ball 2. So why is this not the case for ball 1?
