Adding a probe holder that 90 Degrees to the Rest

[[Ke...]]

I'm trying to add an additional probe holder that needs to be an X-axis Loading position. But I keep getting a pop-up Error "WRONG CHANGER POSITION". I have located it with the Master Probe and manually change the probe changing direction in the approach tab, to both "+X" and -X". Always getting the same error, any help is appreciated. thanks.

First impressions, I would try a few things:
1) Delete the holder from the stylus changer window.
2) Create a new holder (make sure it is of the correct type, in this case it should be MT I believe)
3) Before locating with the masterprobe, set the approach direction in the approach tab (It appears that it should be -X)

Hopefully this takes care of the issue. I have set up plenty of CMMs with probes in 2 or even 3 directions, usually when I see this error it is from changing the approach after teaching the pocket with the masterprobe

Thank you Sir, I'll try that this morning. That WORKED!!!!

Glad it worked.
Calypso does not like (in fact it basically will not work) changing the approach direction after teaching the location with the Masterprobe. You should be able to rectify this by immediately reteaching the location with the Masterprobe after changing the approach direction, but personally I always just delete and recreate the pocket, since it is not a task done that often and a crash during probe change is one of the most annoying to recover from and potentially very damaging.
