Breakout board question

Accessories Breakout Board

Hi,

Does the probe connection on the breakout board override the one in the controller or could you potentially have two probes attached to the machine? I was thinking of using the probe connection on the breakout board to wire a second probe in the front right corner to use with the bit setter macro from @BNB187 so we don’t have to keep moving the one probe.
Thoughts and/or ideas anyone?
Thanks

They can both work at the same time, they simply complete a circuit. The challenge to having 2 probes is there is only one setting in the controller for the probe thickness - if they are different thicknesses it can affect the precision of the setup if you were to use the different probes on the same project.
