When I press probe, it automatically thinks I touched the bit to the probe and then probes way off the block. Electrical issue?
Are you on an Elite machine? If so, the probing process is different from BB controller. For instance, if you are probing on the bottom left corner of your workpiece, you would press the top right corner on the probe image on the masso touch screen. And yes, it doesn’t have the double-check of touching the plate to the bit to ensure conductivity.
Journeyman. I was told its a grounding issue. Im searching for a solution
Are you using a grounded spindle or have you grounded the frame? Some users have reported the probe polarity is wired such that when you attach the magnet to the spindle it completes the circuit and completes the probe cycle.
Journeyman Elite or Journeyman X-50?
In this case you got to wire the plate end of the cable to the positive pin of the probe socket on the controller, as explained here.
