    G31 Straight Probe and Path Pilot

    I am thinking about upgrading to Path Pilot and buying a passive probe. I was wondering if PP supports the G31 straight Probe command (G31 - Straight Probe | Tormach Inc. providers of personal small CNC machines, CNC tooling, and many more CNC items.). I did not see this listed in the Path Pilot manual and was curious. Is there a way that I could fully automate probing in Path Pilot? Basically, I would like to have a multi-part fixture plate where I use the probe to locate multiple part’s centers and set each on to a respective G59Px coordinate system. I know there are wizards in both Mach and Path Pilot to do this, but I would like to have a totally automated standalone probing sequence for fixtures.

    Well it doesn't look like G31 is supported but it does support G38.x which is much more flexible. This is used by all the PP probing subroutines.
