Having got just about everything working on my new to me Sieg, there is one last item that is causing me grief – getting the touch probe to work. My machine is USB and thus has a Leafboy AKZ250 motion controller. I know the inputs are working as I have my conductive probes working but I can’t get the 3D probe to work. Wiring is as per the instructions and ports/pins settings are, as far as I know, correct. The probe is one like this:

Anyone have one of these configured on their system? My current thought is that there is a compatibility issue…..
