Finally I have taken the plunge and I installed and got gSender running. I have just started a roughing pass for a carving of a duck in 3D. I was able to run @NeilFerreri’s macro for using BitSetter. I hope that the information stored in the macro is inserted into the macros for the subsequent tool change.

I wanted to try the probing routines but I use a BitZero 2 probe and the routine is begun with the probe already in the hole of the device. If any person know how to implement the inbuilt probe routine for BitZero, I would be much obliged to get good information on how to use the BitZero 2 with the gSender probe routines.

Pix: The rough cut pass in progress. American maple wood. Cutter 1/4" 2 flute, carbide endmill with 22mm flute length.

@jepho I think I saw you continue this conversation in another thread so I’ll close this one 🙂

> I have a BitZero 2 probe. The inbuilt probe routine of gSender is looking for a solid probe. BitZero 2 has a hole that is used to locate the probe before the routine starts. Does anyone have any information on utilising the inbuilt gSender probe routine with BitZero 2? All information. received with thanks
