Going by the sparse instructions it came with, as well as instructions I found here: How to Calibrate WIPS - Dozuki
I managed to calibrate the thing and use it and it worked fine, next time I go to use it the tool heights were off by like 5 inches or so.
Theres a long-ish run job on the machine now so I can't try again but it's bugging the crap out of me.
The only thing I can think of is maybe after you calibrate it you have to use the same pocket every time you use the work probe? Is that right?
I ASSumed it stored the probe length in a parameter but could it actually use a tool height value instead??
Thanks
