VER 2018. Building a probe and bought a new Renishaw knuckle ( A5003-4697 ...

) and it is not in the Probe Description drop down menu?

What do I do to update my Probe Description menu to show this knuckle so that I can install it into my build?

KNUCKLE_M2_13.5mm isn't the one you need?

[Paul Sarrach]

I have that one. And the 11.5 also.

[bfire85]

Part Number A5003-4697 comes up as the 13.5mm. What part number is the 11.5 one?

[bfire85]

You don't see these at all? Both releases of 2018 on my end show knuckles in the probe list.

No, only the M2. I have the latest version of 2018. What do you have?

[bfire85]

I have 2019 R1, but still have both versions of 2018 on my offline seat. Both have what I attached above.

Your exact part number is defined as stated.

[Paul Sarrach]

So what do I do? I have 2018 and 2019

[AndersI]

It's there in those versions too. What is your exact build - have you selected an extension that doesn't end in M2?
