Need help on building a Renishaw M2 Cylinder Styli "M-5000-4153". Got it from Renishaw but it isn't in the probe list (PROBE.DAT). It is a 3mm cylinder tip.

Thanks!!

Hi, Did you have any luck with this question? I have just bought the exact same styli, and it is still not in the probe list. I have emailed our machine supplier, but no response yet.

Thanks

This was in the code section. Not exactly the same thing but the same idea. It should point you in the right direction.

You should be able to find the above in your list.

Maybe they got smart and took it out of the list, because unless its perfectly square(impossible) to whats its hitting it will add error into the measurement.
