We purchased a inexpensive probe from ebay and added it to the machine. We bored a hole and then calibrated the probe to it. It was within .0002 but adjusted it a bit more and now it is closer.
One direction - we copied the way the tool chain worked on the original control. The tools are barcoded so I don't keep track of the pockets. When I call tool 19983 or whatever - the chain spins until the reader physically finds the tool and preps it. Maybe someday we might change it - but it works well right now for us.

interesting set of vids, does the tool chain always travel in one direction or is it bidirectional?
