  1. Expand the Tool Trajectory parameter branch and notice that it shows only two parameters:

    1. Traveling OvershootTraveling Overshoot

      This determines how far beyond the measured point the probe will continue its motion in case the machining is wrong and the face is not found. In most controls, there is a default value for this distance in case a specific value is not set. This makes this parameter redundant if the post is set to use the machine default.

    2. Delta Z for Rapid MotionsDelta Z for Rapid Motions

      The Z level above the start point to change Rapid to Feed. This is the same as DZ/Feed Start in other procedures.

  2. Save & execute the procedure and preview the result.

    When using the Measurement procedures, a measurement probe is required for the procedure operations. This measurement probe can be defined in the Cutter Parameters tab of the Cutters and Holders dialog.
