Using simple-to- understand icons and menus, Read- y2Probe assists users in commands and codes to generate the measurement cycle within seconds, based upon the machine tool part program. Ready2Probe is a Windows based application that is compatible with the CNC control interface or a computer. Upon initiation of the Ready2Probe program, users can interact with all of the Mida products. The user then selects from a calibration, automatic or manual cycle. The software then prompts the user to input cycle time information along with an option to input additional requirements.Amacro string is then generated from this in- formation, which the user can copy or automatically transfer into a part program. If needed, the user can also write the macro directly into the CNC by clicking a single button. The software is intuitive. In addition to Windows availability, the software application is being developed for use on smart phones and tablets. Mobile applications are already available for Fanuc CNC users run- ning Android 4.1 and up and iOS 10.0 or later.
