    I am getting this error message when trying to start a job. Not sure what it means or how to fix it.

    Thanks in advance,
    Duane

    Probing with a V-Bit is incorrect, you can't position it correctly because of the taper - thats why it touches the side inside of centered inside the hole as it should be. Use a normal endmill or dowel pin to probe.

    The alarm says its touching the plate (which it is, because you are trying to probe with a non-cylinderical object)
