#### Step 2 - Define the Mount Point

The Mount Point for your FCR25 Probe Changer is the location in front of your probe changer where the machine will move before it picks up or drops off a probe. You should determine a location that will avoid collision with the probe changer or part.

Probe Changer dialog box - Mount Point tab

To provide the Mount Point for your FCR25 Probe Changer, follow these steps:

1. Select the Mount Point tab from the Probe Changer dialog box.

2. Select TYPE=FCR25 from the Active Probe Changer list.

3. Alter the Probe Head Wrist Angle for both A Angle and B Angle. Typically, but not always, these values will be 0 and 0 respectively. You need to use a calibrated probe rotation that will ensure that the probe has the ability to move in and out of the probe rack during the necessary steps of the probe rack calibration procedure.

4. Using your jog box, manually move your machine to the desired mount point position.

5. Click the Read Machine button. This will populate the X, Y, and Z Machine Position values with the current position. You may also manually type these values.

6. Click Apply to save your changes.

In the next step you will define the ports used by your probe changer.
