#### Using Fast Probe Mode

The Insert | Parameter Change | Probe | Fast Probe Mode menu item lets you insert a FASTPROBEMODE/OFF command into the Edit window. To enable this fast probing mode, after inserting this command, highlight OFF and press F8 to change it to ON.

This probing mode applies to analog scanning probes when taking individual hits rather than scanning. When turned ON it provides a significant reduction in the time required to take individual hits. The biggest reduction in time occurs when the probe retracts from the part.

Note: This command only functions with analog scanning probes on certain types of machines. If you have a part program with this command in it but your machine or probe type does not support it, the command will not do anything.
