I have automatice probe cycles setup in my "other" CAM system. I am looking at how easy or difficult it will be to set up similiar cycles in NX.

I need to be able to pick a point and have dialog box open up and depending on my choice of probe routines be able to define certain variables for my Fanuc B macros.

Does anyone have something like this set up?

If so could you provide just a snippet of how you did it.

We are seeing limitations of the CAM end of the software as compared to our other package from an ease of use issues to setting up a system that is functional for our use. So this is an issue I need to be able to work towards a solution on, if one exists.

Thanks
