I haven't had a problem with my first few scans, but today, I tried to scan an object, and ran into a bit of a problem...
I go into the 1) Scan an area, option, and it homes itself without any problem. I am then prompted to jog to a beginning corner. I do so, and press, [ENTER]. At this point, the scanning probe drops perhaps 1/32 in., and then the screen flashes back to the jog to the starting corner prompt rather than asking me to confirm (If I press and hold ENTER, the Press ENTER to Confirm language appears, but disappears as soon as I release ENTER). If I press ENTER again, the probe drops another 1/32 in.
I go to the options and sensor check to try to figure out what is going on- and the probe shows that it is closed, and goes open when I press lightly in any direction. I move the truck side to side and the z-truck up and down, and observe that the sensor numbers appear to change appropriately.
Moving the Z-truck up and down, I don't feel any binds or kinks.
I've re-flashed my firmware, just in case, but it didn't change anything.
So, the question is this: Does anyone have any idea what I might check to determine why the probe is acting this way?

Update: I tried carving and it's able to carve just fine. The only problem seems to be when scanning. So, the question is, what exactly is the machine checking when you press the enter key to indicate that you have gone to a corner of the scan, and what would stop it from going down and prompting me to press enter to confirm?
