I've look on a search and didn't find my answer, so here it goes.
I bought a new probe and it came with another wire with it. There wasn't anything in the box or instrustions that mention the extra wire. One end has a phone plug and the other has a usb connections, I think.
Can someone with more intell explain what the wire is for and how to use it?
Thanks,
John Hammett

That wire is for the new style Z Pack. The newer ones plug the probe into a fitting on the left side, instead of onto the Z pack. Keep it. If you ever need to get your Z pack worked on, they will probably install the new style...

Probe extension cable,

On the pad side of the machine near the homing position,
you will see a flat set of terminals about a third of the way down the inside of the machine

Thanks, I was at a loss to where I was going to use the cable. As a matter of fact, my machine is at LHR now for repair. When it gets back it might have a new Z pack installed, who's to know.
Thanks again for the intel. I read everything I could find and didn't have a clue to where the cable went. Once it the machine is back at home, I'll let you know how it scans. Looking forward to using it.
