Phil is on the right track. Try this.... Go into the service program, and bring up the vacuum force indicators. Manually install a spring loaded tool into the Midas head. Once the tool is in the head, press on the tip of the nozzle with your finger.

Ed: Our Mydata TP9-UFPs are down when we are using them to write programs. That Excel macro from Mydata would be a godsend. We would be very interested in getting and using the macro. Please contact me. Thanks. John
