MP-170 Touch probe will not rearm

In Auto mode, the touch probe was deflected and failed to rearm after backing away from the surface. This may happen because of an obstruction or an internal problem.

As a result, the system goes into Manual mode.

You should free the probe if it is obstructed, or check and adjust the probe tension. Put the system back into Auto once the probe is rearmed to allow the program to continue.
