Get Tip defaults to the wrong tip that was programed

Get Tip defaults to the wrong tip that was programed

Hello all,
I'm new to CMM programming and the QX software.
When I create a program using my Tip Manager, all calibrated, and use a standard probe assembly and get tip for a 3mm tip it will default to a 1mm tip when I try to run the program.  I have manually changed the tip before running the alignment but in the measure circle op it can't be changed when the machine thinks its in motion. Trying to modify the program in the path results in a default to 1mm tip unless I use a different tip (1mm tip with  A30B45 for example). What am I doing wrong??
Can't figure it out, any thoughts?
