The first thing you need to know about using the probe multiblock, is that the multiblock itself launches probes. This means that your starship will need to be equipped with a [[magazine]].

Using The Probe Launcher
The first thing you need to know about using the probe multiblock, is that the multiblock itself launches probes. This means that your starship will need to be equipped with a magazine. Additionally, the launcher counts as a heavy weapon, and as such if you have any other heavy weapon on the ship (if possible), you will need nodes. To launch probes, once loaded into the magazine on an active ship, you simple use it like any other heavy weapon, by right clicking a few times. From there you will get info on Cosmic Signatures within a 7500 block radius in the system you're in using Scanner Probes, and other ships in the same radius if using Combat Probes.
