Alpha Profile 1500 fixtures seem to have a significant difficulty with “Click to Focus” Accuracy. Has any one else experienced issues with specific fixtures? Is there any resolution when a fixture doesn’t seem to be responding as expected?

are you looking exclusively at an A3D screen to judge that it doesn't work sufficiently? or are you clicking on screen but judging on stage that it doesn't work? is there a difference between stage and screen?
We are up in the theatre. Alpha Profile 1200 fixtures once calibrates seem spot on, while Alpha Profile 1500 fixtures are significantly off. We have a 0,0,0 marker on the stage that once the 1200 series fixtures have been calibrated they hit within inches while the 1500 series are several feet off in various directions.
but on screen the hit the mark?

Correct. The calibration using 4 distinct FPE points creates (Focus Pallettes 9921-9924 in FPE Set 6) fails to create accuracy on stage, but within augmented it is going to the correct spot.
this either means that the positions calculated by FPE are not correct or the fixture profile isn't accurate (e.g. wrong pan/tilt ranges). or both, since an pan/tilt ranges will make FPE fail.
