Are these probes compatible with the current probes included in the software?

Almost certainly not. They have the right connector so they'll plug in, and they're likely the proper type (thermistor) so they will probably read something when you plug them in, but there are hundreds of different thermistors for this application so it is very unlikely that they just happen to use the same thermistor in them as one of our supported probes. Because they don't mention them as being compatible with anything but Thermopro, I'd assume that's not the case.
If you do try them, make sure you test them at room temperature and boiling water to make sure they read the right thing at both temperatures. Thermistors are rated at 25C so there are many that read the same at room temperature, but their curve is different so the error would get greater and greater. Do not attempt to use the "Offset" field to just make it match at one temperature.
