    HSI-C can draw its power from the machine’s nominal +12 Vdc to +30 Vdc supply. Where such a supply is not available, the HSI-C can be powered using any +12 Vdc to +30 Vdc (minimum 0.5 A) power supply. The machine’s supply should be appropriately current limited to 10 A maximum.

    When changing the operating configuration of a first-generation MP250 it is necessary to either reset the power to the HSI-C, or activate the probe inhibit function. For instructions about the probe inhibit function, see “Probe inhibit function” on page 2.7. (This is not applicable to a second-generation MP250).

    +12 Vdc to +30 Vdc M-code (machine electrical output) connected directly to the HSI-C When using this method, it is recommended that the HSI-C is connected as shown in the following diagram. Alternatively, pin 11 (INHIBIT RETURN) on block 3 may be linked to pin 12 (0 Vdc) on block 3, rather than to the 0 Vdc circuit within the machine's CNC controller (common 0 Vdc only).
  • Page 16: M-Code (Machine Electrical Output) Driven Relay Contact

    M-code (machine electrical output) driven relay contact When using this method, it is recommended that the HSI-C is connected as shown in the following diagram. Shorting together pin 12 (0 Vdc) and pin 11 (INHIBIT RETURN) on block 3 (less than 100 W) will force the output into a seated state, irrespective of actual probe status, and remove power from the probe.
