  • Page 10: Trigger Logic

    OLP40 installation guide Trigger Logic™ All OLP40 settings are configured using the Trigger Logic™ technique. Trigger Logic™ (see Section 4 - Trigger Logic™) is a method that allows the user to view and select all available mode settings in order to customise a probe to suit a specific application.

  • Page 11: Modes Of Operation

    This method is required when operating a twin probe system with an OMI-2T or when operating multiple probes with the OSI with OMM-2 in multiple probe mode. After being switched on, the OLP40 must be on for 1 second minimum before being switched off. Timer off (time out) Time out will occur (12, 33 or 134 seconds) after the last probe trigger or reseat.

  • Page 12: Configurable Settings

    When the filter is enabled, a constant 10 ms delay is introduced to the probe output. The OLP40 is factory set to trigger filter off. NOTE: It may be necessary to reduce the probe approach speed to allow for the increased stylus overtravel during the extended time delay.
