  • Page 28: Arm Control

    System installation Arm control All I/O are “ACTIVE HIGH” configuration. Two separate machine tool control outputs are required to command the arm to move to “machine ready position” (MRC) and “arm ready position” (ARC). The user must ensure that both outputs are never active at the same time.

  • Page 30: Hsi Interface

    System installation HSI interface The HSI is a hard-wired transmission interface which converts inspection probe signals into voltage-free solid state relay (SSR) outputs for transmission to the CNC machine controller. The maximum SSR output operating current is 50 mA. Typically, installed within the CNC machine controller’s cabinet, and located away from sources of interference such as transformers and motor controls, the HSI can draw its power from the machine’s nominal 12 Vdc to 30 Vdc supply.

  • Page 32: Calibration

    Calibration Calibrating the probe The exact procedure adopted is specific to each machine, control system and software package. However certain rules are common. Before setting tools, it is necessary to calibrate the stylus position to establish its trigger points in relation to a datum on the machine. This can be achieved by the use of a known reference tool.
