6.10 Touch Probe
You can latch the feedback position with the following trigger events.
Trigger with Touch Probe Input 1 (EXT1 signal)
Trigger with Touch Probe Input 2 (EXT2 signal)
Trigger with encoder zero signal (phase C)
The following two touch probe latches can be used at the same time.
Touch Probe Input 1
− Latch control object: 60B8h (bits 0 to 7)
− Latch status object: 60B9h (bits 0 to 7)
− The latched position is always stored in touch probe 1 position value (60BAh and 60BBh).
− Trigger signal: Encoder zero signal or EXT1 signal
Touch Probe Input 2
− Latch control object: 60B8h (bits 8 to 15)
− Latch status object: 60B9h (bits 8 to 15)
− The latched position is always stored in touch probe 2 position value (60BCh and 60BDh).
− Trigger signal: Encoder zero signal or EXT2 signal
