9 3D Touch Probes
u,
9.4 Digitizing with a Triggering 3D Touch Probe (Optional)
.
STARrnG mm P
Enter the coordinates of the starting position, e.g., X = 50 mm
Y = 0, and confirm your entry.
Enter the approach direction, for example Y-.
-
e.g.
Enter the starting direction, for example X+.
Enter the distance of travel by which the probe moves away from the
surface during scanning, for example 0.5 mm.
J
4
Enter the line spacing, e.g. 1 mm. The algebraic sign determines the
direction in which the probe moves to start the next contour line.
e.g.~O~
Enter the maximum probe point interval, for example 0.2 mm.
