Probe configuration
It is recommended that the Probe Setup app is used to configure the probe.
The Probe Setup app simplifies the process of configuring Renishaw machine tool probes compatible
with Opti-Logic™ or Trigger Logic™.
The app provides clear, step-by-step, visual instructions and video tutorials to guide a user through the
process of setting up and configuring a Renishaw machine tool probing system.
The Probe Setup app is available for download on the App Store and Google Play and also from
several app stores in China.
or
Opti-Logic™
Opti-Logic is the process of transmitting and receiving data from the app to a Renishaw machine tool
probe using pulses of light; for more information, see page 4.1, “Configuring the probe using the
Probe Setup app”.
Trigger Logic™
Trigger Logic™ (for further information, see page 4.2, “Reviewing the probe settings”) 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. Trigger Logic is activated by battery insertion and uses a sequence of stylus
deflections (triggering) to systematically lead the user through the available choices, observed via the
LED display, to allow selection of the required mode options.
Current probe settings can also be reviewed by simply removing the batteries for a minimum of
5 seconds, and then replacing them to activate the Trigger Logic review sequence (for further
information, see page 4.2, “Reviewing the probe settings”).
