4. GETTING STARTED
4.1 Displacement Modes : Manual/Motorized
4.1.1 Manual Displacement Mode
V3, V4 & V8
The manual displacement of the carriage is carried out with
the help of the handle. This is the only possible
displacement mode for V3 & V4. The V8 has a fine
adjustment.
V5 & V6
Push the handle inwards in order to pass into manual
mode. In manual mode, V5 & V6 are used in the same way
as V3 & V4.
4.1.2 Motorized Displacement Mode (V5 & V6)
Pull the handle outwards to work in motorized mode. In this
mode, the rotating handle can be tucked inside for
ergonomic reasons.
The motorized displacement is carried out with the 2
buttons situated behind the handle. For other motorized
displacement methods, see § 10.4.
Rapid Displacement
A prolonged pression on one of the buttons causes a rapid
movement in the chosen direction. The carriage will
continue its displacement as long as the pressure is
maintained.
Slow Displacement (Probing)
A short pressure causes a continuous displacement in
probing speed, i.e. speed used for measuring. As soon as
the probe gets in touch with a surface, a measurement is
made.
Release of Probe
When the probe is in contact with the part (after probing),
a short pressure on the button for the opposite direction
allows to release the probe (ca. 0.5 mm).
Movement Stop
While displacing in low speed mode, a short pressure on
the button for the same direction as that of the
displacement will stop the movement.
