F.4.2 USE THE CONTACT PROBE
Unlock the counterbalance to free the arm and hold the arm wrist in one hand. Approach the part with the
probe, ensure the ball is touching the surface and press the trigger button on the arm to record a
measurement point (XYZ coordinate).
F.4.3 TOUCH TRIGGERING PROBE
Touch triggering probes (TTP) automatically take points when the ball of the probe touches the surface.
Those probes reduce the effort when the probe is in contact with the surface. This is very useful for soft
surfaces, movable parts, etc…
The TTP is composed of a TKJ TTP base, on which a M8 Trigger sensor (such as TesaStar) can be
mounted.
