9.6.2 General mode of operaon
If an event occurs at the congured touch probe source, a me stamp is detected in the servo
in
verter.
The detected me stamp is related to the system me and can thus be divided into two parts:
One part is the control cycle in which the of the event. The other part is the me dierence
starng from the detected control cycle to the real detecon of the event
Thanks to a history buer, the servo inverter knows the last n posion values. Thus, the actual
posion is known at the start and at the end of the control cycle in which the event has occur-
red. A linear interpolaon takes place between these two posion grid points. The result is
the exact posion at the motor sha at the me the event is triggered, see the schemac dia-
gram:

The posion grid points are detected in the servo inverter in a grid of 250 µs. Aer a touch
probe has been triggered, the input is deacvated for up to 250 µs to avoid bouncing. Thus,
the maximum frequency for touch probe triggering is 4 kHz.
If in contrast to the uniform movement given in the gure, an accelerated movement is taken
as a basis, the 250 µs grid also allows for a very good linear posion reconstrucon because
the speed change at the motor sha only has a marginal impact in 250 µs.
9.6.3 Filtering of the touch probe signal
For the touch probe inputs, a common lter me (debounce me) can be parameterised to
debounce the TP signals so that there is no response to external interfering signals.
•
The signal s
tatus of the debouncing lter is detected at the TP input and a new value is
added t
o the lter.
•
A separ
ate seng for a touch probe is not possible. Thus, the lter me is set for all touch
pr
obe inputs.

The set lter me is automacally taken into account in the touch probe
calculaon.
The seng "0" deacvates the lter.
Note!
Values can be set directly. When entering a lter me between
0 ... 1984 µs, the value is automacally rounded down internally to the
next value that can be set and is shown in the case of read requests.
