2.6 Activation/Deactivation of the Measuring System
2.6.1 Touch probe/laser scanner in bi-directional mode
INFORMATION
In "ERROR" mode, the receiver scans the entire frequency range available to it for interference and internally
evaluates the available frequency bands for their quality.
If a measurement system (touch probe or laser scanner) is activated with a radio-wave signal, then the
information is simultaneously transmitted with the activation signal about which frequency band communication is
to be made (best quality). The transmission is a semi-duplex transmission, i.e. the signal transmission takes place
alternately in both directions.
1. Switching ON the measurement system:
1.1 Load the measurement system
1.2 Machine control transmits switch ON signal and activation code to receiver.
1.3 Receiver switches measurement system on by radio-wave signal and transmits the optimum frequency
band for further communication.
1.4 Measurement system transmits "READY" signals to receiver.
1.5 Receiver transmits "READY" signal to machine control.
1.6 Measurement system ready for use.
2. Switching OFF the measurement system:
2.1 Machine control sends switch-off signal to receiver.
2.2 The measurement system automatically switches to Standby mode as soon as no transmission
confirmation from the receiver is registered.
