i'm looking at a renishaw MP10 IR probe iv'e posted some snipps of what i am , ( or better think i am ) getting as an output
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/kwjxef6k4ptbhhb/AABdCLSjzypH574XoXJv_it3a?dl=0 it looks to me all it's doing is giving a constant mark space ratio , and stopping on a probe hit , surely it cant be that simple , or could it i must admit at this point , i have not dug anydeeper as yet , or really looked to see if i can find any data , but it's very obvious everything stops on a hit i was expecting some data or id and say battery condition , but just early days found i had a better signal using a 1838 ir that a qse159 but i may need some better signal conditioning at the moment On 28 September 2016 at 02:01, Gene Heskett <ghesk...@shentel.net> wrote: > On Tuesday 27 September 2016 13:19:49 Jon Elson wrote: > > > On 09/27/2016 10:36 AM, Gene Heskett wrote: > > > On Tuesday 27 September 2016 09:29:47 Ken Strauss wrote: > > >> The discussion has been regarding the optically coupled probe.
