Re: [Emc-users] snagged touch probe on eBay - anybody know how to interface ?

forgot to add to my previous , they use an ir signal from the reciever box to switch the unit on so long as the probe is recieving then it remains transmitting , on loss it times out and switches off this signal can include requesting the probe battery status etc , but i have not yet decoded that

Re: [Emc-users] snagged touch probe on eBay - anybody know how to interface ?

I have a Valeron probe that also had an infra red transmission, was too lazy to reverse engineer and just cleaned the contacts and wired direct, some probes have adjustable force, some are set to a high force mine was mounted on CAT50 so is a brute.

Re: [Emc-users] snagged touch probe on eBay - anybody know how to interface ?

i had the same problem with a Renishaw ir probe , so i reverse engineered the ir protocol took me a few nights to sort it . they send a packet continuosly, and on contact touch the data stops in the packet is id , batt condition, and a checksum i'd guess they may have done something similar

Re: [Emc-users] Probably stupid question.

One propane torch (a good one) in a wind less area might be able to get that dark red. You might need two propane torches to really get it into the red range. Do you happen to have a weed burner ?That would do it. I drill quite a bit of hot roll and don't have any issues. If you need some

I default to cobalt drills for most jobs. They are more expensive, but I've never actually dulled one on anything less than a nasty SS. N. Christopher Perry > On Aug 12, 2016, at 6:59 PM, Dave Cole wrote: > > One propane torch (a good one) in a wind less area might

Re: [Emc-users] snagged touch probe on eBay - anybody know how to interface ?

Hi, I recently set up various probing systems(Renishaw, Heidenhain, Mahrpos) with linuxcnc, and of course I could not resist reverse engineering the protocol. All systems I observed had the following in common: - sometimes the optical box is only the analog fronted, and the conversion happens in

Re: [Emc-users] snagged touch probe on eBay - anybody know how to interface ?

I have an LT02 with LP2 probe that I need the protocol to switch it on although for a backup I got a standard socket (FC3 iirc) that the LP2 can fit in so normal wired connection can be used Dave Caroline -- What NetFlow

Greetings all; At what temp do I have to get a piece of hot roll to in order to soften the ultra hard core of the steel? Is it something this toaster oven can achieve given enough soak time at about 425F? Doing the hole, which I haven't tapped yet, for the 4mm gib adjuster screw last night,
