RMP600 is the latest generation compact radio transmission probe using
strain gage technology. Measuring only 63 mm in diameter and 76 mm
in length, with an omni-directional transmission distance of 15 m, it is
ideal for use on all machine tools. RMP600 features an integrated probe
module delivering exceptional robustness and generous overtravel.
It delivers interference-free transmission through the use of FHSS
(frequency hopping spread spectrum). RMP600 complies with FCC
regulations and operates in the 2.4 GHz range.
RMP600 supports three methods of probe activation:
Radio-on The probe is turned on via an RF signal produced by the RMI
and initiated by an M code. The probe is turned off via an RF
signal or the internal timer.
Spin-on The probe is turned on via an internal centrifugal switch. The
probe is turned off via the centrifugal switch or the internal
timer.
Switch-on The probe is turned on and off via a switch incorporated
into the shank, activated when the probe is loaded into the
spindle.
