Changing from SP25 to TP20

Just as the title says, I am wanting to swap from our current setup to the TP20.

This morning I removed the SP25 scanning setup and placed on the TP20. After I did this, I was unable to get the CMM to move. Spoke to Renishaw and they said I need blanks to go on the end of the multiwire on the probe head? I'm not sure what I am needing to do.

Equipment used currently - PH10QM/SP25M/SP25-2 = PHC10-2 Probe Head Controller. PCDMIS 2020R1

Any input would be appreciated.

  • Do you have to restart pcdmis to do this? OR change any settings? I did exactly what you described and the CMM shuts down immediately. Machine start via controller, hit play and then shuts back off.



    I was able to get the CMM to accept that it was on there and move, but now it's not registering any hits. Did I miss something?

    I'm currently trying to calibrate the 1st probe but when I touch the sphere.... nothing.
