Safety
Information to the user
The Primo Radio Part Setter and the Radio 3D Tool
Setter are both supplied with one 3 Volt CR2
Lithium Manganese battery each. 3.6 Volt ½ AA
Lithium Thionyl Chloride batteries may also be
used (see section 4.2).
Lithium batteries must be approved to IEC 62133.
Please dispose of the batteries on accordance with
your local environmental laws once the charge has
depleted. Do not attempt to recharge these
batteries.
Please ensure replacement batteries are fitted in
accordance with the instructions in this manual
and as indicated on the product. For specific
battery operating, safety and disposal guidelines
please refer to the battery manufacturer’s
literature.
CAUTIONS:
• Do not leave dead batteries in the
equipment.
• Do not allow coolant or debris to enter
the battery compartment.
• When changing the battery check that the
battery polarity is correct.
• Do not store batteries in direct sunlight or
rain.
• Avoid forced discharge of the batteries.
• Do not short-circuit the batteries.
• Do not disassemble, pierce, deform or
apply excessive pressure to the batteries.
• Do not swallow the batteries.
• Keep the batteries out of the reach of
children.
• Do not get batteries wet.
• If a battery is damaged, make sure to
exercise caution when handling it.
• Never dispose of batteries in fire.
NOTES:
Always ensure that the gasket and mating surfaces
are clean and free from dirt before reassembly.
After removing the old battery, wait more than 5
seconds before inserting the new battery.
If a dead battery is inadvertently inserted into the
probe then the LEDs will remain a constant red.
Please ensure that you comply with international
and national battery transport regulations when
transporting batteries or the products; Lithium
batteries are classified as dangerous goods and
strict controls apply on their shipment by air. If
you should need to return your Primo Radio Part
Setter or Radio 3D Tool Setter to Renishaw for any
reason, do not return any batteries to reduce
shipment delays.
In all applications involving the use of machine
tools eye protection is recommended.
The Primo Radio 3D Tool Setter has a glass window
around it. Handle with care if broken to avoid
injury.
Information to the machine
supplier/installer
It is the machine supplier's responsibility to ensure
that the user is made aware of any hazards
involved in operation, including those mentioned
in Renishaw product literature, and to ensure that
adequate guards and safety interlocks are
provided.
Under certain circumstances, the probe signal may
falsely indicate a probe seated condition. Do not
rely on the probe signals to halt the movement of
the machine and always programme an over travel
distance stop into the machining programme.

Primo installation guide
Information to the equipment
installer
All Renishaw equipment is designed to comply
with the relevant EC and FCC regulatory
requirements. It is the responsibility of the
equipment installer to ensure that the following
Before you
guidelines are adhered to, in order for the product
to function in accordance with these regulations:
• Any interface must be installed in a
position away from any potential sources
of electrical noise, i.e. power
transformers, servo drives etc.
• All ground connections should be
connected to the machine 'star point' (the
'star point' is a single point return for all
equipment ground and screen cables).
Failure to adhere to this can cause a
potential difference between grounds.
• All screens must be connected as outlined
in the user instructions.
• Cables must not be routed alongside high
current sources (i.e. motor power supply
cables etc), or be near high speed data
lines.
• Cable lengths should always be kept to a
minimum.
Equipment operation
If the equipment is used in a way not specified by
the manufacturer, the protection provided by the
equipment may be impaired.

Primo Radio Part Setter and Radio 3D Tool
2.1
Introduction
Credit
When used within a system:
• The Radio Part Setter enables part setup
and inspection on machining centres.
• The Radio 3D Tool Setter enables broken
tool detection and tool setting
(length/diameter).
Primo Radio Part Setter and Radio 3D Tool Setter;
The Primo system requires credit to function;
• Credit is in the form of a Primo credit
token.
• This is inserted into the Radio Part Setter
which then transfers the credit to the
Primo Interface. Section 5.29.
• Deliver interference-tolerant radio
transmission through the use of the FHSS
(Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum).
o Allows multiple systems to work
in the same machine shop
without interference.
o Using radio transmission enables
non line-of-sight operation.
Getting started
The Primo Radio Part Setter and Radio 3D Tool
Setter have LEDs to provide visual indication of
their status as well as overall system status.
• See section 5.21 for an LED guide.
Modes of operation
Standby mode The equipment is waiting
for a switch on signal and
the Interface is waiting to
send a switch on signal
after receiving a signal
from the machine tool.
Operational mode Activated by a switch on
signal from the Interface
or a Spin. The equipment
is ready for use.
Acquisition mode Used to configure the
partnering of the Primo
Radio Part Setter and
Radio 3D Tool Setter with
the Interface. The
acquisition method is
described in section 5.28.
Credit transfer mode

When the Primo Radio Part Setter or 3D
Tool Setter are in standby and the Primo
Interface is powered off or out of range,
the equipment enters hibernation; a low

sent every 30 seconds when hibernation
is activated.

When the filter is enabled a constant 10 ms filter
delay is introduced to the equipment output.
• It may be necessary to reduce the Radio
Part Setters approach speed to allow for
the increased stylus overtravel during the
extended time delay.
Re-calibration
If settings are changed via the Interface switches,
it is vital that the equipment is re-calibrated; See
sections 5.17 – 5.20.
Acquisition mode
The partnering of the Primo Radio Part Setter or
Radio 3D Tool Setter and the Interface described in
section 5.28.
NOTE:
To enter the Interface into acquisition mode,
Renikey or a power cycle will need to be used.
Locate the Renikey manual before starting the
partnership process. See 3.1.
Partnering is required during initial system set up
or if the Radio Part Setter turn on method had
changed.
• Partnering will not be lost by
reconfiguration of the equipment settings
or when changing batteries.
• Partnering can take place anywhere
within the performance envelope
(section 5.2).

refer to www.renishaw.com.
Note:
If the Primo System is using a Primo Upgrade
Credit Token and the Primo Interface is returned
to Renishaw then the Primo Upgrade Credit
Token must be returned with the interface for
identification purposes.

Interface inputs
Machine start inputs:
‘Machine start’ is configurable as a level or pulsed
signal.
12 to 30 Vdc
The basics -
See section 5.14 for the full wiring diagram.
When input is active probe is switched
on.
12 to 30 Vdc
Part Setter toggles from being
switched on/off. Minimum pulse width
is 10 ms.
Interface outputs
There are four SSR outputs:
• Probe status 1
• Probe status 2
• Error
• Low battery/credit
All outputs can be inverted by using switches SW1
and SW2 (see section 3.5 for more info).
Note:
The term ‘Probe Status’ refers to the
measurement hardware in the system
interacting with the interface and can
therefore refer to the Primo Radio Part
Setter and the Primo Radio 3D Tool
Setter.
SSR outputs specifications:
• Maximum ‘on’ resistance = 25 ohm
• Maximum load voltage = 30 V
• Maximum load current = 100 mA

Signal delays:
1. Transmission delay Probe trigger to output change of state = 10 ms ± 10 µs without enhanced
trigger filter
2. Start delay Time from initiation to start of signal to valid signal transmission = 1 s max
