RP1/RP2 ELECTRICAL GROUNDING
ELECTRICAL GROUNDING
Two methods of EMI protection are possible with the RP1/RP2 probe. The method of protection
chosen will depend on the machine wiring with due consideration to ground loops.
1. Grounding via the probe housing (i.e. by the OEM mounting arrangement), where the probe
Housings electrically bonded to the machine earth.
2. Grounding via a cable sheild supplied by the installer, where the probe housing is not electrically
bonded to the machine earth.
Grounding is achieved through the probe mounting screws. Screen should NOT be terminated at the probe.
Grounding is achieved: By terminating the screen at the M2 tapped hole in the rear of the RP1,
or by terminating the screen at the M2 countersunk screw of the RP2.
1-8
The MI 8 interface unit processes probe signals and converts these signals into a voltage-free solid state relay
(SSR) output, for transmission to the CNC machine control. The MI 8 is fully described in the MI 8 user’s guide,
