Torque/Force Threshold

Threshold value for the actual motor torque value. If the torque exceeds this value during evaluation, this serves as an indicator that a hard stop has been detected. The value #Ignore disables this threshold.

Velocity Threshold

Threshold value for the actual axis velocity during evaluation. The power/torque threshold is evaluated only if the actual velocity is below this threshold value. The value #Ignore disables this threshold.

Lag Threshold

Threshold value for the position lag. If the actual position lag exceeds this value during evaluation, this serves as an indicator that a hard stop has been detected. The value #Ignore disables this threshold.

Init Parameter 1:

Disabling all thresholds

If all thresholds are disabled, the module immediately reports a detected event. In the case of homing, this is instantly recognized as the encoder having reached the end stop.

  • Enter at least a real number for the torque/force threshold or position lag threshold to enable hard stop detection.
Init Parameter 2:

Behavior of an accelerating axis with a velocity threshold

If, for example, the axis accelerates from a standstill and the touch probe module's evaluation is already active, the axis's velocity may still be below the set threshold value. Depending on the other threshold values, this may cause the touch probe module to report a detected event. In the case of homing, this can be detected as reaching the end stop.

  • If necessary, start an axis movement before activating the touch probe unit.
