Probing on Rapidpath systems

By default, all our 2050 RP knee mill kits ship configured for normally open(Rising edge) probes .

 Most probes and tool setters are rising edge for accuracy reasons, however there are a few out there that are still NC. 

For an NC circuit probe we need to change a parameter in the CTB drive. See image below. 

This shows that on(1) is falling edge(NC) and off(0) is rising edge(NO). Use a calculator set to bianary to figure out what the value should be. 

For example, to set probe 1 to NO and probe 2 to NC we would configure the calculator like so: 

This gives us the value to write to the drive, 256.
