Hi,
I would like to add a fix touch plate to my CNC to do tool measuring operation. I would like to generate probe event with this touch plate. I already have a touch probe and I just want to add the touch plate. I would like to connect the touch plate on the PMDX-122 on J3. The PMDX is set to have COM at ground (J1 at 2-3). I would like to generate probe event by putting pin 2 of J3 at the ground. I would like to connect J3 pin 2 to the copper plate (touch plate) and connect J3 COM to the tool. My question is : is it correct to connect J3 COM to the machine frame to get connection to the tool?
Thank you
