Adaptive Feed & Depth Parameters
Chapter 32
32-12
When probe deflection is less then the value entered for this parameter, the
control ignores the probe deflection.
When probe deflection is greater than or equal to the value entered for this
parameter, the control considers the probe tripped. Any deflection that has
occurred, up until the probe trip is recognized, is added as probe deflection
from the point at which the probe tripped.

Range
0 to 2540 mm
Notes
This parameter applies to the adaptive depth axis.
Excessively large values for this trigger tolerance can decrease your axis
speed when searching for the part surface with the adaptive depth probe.
The control will attempt to keep the axis speed slow enough to leave
enough time to decelerate after the probe has tripped to reach final
position. For example if your probe tolerance for this parameter was
20mm and you programmed a G26 integrand amount of 21mm, this move
can be very slow since the axis only has 1 mm within which to decelerate
once the probe trips.
Function
This parameter is used with the adaptive depth feature. Refer to your
9/Series Mill Operation and Programming Manual for details on this
feature. This parameter is only available on mill control types.
Most adaptive depth probes have a travel limit that is less than the travel
limits of the axis that is positioning the probe. This parameter is used to
define the maximum amount of probe deflection allowed. It is an
incremental value that is relative to where you configure your probe zero
point.
