positive logic, or No for negative logic.
Debounce time
Probe debounce time is the duration of uninterrupted probe contact with a surface required for a valid
probe input. Debounce time eliminates measurement inaccuracies caused by CMM machine vibration and
mechanical switch noise. The default 0.02 seconds of debounce time is adequate for most applications.
Increase the debounce time in 0.02 second increments to accommodate noisy environments. Enter the
debounce time into the Debounce time data field in seconds.
