NON-REPEATABLE PROBES (ABSOLUTE 71 SERIES)
Threaded probes
Some probes present the particularity not to be repeatable:
•
Probe kit: the probe can be dismounted, to change the length, or configuration
•
Thread probe.
Such probes, as they are assembled or mounted through a screw, are not repeatable.
It means that they must be realigned each time they are used. To prevent the operator to forget to realign,
these types of probes are programmed as “Non-repeatable” probes and each time they are plugged on the
arm, RDS asked for realignment:
•
For the non-repeatable probes, specific parameters are automatically displayed in Control Panel probe
tab:

probe is detected
(default
– recommended): each time a non-repeatable probe is connected on
the arm, RDS remind the user to do a probe Alignment.
Keep quiet
RDS will skip the warning:
Until another probe is
detected
If the probe is dismounted from the arm, then
mounted again, no message will appear when
mounting again the same probe, even if it is a non-
repeatable probe.
If another probe is mounted, then RDS will warn
again when the non-repeatable probe will be
mounted.

Even if another probe is mounted, then the non-
repeatable probe again, RDS will not warn.
Only once another arm is connected, then again, the
