Recording measured values from the touch probe
cycles
Refer to your machine manual.
The control must be specially prepared by the machine

After executing the respective touch-probe cycle, the control writes
the measured values to the TCHPRMAN.html file.

Operating notes:
If you run several touch probes cycles in a row, the
control stores the measured values below each
other.
