The UCC MMI-2 controller provides a USB based interface for manual CMMs
UCC MMI-2Interfaces to the Renishaw digital range of scale readheads, or electrically compatible OEM versions, and to TP20 or similar touch-trigger probes
Controls the collection of scales data, and latches the scales' positions when a TTP event is detected
Supports limited 24 V machine IO signalling, and can interface to a manual head if required
