The stylus of a TS three-dimensional touch trigger probe is deflected upon contact with a workpiece surface. This releases a trigger signal in the TS that is transmitted to the control either through a cable (TS 220 and TS 230) or as an infrared light signal (TS 7xx, TS 6xx, TS 4xx). The control simultaneously saves the actual position values as measured by the machine axis encoders, and uses this information for further processing.
