Safety
CAUTION: Before unpacking and installing the REVO system, the user should carefully read the safety instructions below and
ensure that they are followed at all times by all operators.
The RSP3 range of probes is only to be used with the Renishaw REVO head.
Operators must be trained in the use and application of the REVO system and accompanying products, in the context of the
machine it is fitted to, before being allowed to operate that machine.
Permanent magnets are used in some components of the REVO system and associated products. It is important to keep them away
from items which may be affected by magnetic fields, e.g. data storage systems, pacemakers and watches etc.
RSP3 LED emissions
The RSP3 range of scanning probes incorporate embedded high power LED sources and should not be used in the event of serious damage
to, or rupture of, any part of the RSP3. In such cases IMMEDIATELY disconnect the power source, remove and do not attempt to re-use the
parts. Contact your supplier for advice.
RCP TC-2 and RCP TC-3
The method of interrupting power is to disconnect the power cable or turn off the supply.

Warnings
Beware of unexpected movement. The user should remain outside of the full working envelope of probe head and stylus. The
machine supplier should ensure the user is aware of the full working envelope of the system.
In all applications involving the use of machine tools or CMMs, eye protection is recommended.
It is the machine supplier's responsibility to ensure that the user is made aware of any hazards involved in operation, including those
mentioned in Renishaw product documentation, and to ensure that adequate guards and safety interlocks are provided.
Refer to the machine supplier's operating instructions.
The system components contain no user serviceable parts, with the exception of RCP TC-2, RCP TC-3, RCP2 and FCR25. No attempt should be
made to disassemble any part of the product. In the event of a problem please contact your supplier for assistance.
Under certain circumstances the probe signal may falsely indicate a probe-seated condition. Do not rely on probe signals to stop machine
movement.
Probe trigger override will prevent machine backing off in the event of a probe collision.
The probe joints are designed to release the probe and / or the stylus holder in the event of a crash.
This equipment is not suitable for use in a potentially explosive atmosphere.
Pinch hazards exist between parts. Do not hold the probe or probe head during movements.
It is essential for continued safety that all fuses are replaced by the correct type and rating.
REVO must be transported in Renishaw supplied packaging.
The cables must meet Renishaw specifications. Incorrect cabling could cause damage to the equipment.

System description
The RSP3 range of probes gives REVO users the ability to carry cranked stylus arrangements and enhanced capability for carrying long styli.
The RSP3-1 / 2 / 3 / 4 probes can be used for both 3D-scanning (X, Y, Z) and touch-trigger applications. They enable accurate scanning
measurement with effective stylus lengths ranging from 20 mm - 394 mm. The RSP3-6 probe, on the other hand, provides REVO with
enhanced capability for carrying long cranked and straight styli. RSP3-6 can be used for 2D scanning and 3D touch-trigger applications. It
carries straight extensions up to 800 mm from REVO's A-axis centre of rotation, and cranked extensions up to 600 mm from REVO's A-axis
centre of rotation.
The RSP3 range uses 3-axis scanning with fixed REVO head angles during measurement. Each probe is designed to provide optimized
accuracy and contact force over a specified stylus range. Consequently, the RSH3 stylus holders are intended to fit only with their respective
RSP3 probe.
Design principles of the RSP3 scanning probes
RSP3 uses an optical transducer sensor and a pivoting motion system similar to that found in SP25M system.
The probe's pivoting motion system has two diaphragm springs. One of the RSP3 springs allows movement in all directions whilst the other
(pivot) spring is stiff in (probe) X and Y, but allows movement in Z. Its optical transducer sensor system has two infrared light emitting diodes
that project invisible infrared beams on mirrors mounted on the pivoting moving structure within the probe. The mirrors focus the beams
back onto two position sensitive devices (PSDs) which provide signal outputs in the three probe axes: P, Q, R (converted into X, Y, Z signals by
the calibration routine).
Unlike the SP25M, the RSP3's probe and module elements are built as one.
System components overview
RSP3-1 / 2 / 3 / 4
The RSP3-1 / 2 / 3 / 4 range of probes provide REVO with 3D-scanning (X, Y, Z) touch-trigger and crank stylus capabilities.
RSP3-6
The RSP3-6 probe provides REVO with enhanced capability for carrying long cranked and straight styli. RSP3-6 can be used for both 3D
touch-trigger and 2D scanning applications.
RSH3-1 / 2 / 3 / 4 stylus holders
The RSH3-1 / 2 / 3 / 4 stylus holders are designed to fit with their respective RSP3 probe. They enable accurate scanning measurements with
effective stylus lengths ranging from 20 mm - 394 mm.
The RSH3 range of stylus holders replace the SH25 range of stylus holders for use with REVO only. The SH25 range should still be used with
SP25M.

RSH3-6c-500 / 600 and RSH3-6-600 / 700 / 800 stylus holders
The RSH3-6 stylus holders for the RSP3-6 probe are suitable for applications requiring straight extensions up to 800 mm from REVO's A-axis
centre of rotation. The RSH3-6c stylus holders are suitable for applications requiring cranked extensions up to 600 mm from REVO's A-axis
centre of rotation.
RCP TC-2 and RCP TC-3
The thermally controlled RCP TC-2 and RCP TC-3 ports maintain stored probes at operating temperature. They are compatible with
Renishaw's MRS and MRS2 rack systems.
NOTE: RCP TC-3 is for use with RSP3-6 and SFP2 only.
RCP2
The RCP2 enables rapid and repeatable changing of RSH3-6 stylus holders. It is compatible with Renishaw's MRS and MRS2 rack systems.
FCR25 flexible change rack unit
Rapid and repeatable changing of the RSH3-1 / 2 / 3 / 4 stylus holders is possible via the FCR25 triple port change rack unit, which is
compatible with Renishaw's MRS and MRS2 rack systems.
FCR25 stand-off plate
The FCR25 stand-off plate should be used on all REVO installations to mount FCR25 ports to the MRS / MRS2 rack system.
PA25-RSH3 port adapter
PA25-RSH3 port adapters are required for automated changing of the RSH3-1 / 2 / 3 / 4 stylus holders into and out of the FCR25 rack. A
PA25-RSH3 port adapter is included in every RSH3 and RSP3 kit.
