MI 8 interface
The MI 8 provides voltage free solid state relay
(SSR) output, configurable for either normally
open (NO) or normally closed (NC).
An inhibit input enables an optical transmission
type inspection probe and interface to be used,
on the same machine input as the TS20.
MI 8-4 interface
Where an inspection probe with optical
transmission and an MI 12 interface,
are used on the same machine as the TS20,
the MI 8-4 interface is recommended.

The signal conditioning module
is NOT used with arrangement
The MI 8-4 interface accepts the probe
output signal from the MI 12 interface.
The user can then select between
inspection or tool setting probe outputs
by selecting an 'M' code.
MI 5 interface
Where an inspection probe with inductive
transmission is used on the same machine
as the TS20, a single MI 5 interface is
recommended, as it can accept both
the inspection probe (inductive) and TS20
tool setting probe (hard wired) inputs.
