stop movement with probe input when not in use

Hi there,

I am currently using an IRC5 controller that uses a 3D probe connected with a digital input to execute a commands such as SearchL with the hope of datuming and measuring parts!

I was wondering if there was a way that I could safe guard the probe from potential damage through the use of stopping movement, restoring movement or any form of awareness from the robots perspective by a false signal by the probe when functions such as SearchL are being used?

My best guess for how I would achieve this would be by using some form of trap routine. However, my understanding of such functions are quite limited.

any advice would be greatly appreciated!

regards,
QD
