Patent ID: 7395182

Claim:
A system for checking the position and/or the dimensions of mechanical pieces, comprising: a checking probe with detecting devices, power supply devices, a logic unit, memory devices adapted for storing values of at least one operation parameter of the checking probe, and a remote transceiver unit for wireless transmission and reception of signals, a base transceiver unit for the wireless transmission and reception of the signals to and from said remote transceiver unit, a display device adapted for displaying, on the basis of signals received from the remote transceiver unit, information regarding said at least one operation parameter and an associated value, and a manually-operated control device, connected to the base transceiver unit and adapted for generating, upon an operator's manual control, control signals and for transmitting said control signals by means of the base transceiver unit, said logic unit of the checking probe being adapted for selecting the value of said at least one operation parameter in response to the control signals received by means of the remote transceiver unit and to provide signals indicative of said at least one operation parameter and of the associated value, wherein the logic unit is adapted to provide, according to a coded sequence and in response to the received control signals, signals indicative of current selectable values of said at least one operation parameter, the display device displaying in sequence said current selectable values of said at least one operation parameter, said control signals being adapted to send to the logic unit either an updating control or a confirmation control to control the updating or the confirmation of the current selectable value displayed on the display device.
