A more elegant solution based on the same principle if you need a continuous track would be to generate a probe hit signal when the the current position has moved more than XX units from the previous position. That way you don't generate uneeded points when standing still/moving slowly and they won't be too coarse when moving quickly. Something like that should be implementable in HAL, right? (Some variables for the last recorded position, compared with the current position and some logic elements).
