You could test your touch sensor by activating it manually well before crashing into your printbed. If your SV01-Pro does not recognize it properly you’ll need to check wiring & connectors of your CR-Touch sensor.  
Connecting your SV01-Pro via USB to a host like Pronterface (aka Printrun) would allow manual testing using M280 g-code commands. [It is identical to testing a BLTouch as described here beginning from Step 2.](https://github.com/MarlinFirmware/Marlin/issues/6756#issuecomment-301854300)

From what is visible, it didn’t look like the probe hit the bed.  
To confirm, could you take a picture of the print head from the front with the probe extended?  
In the video, it didn’t look like the probe touched the bed so a picture would help.  
I don’t own this printer so I don’t know how to lower the probe but, if you’ve tried everything from the post above and it didn’t work, try to lowering the probe.
