Chapter 4:
Quick Start Demonstration
This chapter demonstrates the operation of the QC-300 system. The demonstration is provided as a means
of quickly helping experienced operators to use the system. This demonstration will be most helpful if you
perform the measurements and other activities as you follow along.
The demonstration will use the Metronics QC Quickie slide to create a part skew and datum, measure a
part feature, apply a few tolerances, print a tolerance report and save all these activities as a program that
can be recalled and run again later.
When the program is run on a manual system, the series
of required points will be indicated by a green arrow
that moves over the part outline in the Part View win-
dow. The user need only probe locations indicated by
the arrow to complete measurements.
The demonstration will show measurements being
performed on a manual stage using a manual crosshair
probe. However, the same measurements could also be
performed using optional optical edge detection.
Detailed information regarding datuming and measuring is contained in Chapter 6: Measuring. Informa-
tion regarding tolerancing is contained in Chapter 7: Tolerancing. Report printing is discussed in Chapter
9: Communication. Information regarding programming is contained in Chapter 8: Programming.
The QC Quickie slide is shipped with each system
