Conducting measurements

Once a part number is selected and a reference is established,
measurements can be conducted.

Measurements can:

„

Be conducted manually, completely under the control of the
operator

„

Follow a predetermined sequence of steps shown on the screen

„

Be based on dynamic samples of changing input data

„

Be semi-automated to increase the throughput of repetitive
measurements

Typically a setup person will configure the ND 2100G for operation in
the Setup screens and then will construct formulas defining
dimensions in the Formula screens described in Chapter 2:
Installation, Setup and Specifications.

Once the ND 2100G is configured and dimension formulas are
constructed, measurement instructions are usually given to the
operator that reflect the specific measurement requirements and gage
equipment setup. Instructions provided in this guide are generic and
meant to be used as guidelines when applying the ND 2100G to
specific measuring applications.

Manual measurements

Manual measurements are performed completely under the control of
an operator. Measurement results can be displayed as current values,
in graphs or in data tables using the screens described earlier in this
chapter. Please refer to the descriptions of Views on page 28.

Measurements can also be printed or transmitted to a computer. The
data printed or transmitted are specified and formatted in the setup
screens described in Chapter 2: Installation, Setup and Specifications.
