Recording the results of measurement
For all cycles in which you automatically measure workpieces (with
the exception of Cycles 0 and 1), the TNC records the results. As
standard procedure the TNC saves the measuring log as an ASCII file
in the directory from which you run the measuring program. As an
alternative you can also send the measuring log directly to a printer or
transfer it to a PC. To do this, set the print function (in the interface
configuration menu) to RS232:\ (see also the User's Manual under
"MOD Functions, Setting Up the Data Interface").
Example: Measuring log for touch probe cycle 423:
*** Measuring Log for Probing Cycle 421 Hole Measuring ***

***************** End of measuring log *****************
All measured values listed in the log file are referenced to
the datum that is active during the respective cycle you are
running. In addition, the coordinate system may have been
rotated in the plane or the plane may have been tilted by
using 3D-ROT. In this case, the TNC converts the
measuring results to the respective active coordinate
system.
Use the HEIDENHAIN data transfer software TNCremo if
you wish to output the measuring log via the data
interface.
