Consider a basic rotation in the Manual
Operation mode: MP6166

Set MP 6166 = 1 for the TNC to consider an active basic rotation

during the probing process (the workpiece is approached along an

angular path if required) to ensure that the measuring accuracy for

probing individual positions is also increased in Setup mode.

Multiple measurements: MP6170

To increase measuring certainty, the TNC can run each probing

process up to three times in sequence. If the measured position

values differ too greatly, the TNC outputs an error message (the limit

value is defined in MP6171). With multiple measurements, it is

possible to detect random errors, e.g. from contamination.
If the measured values lie within the confidence interval, the TNC

saves the mean value of the measured positions.

Confidence interval for multiple measurements:
MP6171

In MP6171 you store the value by which the results may differ when

you make multiple measurements. If the difference in the measured

values exceeds the value in MP6171, the TNC outputs an error

message.

This feature is not active during the following functions in

the Manual Operation mode:
