Fundamentals
Recording the results of measurement
For all cycles in which you automatically measure workpieces (with
the exception of Cycles 0 and 1), you can have the TNC record the
measurement results. In the respective probing cycle you can define
if the TNC is to
 Save the measuring log to a file
 Interrupt the program run and display the measuring log on the
screen
 Create no measuring log
If you want to save the measuring log as a file, the TNC, by default,
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 via the data
interface. 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").
All measured values listed in the log file are referenced to
the datum 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 3-D 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.
