Notes on log data

Error outputs

In the Test mode (Q406=0) the TNC outputs the accuracy that can be

attained by optimization and/or the accuracies attained through

optimization (Modes 1 and 2).

If the angular position of a rotary axis was calculated, the measured

data is also shown in the log.

Dispersion (standard deviation)

In the log, 'dispersion', a term from statistics, is used as a measure

of accuracy. Measured dispersion (measured standard deviation)

means that 68.3 % of the actually measured spatial errors are within

the specified range (+/–). Optimized dispersion (optimized

standard deviation) means that 68.3% of the spatial errors to be

expected after the correction of the kinematics are within the

specified range (+/–).

Evaluation of measuring points

The valuation numbers are a measure of the quality of the

measuring positions with respect to the changeable transformations

of the kinematics model. The higher the valuation number, the

greater the benefit from optimization by the TNC. The valuation of

any rotary axis should not fall below a value of 2. Values greater than

or equal to 4 are desirable If the valuation numbers are too small,

increase the measurement range of the rotary axis, or the number

of measuring points.

If the valuation numbers are too small, increase the

measurement range of the rotary axis, or the number of

measuring points. If these measures do not improve the

valuation number, this might be due to an incorrect

kinematics description. If necessary, inform your service

agency.
