Chapter 6 System Setup
Including light adjustments in programs
Video edge detection measurements typically include adjustments of lighting to
optimize the contrast of different feature images. These light adjustments can
be recorded in the part program.
Check the Include a light step... box to
include VED light adjustments in part
programs.
Including probe qualifications in programs
Probe qualifications conducted before or during part measurements can be in-
cluded in a part program. This feature is helpful when an application requires
probe qualification prior to each series of part feature measurements.
Check the Record an automatically... box
to include probe qualification in pro-
grams.
Specifying vector probing
During program execution, the touch probe moves in a straight-line from the
last probe contact point or GO TO point, along the machine axis taken when
the program was recorded. Under these circumstances, the probe does not nec-
essarily make rightangle contact with the target surface.
Without vector probing
