Measure Profile window functions
The Measure Profile window contains functions for:
•
Allowing (or prohibiting) data shifts during profile fit analyses
•
Assigning measurement tolerances
•
Entering part data
•
Importing part data from the Features template
•
Removing the last point data entered
•
Initiating a fit analysis
•
Cancelling a fit measurement
•
Resetting the fit results and restoring data points
•
Selecting specific data
•
Accessing the Measure Profile menu
•
Completing the profile measurement
Allowing (or prohibiting) data shifts during profile fit analyses
The fit algorithm shifts the data cloud obtained from measurements in the
Video window in the Cartesian and polar coordinate systems to achieve the
best fit between the data and the nominal part profile.
Maximum degrees of freedom are given to the fit algorithm by checking the
Allow X, Allow Y and Allow a boxes across the bottom of the window. Clear-
ing a box prohibits data cloud movement in the indicated orientation.
Assigning measurement tolerances
Bilateral or unilateral tolerances can be assigned to profile measurements.
Bilateral tolerances can be equal and unequal. Click the Tolerance button to
display the tolerance zone dialog box.
