Profile3D Pass Only option
The Pass Only option on the Profile3D Measure window specifies that
the fitting algorithm terminates the fitting process when it finds a fit
that is within all specified surface tolerances. If the Pass Only option
is checked, and a tolerance has been specified for every surface on
which points have been probed, then the fitting algorithm will
terminate as soon as it finds a fit in which all probed points pass their
tolerance. If no such fit can be found then the fitting algorithm will
continue the process of fitting until it either finds the best fit it can or
none is found.
The Pass Only option is used to improve performance in cases where
time is a more important factor than accuracy. This is to be used when
a tolerance pass/fail is all that is required and not the exact amount of
the error. The amount of performance improvement varies depending
on how loose the tolerance is, and how close the part is to its nominal
form. The fitting of a part that fails its tolerance will not have any
performance improvement by using the Pass Only option.
