Video Inspection Software User’s Guide
Playing a Program Programs, in the form of measurement, tolerance and other software operations are played as a sequence of program steps. When a saved part is opened, the Feature List will become populated with features that were stored in the part file the last time the file was used and either: • A tabbed database of measurement results will be shown for a program that has been run to measure features OR • The original program feature data will be displayed for a program that was never run to measure features
Program previously played to measure features Tabbed database of many run results shown
Program never played to measure features Report shows only original programming measurements
Playing Programs with Permanent Fixtures (CNC only) When programs with permanent fixturing are loaded to a CNC system, the program will execute immediately after the user confirms that stage movements are safe by responding to the CNC prompt message. The program run will fill the Feature List with fresh measurement data.
NOTE Permanent fixturing is designated for a part program in the edit mode and is discussed later in this section.
Playing Programs with a Temporary or no Fixture The choice between temporary fixturing and no fixturing is made by responding to a user prompt that appears when the user plays the loaded program. The prompt asks if the part is in the same location as the last run. To play a part with temporary or no fixture: 1 Press Yes if the fixture is temporary. OR 2 Press No if there is no fixture • No fixture: The user must register each part before measuring • Temporary fixture: When the user runs the program, the system prompts the user to determine if the same part registration can be used again. If the part will be in the same location, the system will run the program without requiring a new part registration. If the part location is different, the system will require a new registration. 3 Follow the red arrow into green circle and part view guidance to perform measurements.
