Step 7 - Take Manual Hits on the Top of Each Port
For the LSPX1C / HR-X (HR-X1-P) Probe Changer, after you complete the first two manual hits on the front of the first and last ports, PC-DMIS prompts you to take a hit on the top left side of each port. This starts with the first port. The hit should be near the front of the port but far enough back to avoid any tapered corner.
The set of hits establishes the location of each port. When you are done taking hits, the system goes into DCC mode and measures a series of hits required to accurately locate and orient the rack. It works from the last port toward the first port.
The prompt for the hit on the top surface of port 1 is:
Please take a hit on the top surface on the left side of port 1. It should be taken near the front but far enough back to be behind any tapered corner.

When you are ready to take the first measurement, click OK.
Use your machine's jog box to measure a hit on the top left surface of each port, as shown below:

Once you have taken a manual hit on the top of the port, PC-DMIS informs you that DCC measurement is about to begin:
Please remove any stylus holders from the ports and then click OK.
When you click OK the DCC measurement will begin.
