The Profiles section of the Laser Data Collection Settings dialog box allows you to select from a list of pre-configured scan profiles. You can also create your own scan profiles.
The pre-configured scan profiles that come with PC-DMIS are:
Profile |
Description |
Settings |
|
Metric |
Standard |
||
Standard Resolution |
You can use this profile to scan parts with details 1 mm or larger. |
|
|
Fine Resolution |
You can use this profile to scan parts with details 1 mm or smaller. |
|
|
Very Fine Resolution |
You can use this profile to scan parts with details 0.5 mm or smaller. |

PC-DMIS stores the scan profiles in the "C:/Users/<user_name>/AppData/Local/Hexagon/PC-DMIS/<version>/ScanningProfiles" folder, where:
<user_name> is the name of the user logged onto the computer running the PC-DMIS application
<version> is the version of the installed PC-DMIS application.
The names of the pre-configured profiles are:
SP#01-COP - Standard Resolution.scanprof
SP#02-COP - Fine Resolution.scanprof
SP#03-COP - Very Fine Resolution.scanprof
You cannot change the configurations of the pre-configured profiles. If you do make a change, PC-DMIS renames the profile to "Custom(n)", where "(n)" represents a numerical index value that updates for each new custom profile PC-DMIS creates. For example, the software names the first custom profile created "Custom1", the second one created "Custom2", and so forth. You can click inside the profile name box and edit the name of any custom profile.
If you open a measurement routine from an earlier version of PC-DMIS, but the Data Collection settings do not match any of the existing profiles, the software automatically creates a new custom profile with those settings.
PC-DMIS uses the last-used profile for any new measurement routine.
You can click the Add button
to make a copy of the current profile. You can then rename it and make
any changes to the profile's configuration. Click the Delete
button 
to delete the current profile.
