Program Mode

Select Operation | Graphic Display Window | Change Screen Mode | Program to learn and edit measurement routines using CAD data from IGES files.

You can use Program mode to create measured features from a wireframe or surface CAD model. While in Program mode, you take hits on the model with an animated probe simulating taking hits with the CMM in Guess mode. This capability is available in either the Offline or Online mode of PC-DMIS.

For more information on how to use graphics to create measurement routines, refer to the "Working in Offline Mode" appendix.
