Use Wrist Map If Available check box

(This item pertains to the Probe Utilities dialog box, accessible through Insert | Hardware Definition | Probe.)

The Use Wrist Map If Available check box determines whether or not PC-DMIS uses a wrist map (also known as an "error map") file when calibrating AB angle tips on probe configurations that use an indexable wrist. If you select this check box, PC-DMIS will search for the wrist map file (a file named abcomp.dat) on your computer, and if found, will compensate for the wrist's error data when calibrating the AB angle tips.

For information on creating the wrist map file, see the "Calculate Error Map" topic from the "Using a Wrist Device" appendix.
