(This item pertains to the Probe Utilities dialog box, accessible through Insert | Hardware Definition | Probe.)
The User Defined Calibration Order check box is used to determine the order PC-DMIS takes to measure selected tips.
If you select this check box, PC-DMIS measures the tips in the order defined by the user when marking the tips for calibration in the Active Tip List. (See "Active Tip List") If no tips are chosen, PC-DMIS uses the I, J, K vectors defined in the Search I, J, K boxes in the Edit Tool or Add Tool dialog boxes to determine the most efficient order to measure all the tips.
If you do not select this check box, PC-DMIS measures the tips in an order that it determines to be the most efficient. When this happens, PC-DMIS ignores the order that was given to selected tips in the Active Tip List. PC-DMIS also uses the calibration tool vector to determine the most efficient order to measure.
