Collision Tolerance

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

The Collision Detection module in AVAIL/NT does not work unless there is an OPENGL (shaded) view on the screen.

Collision Detection (CD) in PC-DMIS is designed to detect collisions between the probe and CAD surfaces.

Collision tolerances are specified in the Collision Tolerances dialog box. This option can be accessed by clicking on the Tolerances button in the Probe Utilities dialog box.
