This registry entry is not used.
This registry entry defines the maximum Y limit for the master side of the fixture volume. To determine this location, move the ram to the maximum Y position of the fixture volume. Be careful not to completely retract the arm since that will probably allow the machine to pull the column off of the plate. Use the gripper location as a guide. The "Y" coordinate is the value you should use for the MasterPlateBoundsYMax setting.
If the registry entries that have a default of –999999.0 remain at that value, PC-DMIS will use the machine limits returned from the controller.
Entry Name: SlavePlateBoundsYMax
Entry Type: Real number that specifies the maximum Y location. The default value is -999999.
If you place a column too close to the edge of the plate, it may not be able to measure the column sphere during placement iterations because the probe's head will need to retract even further to measure the column.
