The Probe Toolbox is not specific to PC-DMIS Vision, but is part of the standard PC-DMIS software. This toolbox presents tabs and information relative to the type of probe currently being used. When a vision probe is active, the Probe Toolbox contains various Vision probe parameters used to acquire the data points needed by measurement routines.
Your LMS license or portlock must be programmed with the Vision option and a valid Vision Probe Type selected. Also, you must be working with a supported Vision probe in order to access the various PC-DMIS Vision related tabs.
The Probe Toolbox works in conjunction with the Auto Feature dialog box to define the parameters by which auto features are measured. Functionality, such as probe movement, magnification, illumination, focus, and gage measurement can be performed independently from auto feature creation.
The View | Other Windows | Probe Toolbox menu option displays the Probe Toolbox.
