This section describes the process of creating alignments using the Vision tab in PC-DMIS Vision. This is commonly used when you are measuring online but have not imported CAD. Creating both Manual (rough) and DCC (refined) alignments as outlined below will help ensure the accuracy of your alignment. This two-step alignment process is not required but is recommended.
If you are working on a manual machine, you can take advantage of this two-step alignment approach by using the AutoShutter feature to assist you. For information on the AutoShutter feature, see "Setting up the Live View".
Complete the following steps to create an alignment using the Live View:
This example uses the 3 2 1 Alignment Wizard to show how to implement this tool. The "CAD View Alignments" example uses the classic Alignment Utilities dialog box.
