Create a new measurement routine and, when prompted, define a new probe (Insert | Hardware Definition | Probe). Name it MYPROBE.PRB and specify in the Probe Utility dialog box the components according to your specific needs.
Import the Chorus qualification program. Use as your probe, the previously created MYPROBE.PRB file. PC-DMIS imports each SNSDEF statement and adds the corresponding TIP angles. Note that Chorus identifies each tip with the DMIS label that looks something like this: a tip with roll = 0 and pitch = 0 is named S(R000P000T1). PC-DMIS, names this as T1A0B0.
If in ChorusNT you used a self-calibrated probe, import into PC-DMIS a simple DMIS routine that contains the definition of the "Chief" probe. It needs to have the right label (the same used in the SNSLCT/S(label),90,90 for example) and Pitch and Roll equal to 0.
After you import the DMIS file, your MYPROBE.PRB probe file contains all the needed tips. In PC-DMIS these AB tip angles will show an asterisk symbol ‘*’ to indicate that they are not yet calibrated.
Calibrate the tips in one of the following ways:
Execute the measurement routine.
