Step 7 - Take the Third Manual Hit

You will take the third manual hit for the TESASTAR-PR / HR-P Probe Changer on the top surface to the right of the last port. Once you complete the second manual hit, the following message box appears:

PC-DMIS Message

Please take a hit on top on the silver surface to the right of port 6.

After completing this hit, DCC calibration will begin

Prompt for the third manual hit on the top to the right of the last port

Use your machine's jog box to measure the third hit on the top surface to the right of the last port.

WARNING: When you do this, the machine moves. To avoid injury, stay clear of the machine. To avoid hardware damage, run the machine at a slower speed.

After it takes this hit on the back of the last port, PC-DMIS drives in DCC mode and takes some additional measurements. It works backwards from the last port towards the first port. When this is complete, the Calibrate tab appears.

The next step is to review the calibration results after DCC calibration is complete.
