The Fixturing Setup dialog box (Edit | Preferences | Fixturing or press F12) allows you to define certain PC-DMIS parameters for your Flexible Fixturing system.
The initial setup of your Flexible Fixturing system is done through the Fixturing System Setup program (see "Using Fixturing System Setup" for more information on the initial setup). To add or remove components of your Flexible Fixturing system, you must use the Fixturing System Setup program. The Fixturing Setup dialog box in PC-DMIS allows you to edit the parameters for the components that you previously created.
You can use the tabs in this dialog box to do the following tasks:
Specify the volume definition for each machine arm (Volume Definition tab)
Define the location of the arm and arm gripper (Mount Points tab)
Change your fixturing display options (Display Options tab)
Define the hole pattern for mounting columns (Hole Pattern Setup Tab)
The Fixturing Setup button in the Fixturing Setup dialog box opens the Fixturing System Setup program. You can use this program in the initial setup of your Flexible Fixturing system. For more information, see the "Using Fixturing System Setup" topic.
