To create a vision Round Slot, follow these steps:

  1. For machines supporting DCC motion, select DCC Mode if you want to create and measure round slots in DCC mode.

  2. Select Auto Round Slot from the Auto Feature toolbar. You can also select the Insert | Feature | Auto | Round Slot menu option. This opens the Auto Feature (round slot) dialog box.

  1. With the Auto Feature dialog box open, select a round slot in one of two ways:

Click as close as possible to the CAD element to ensure PC-DMIS does not choose an incorrect element.

  1. PC-DMIS Vision automatically places the nominal data for the round slot into the Auto Feature dialog box. The hit targets are automatically displayed for the round slot.

  1. Adjust the nominal information in the Auto Feature dialog box to match the theoretical values of the round slot. Also, adjust the values of the Probe Toolbox as needed.

  2. Click Test to test round slot measurement.

  3. Click Create on the Auto Feature dialog box to add the round slot to the measurement routine.

  4. Save the measurement routine for future execution. See "A Note on Executing a Vision Measurement Routine".
