Step 8 - Review the Calibration Results
When the calibration of the TESASTAR-PR / HR-P Probe Changer is complete, select the Ports tab in the Probe Changer dialog box (Edit | Preferences | Probe Changer). The calibration information now exists for the location of each calibrated port. For example:
Probe Changer dialog box - Ports tab with calibration results
When you view the results, look for the following. Any significant deviations from these expectations may be due to a bad hit.
This rack is not necessarily aligned parallel to any axis of the CMM. However, the X and Y values should show equal spacing between ports (roughly 30 mm apart).
The Z values should be nearly identical since the ports are all at the same height.
The results during measurement routine execution are:
Probe entities that are added to each of the ports are automatically picked up from that location whenever PC-DMIS executes a LOADPROBE command for that probe.
The probe body moves to the mount point and then into the "unload" port to drop off the current probe.
The current probe remains in the port while the probe body lifts away to detach.
From there, the probe moves over to the next "load" position and down onto the new probe. This automatically engages the new module.
It then moves back out of the port and over to the rack’s mount point.
From there, it continues to measure.
