All of MY CMMs are run in protected mode. Machinists place parts in a fixture, scan the serial number and just review the report. They can only turn off/on the CMM, home, run calibration program and part programs. I put in some operator comments and pictures of setups as well.
No one does any manual alignments or changing styli either. Once in a while the probe might get stuck in the probe rack or part was placed incorrectly in the fixture.
