How To Force PCDMIS to Save Results Via Automation ?

ECOSSE
Hi All,

I have a strange problem where I have automated the tip selection to be calibrated and select these via automation.

I'm an IT guy and using PCDMIS offline to test and everything works e.g. results file gets updated etc.

When I go live on the cmm, the probe goes through the motions after my .Qualify command and calibrates all the tips, but does not update the XYZ, diameter etc to the probe tip data, or output the ProbeFileName.results file ?

Am I missing something here ?

Do I need to re-interogate some Automation feature to access the results and create my own results file ?

Or do I need to set a particular property to make dmis save the results file ?

I'm not issuing DMIS commands to the program, just using Automation with all the standard objects and properties.

Cheers,

Dougie.

  • I don't know if the .results file creation is available through automation.

    You should, however, be able to access the probe properties through the Tip command.

    I can access the properties and when issued via automation, I can update the tip(item).date and tip(item).time, but it appears I must also update the other data after the probe is calibrated.

    PCDMIS is not automatically updating the probe data files with the date, time, XYX, diameter when the .Qualify command is issued via VB6.

    I need to know where to sniff out this data after calibration is complete - e.g. are there a new set of .Feat commands I can access ?

    Cheers for reply, I'm super stuck on this.
