How To Force PCDMIS to Save Results Via Automation ?

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.

  • This looks promising but can you confirm that I can access this data and it will be updated after I have issued the .Qualify command ?

    Or is this the same data I can get by querying the tip object ?

    From the look of above, I should wait until I have received all the hits (which I can detect), then query this data ?

    Does that sound correct ?

    Please remember I am automatically selecting the tips I want calibrated from my application. This is working and the probe does it's duty and calibrates all the tips - I just need to acces the results.

    p.s. sorry for so many questions. I'm at home now for the weekend, though I may pop in tomorrow to try this Slight smile
