Dimension Out of Tolerance command?

I think I did this in intermediate class, but that was 4 years ago: I want to be able to output various other commands when a dimension is out of tolerance. Can anyone give me any ideas on how?

  • Do you want to stop after each out of tolerance dimension like a message box or just stop the program all together? As far as the wave file goes you'd need to automate a voice emulator to say each dimension specifically.

    I think it would be tough and involved, do you have blind people running your CMM?

    Some of this can be done I think without too much trouble depending on exactly what you want. A bas would likely loop through each dimension to find out of tolerance ones. I am not sure how to code it so it only looks for the most recently measured one while ignoring the rest without hard coding it. Then you'd have to write a bas for each individual part program that would have to be edited with each part program as well. It might be best to code it with PCDMIS. Like J said an IF/End IF evaluation after each dimension. If you had a voice emulator then you could pass a string to a bas that automated it perhaps. If it is going to be dimension specific then I say do it with PCDMIS.
