Audible deviations

Hello all,
I know this is an odd question, but has anyone come across a script
that would use perhaps a .wav file to audibly convey the deviations
of vector points in real time when running the cmm program.
It would come in handy for me in a few instances. (Not being able to see the
monitor would be one instance.)
Or maybe an idea of how to start to tackle a script of this sort.,
Any comments would be appreciated.

Thanks

  • Thanks kingsid1,

    I haven't looked at the forum for a couple of days.
    I will give that code a try.
    My final objective is to be able to "speak via script" the out of tolerance value
    of perhaps 500 vector points will program is running.
    I would have to take the previous vector point deviation, determine
    if it was out of tolerance and then call the script.
    If I had +/- .005 (inches) tolerance, and the deviation was +.009 inches,
    I would love to hear a "plus .004" echo thru the CMM room. Slight smile
    How involved would that be?? Confused

  • You would need an if_goto flow control after every single output that jumps to the .bas file if the o/tol condition exists.
    You would likely need to format the way you title your outputs because you will need to pass your nom and tols into variables to pass into the .bas file.
    Then you would need an if_goto flow to return you to the code just after the output.
    I think what you are looking to accomplish is pretty cool, I hope it works out for you.
