Automatic probe calibration script

xcalibur
Hi,
Confused
I'd like to make an automatic script that will calibrate automaticaly all probes and tips positions used in a program. I uses a MCR20 probe changer with 6 modules.
Find attached the program i wrote but it doesn't work very well.
It open the probe calibration window and select only the tip position used in the program to calibrate but then, it ask me if i want to calibrate all the probe positions (when i use the command 'qualify2').
There is a mistake or something i don't understand !!

Is there anyone who could help me?

Thanks

  • Great idea for a Script! If you get this to work there is no need for a calibration program at all. No need to worry about adding and subtracting probes or tips. I also have these programs that sometimes get extra tips, or then I delete a bunch, and forget to update the cal program. This would take care of that.

    Did the zz= actuprb.qualify2 work? In other words, can you get it to work for just 1 probe and tip? Or does this command never work? I would start with a simple program that just calibrates 1 probe/tip. The try to do 2 tips, then 2 probes 2 tips and work you way into whatever you have right now.

    Oh, and another tip: create a PC-DMIS program that calibrates 2 probes and 2 tips. Make sure it runs clean. The export it to a VBasic file. Then look at the code that got generated. That may provide a clue as to what you are doing wrong.

    Hope this helps. Please post when you have it all done. Seems like a very useful piece of code to me!
