Probe change in a loop issue.

Having an issue with a probe change in a loop. For whatever the reaseon, it is skipping over the Probe command altogether. I have a move point for the head to move up, change the probe and keep going. Single part works fine, in a loop, it skips right over the probe command after the move point.

Anybody have any ideas??

Thanks

Using PCDMIS 2010 and 4.3mr2. Both versions have the same issue.

Maybe add the same move point at the start and one at the end?

Or load probe at the start and one at the end.

It could be related to this check box. Not positive on that.

You could try to insert A0B0 position just before and just after the loop. If you change of position at the end of the loop, when you come back at the start, PC-DMIS reads the old position. In this case, I usually assign the position as a variable, and I call it. The most problem of this is that I must have A0B0 in between each position.

You can try it, for example : it turns B from 0 to 270 each 90°.
LOADPROBE/L20_D4
TIP/T1A0B0, SHANKIJK=0, 0, 1, ANGLE=0
ASSIGN/V1 = 0
ASSIGN/V2 = 0
MOVE/CLEARPLANE
V4 =LOOP/START, ID = YES, NUMBER = 3, START = 1, SKIP = ,
OFFSET: XAXIS = 0, YAXIS = 0, ZAXIS = 0, ANGLE = 0
ASSIGN/V3 = "T1A"+V1+"B"+V2
MOVE/CLEARPLANE
TIP/V3, SHANKIJK=0, 0, 1, ANGLE=0
MOVE/CLEARPLANE
(...) : your measurements in the loop
ASSIGN/V2 = V2+90
LOOP/END
