Parameter Sets

Is there a way to create parameter sets at an offline seat, and move them to different online machines?

I realize they save in the probe file itself, but is it dooming to say- copy probe file from machine, create parameter set, paste probe file back to original location?

We do A LOT of offline programing and don't have the luxury of spending much time at the machine. We need to try having all these things setup prior to shipping a program to the floor.

Any help appreciated.

  • You can always copy a probe file from an ON-LINE machine to an OFFLINE seat of Pcdmis and then use it to program from. Calibration data is saved in the probe file, so you will 'see' exactly what the machine has. You can copy a probe file from an OFFLINE seat to an ON-LINE machine, but it MUST BE CALIBRATED on the machine.

    If you have seven probes set up on the machine, you can copy those probe files to the offline seat and program using them all day long.
