use edge points.
cylinder probes don't work as you cannot calibrate them in pcdmis.
there are dozens of threads on this subject.
do a search and see the comments.
I need to know this also. We just got a cylinder stylus and I'm anxious to use it to hit edges of some .020" material. Any help out there??
I agree with their sugestions. However, to answer your question:
Activate "Shak qual", Enter Number shank hits 4, and Shank Offset (0.020" in your case).

Roberto,
I think what everyone is saying is, yes, you can qualify the shank portion as you described, but nowhere in PC-DMIS does it allow you to use that calibration information. The calibration of a shank only uses the hemispherical calibration data.

And if you DO use the shank you have no idea of where it is relative to the hemisphere calibration data.
(it will not be perfectly in line so the only head angle you can even attempt this exercise on is A0B0)
