Scan results different from keyed-in points

I have a part with a very tight profile tolerance (form+location) of .0005. I wrote a program with a model and aligned to all 3 datums.

I keyed in gage points and read the vectors from the model. Part is out of tolerance (which I expected) by about .001, the profile being off center.

Next I added a linear TTP scan along the same section where I probed the gage points. The scan shows deviations up to .018!Confused Same program, same part, same alignment.

What could I be doing wrong with my scan to get a result that differs so much from my keyed-in points?
