"Failed to detect a focus position for feature <featurename>"

What can cause this?

Tried
- new probe files
- different Z-heights
- different lightning
- different backgrounds
- different surfaces

I can visually "see" that it does focus very well, during the autofocus phase - however, it does not seem to "lock" or "detect" this...
CMM-V (HP-C-VE) in 2016.0 SP1.

Ideas?

  • It says HP-C-VE on the can, but even if I change it to "CMM-VE" in the probefile, it can't focus (not tested in a calibration, only focus on part).



    Hi VPT !
    Did you calibrate the focus camera ?
    I believe you can't use it without a complete calibration (light, focus, offsets).
    For it, you should ave a little glass with circles and squares. The total calibration is long, but you have to do it only one or twice a year.
