I'm new to PC DMIS and I'm having an issue where it seems like my manual alignment is not properly telling my DCC alignment where the features are.
I'll get a program up and running, and then I have to move the part to a different location on the table for one reason or another.
I run another manual alignment, go to run the program, and it doesn't work.
I was able to resolve the problem by re-setting my initial alignment and updating the dependent features, but my understanding is that I shouldn't have to do this every time and that it should do it automatically.
quick guess is that your manual alignment features do not have the correct nominals, they are still machine values, not alignment values. You have no AXIS_OFFSETS in your manual alignment either. Even if you want the features to be ZERO, you should use an AXIS_OFFSET of 0.0000000000001 (Pdmis will not put a zero axis offest in the alignment, it needs to be a number other than zero)
If i'm understanding you correctly then I should go back to my manual features and correct their theoretical values to match their position based off the alignment I intend to make further down in in the program, correct?
