Hello,
We have a pair of calibration programs that need to be run at the beginning of the day prior to running production. How could I automatically "lock up" the machine until the operator runs these programs? If there is a method of doing this in VBA, that would be ideal.
Thanks,
M
I was talking to a controls engineer about this and we were looking at doing something similar by using a PLC and tying into the e-stop circuitry on the machine, the script seems like a much simpler way to go about fixing the issue but a PLC will guarantee that the operators can't bypass it. Not sure if that functionality is there on all CMM's but we already have a custom I/O box tied to another interlock that we can use.
