PC-DMIS 2021.1 SP2 - Possible bug with linear open scans & findnoms?

When I create a linear open scan with “findnoms”, after I close the command and open it again it changes to “master”.
After I changed it a second time to "findnoms" it keeps that setting.

It doesn’t happen every time and I can’t reproduce it but it happened enough times,
that a coworker and I both noticed it independently on two different CMMs.

Does anybody have the same issue or maybe knows why this could happen?

I will continue to try and reproduce it but I’m happy for your input.

    Hello @Aron Baldauf About PC-DMIS 2021.1 SP2 - Possible bug with linear open scans & findnoms?

    From the post in the forum, I understand that you are trying to create a linear open scan with the "FINDNOMS" option selected from nominal method, after generating the points and creating the scan, the nominal method automatically changes to "Master". Then for the second time when you edit the same command and change the option from "Master" to "FINDNOMS" and create the scan, it keeps "FINDNOMS" in the nominal methods.

    This is as per design, working as expected

    Find Noms
    When the FIND NOMS option is selected, PC-DMIS will pierce the CAD model to find the closest location on a CAD surface to the measured point. It will then set the nominals to the location found on the CAD surface.

    When the Nominal is not found from the CAD, the measured data from the first execution will be considered as the nominal value for the second execution, so first time the nominal method will change to "Master" since the nominal value is not found and for the Second execution it will keep the "FINDNOMS" as nominal method

    If you have some other issue, please provide more details.

    if this clarified your issue, I will comment the same in the forum.

    please feel free to contact me.

    Thank you, have a great day!

    Hi Jdevaraj

    Thanks for the answer but I still don't understand completely. I have a part with CAD.

    When I have the execution controls set to "Re-learn" and the nominal method set to "FINDNOMS"
    It already keeps it at "FINDNOMS" after I generate and create the scan.

    Only when I set the execution controls to "Normal" and the nominal method set to "FINDNOMS"
    it changes it to "Master" after I generate and create the scan. (not run just create)

    Why does it change with in "Normal" mode and not in "Re-learn" mode?
    And why does it change at all at "Normal" mode when I have a CAD and select the surfaces?

    Thank you for your time!
