[INDENT=2]
PC-DMIS backs away from the surface and starts a circular search pattern that is (feature radius – probe radius) out from the theoretical feature center.
The search tries (2 * PI * feature radius/(feature radius – probe radius)) locations around the search circle.
If the hole is still not found, the search radius increases by (feature radius – probe radius) and continues until the search radius is equal to the prehit distance.
If the prehit is smaller than (feature radius – probe radius), only one search pattern is completed.[/INDENT]
