find hole settings

I have some .080 dia. holes that are about .150 out of location, how can I get it to search farther out?

  • Try increasing your prehit distance​.

    From the help file:
    If the hole is not found:

    [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.
