I am new to PC-DMIS and our machine was just installed. As I am constructing my manual alignment, I am asked "Do you want to make Y- or X+ the active workplane? I didn't notice this at the training center. Should I use the "don't ask me this again" in this case?
yes, you should be OKAY as long as there is enough arc for the machine to see that it isn't a line, but is in fact an arc. Of course, AFTER the feature is created, it KNOWS it is an arc, and will comp correctly. You may have to do an X+ tounch to a Y+ touch to learn it, but once created, it's fine. NO probe comp is done until ALL touches are measured
