Proper DCC Programming Etiquette

Good evening. Thanks for reading. I know I've been flooding these boards with inquiries. Just a programming newb overly excited and enthusiastic about the cmm stuff. So thanks for all the insight and patience.

When you program Dcc starting new do you?
  1. Insert comment about the readpoint and dcc after loadprobe and active probe tip
  2. Translate to readpoint if needed on cad model on transform screen..then
  3. Establish the readpoint alignment and zero the THEOs first time thru..then
  4. Lock down the part with a basic alignment..then
  5. Pick up my datums and orgin and align to them
Then go about the measurement routine? Is my approach ok or does it need some work?

Also, how can I use and build different alignments? When I did a part I switched my alignment to something else. What i wanted to know was ok. But it messed up other numbers that were originally good..significantly. How can i use and recall different alignments while dimensioning?

I appreciate everyrhing. Thanks again
