I'm working with a large volume of parts that are mostly profile driven. Is there a way to output the high and low of many profiles as a dimension(s) itself?
Would this work for your scenario? This would only give you the high or low of each scan.
Max,min index. From scan assign v1 =maxindex(scn?.hit[1..scn?.numhits].z) then assign v2=scn?.hit[v1].z
Make generic point using v2 as the z meas. (note all [are square brackets)
Also instead of creating V2 you can paste this "scn1.HIT[V1].TX" TY or TZ into the generic point XYZ's and "scn1.HIT[V1].I" J or K into the vectors.
You can export your report to an Excel file and extract the min and max there. Just use Excel's MIN and MAX functions on a range.
If you are trying to go across many parts, you will get many files (one for each part), but the method will still be the same.
Yes, it's a workaround, but I use it for high/low hole diameters, profiles, so one, within a single part, because PC-DMIS has no built-in facility to do this.
