For context, I have only been programming for our CMM for less than a month after taking the CMM 101 class through Hexagon last month.
I have enough knowledge to write a fairly successful program; however, this knowledge has been lacking when trying to troubleshoot issues in the programs. This is the second time that I've had this specific issue, though for some unknown reason the problem resolved itself on the first program.
After doing a manual alignment on our part, the program turns on DCC mode and should capture those same features again and go through another alignment as it runs through the rest of the program. I've included pictures of the CAD after manual alignment is done, the summary of the initial part of the program, and the manual alignment below for reference.
As soon as the machine starts running in DCC mode, it moves in the opposite direction that it should. It moves in the y-plus direction when it should be moving in the y-minus direction and it does the same thing across the x-axis.
The hit locations and path are shown, and the first two should be closest to the y-minus side of the part but the CMM moves to the y-plus side of the part. The location of the probe in PC-DMIS also does not correspond to the actual probe position when it is measuring this feature, the program shows the probe moving correctly while in reality it is flipped about the x and y axes. This problem continues throughout the rest of the program, at least until it crashes when it moves in the wrong direction.
I've tried redoing my alignment, but with my limited experience I have no idea what else to do to solve this problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
