PC DMIS NOT CALCULATING DATUM BONUS

I am having issues getting the bonus from datums not being applied to my positional results. As you can see above, datum E should have a bonus of .1701. 

Under the bonus column in the positional frame, there is .0000 bonus. Any help on getting this figured out would be appreciated!

  • The bonus column would be for any available bonus coming form the feature (CYL1 in your case) when it is referenced at MMC or LMC.  Your feature control frame shows that is it RFS, hence no bonus is displayed.  Datum E is referenced at MMB and the "bonus" you are referring to is actually the amount of available datum shift.  PC-DMIS Geometric Tolerance commands do not currently display datum shift information but we do plan on making it available in a future version.
