Concentricity, how can I get a proper reading?

So, I am using a romer arm to measure concentricity of two holes. With a traditional CMM (and different software) we have found the concentricity of the holes to be 0.26mm. However, with the romer arm it shows the concentricity to be 2.9mm. If you take the acuals from the two holes and calculate the concentricity it should read like the traditional CMM???? Why is PC DMIS not giving me the correct reading? Any suggestions on how to measure this dimension with the Romer ARM?

  • I'll try selecting the datum feature secondly; however, from Wes's response, I thought I couldn't check concentricity with PC DMIS??? Thanks for the input. I understand the proper way to take the hits on the part. We just changed software from Power Inspect to PC DMIS and I am still working on the programming side of the software. Thanks.
