So many questions...Lets start here

I am a new user to pcdmis and using a leica laser tracker. I am feeling very comfortable shooting 2D projects but having some difficulties shooting 3D. I guess I can start off with this basic question... when creating a line or a plane using just the RRR or with nests other then the edge nests how do I know wich way to pull away from the feature. For example, I was shooting 2 parellel planes and constructing a plane in the midway point for my datum point. In creating the 2 planes i pulled away from the surfaces <---I I----> and the constructed plane was not centered but offset to one side. Inserting like this worked I----> <-----I why? Stuck out tongue closed eyes-Please be easy on the Noob

  • That does help clerify it thank you, and I appologize it was not a midway point it was a theoretical mid plane as a Datum surface. I got the tracker October and had a 2 day session with the sales rep before using it. More than a month later we finally had what was to be a 5 day training session. (The instructor missed his flight for the first day of class) The next 2 days was how to setup and BASIC use of the tracker in which I already knew and what was gone over the rest of the class just wasnt enough time to get into the more advanced states of PCDMIS. I went from using Cam2 FARO 2 years ago to a whole new realm of software.
