Hello, I was recently working on a part and bent the 3mm diameter probe tip on the Romer arm. I unthreaded the bent tip and threaded in the same length tip with a 2mm diameter ruby ball. How do I update or re-calibrate the romer so that it knows the tip diameter is 2mm now rather than 3mm?
I've "done" it.... with Hexagon's help. Don't remember exactly how but 1) you need a qualification sphere. 2) it involved writing the information back to the arm by changing a "bit" in the probe file.. Don't remember all the steps. Sorry.
Open the RDS control panel, click on the probe panel, highlight the 3mm probe, click the edit button and change the diameter and name, then calibrate the probe. I am not at the Romer and have not done this for a while but I think that's the general procedure.
