I am trying to cal a Mycrona using PcDmis Vision and it keeps wanting me to line up with a retangular target. I have centered on i think every target possible. I would really appreciate any help with this. Thanks all.
Mycrona Signum RL
PcDmis Vision 4.3mr1
Hexagon Calibration scale
Here is a pic of where to line up the rectangular targets. I usually focus and center on these targets before i even bring up the calibration, but have also done it without being on the targets also. Do the illumination first then optics then probe offset. if you have mulitsensors you will also have to do probe offset, but that is last. hopefully some of this helps.
That is crazy because that is what i square up to. But when i go to line up to it my camera is really zoomed in. I thought that i was aligning to the right spot. Now i can say that i am not calibrating the lighting so could that be what the main problem is right now? Thanks again all.
I would try the illumination first. focus on a sheet of white paper, then do the toplight and ringlight. remove the paper and do the backlight. I have a fixed lens so i don't remember if you have to be all the way zoomed in or out to do the calibration for the optics. try either way.
We are running 4.3mr1 and when it zooms in to align the retangle and then zooms out it moves off of center which leads me to believe that the camera might have been knocked out of square. All circles in the y axis are elipses. We have them coming in a week to look at this. But it still strikes me a little weird that this thing keeps messing up.
I am running 2010 MR3 without to much trouble, tried 2011 but had some calibration issues so far. sounds like the head is bumped. mine did the same thing after i bumped it. it doesn't take much. but anyhow, mine would not calibrate either with this issue. when changing direction up or down the crosshair shifts off of what you are focused on. once the head was back square the cal went fine.
That has to be what it is then, because that is exactlly what mine is doing. When i focus and then it zooms out it is no longer on the center. I guess i will be waiting for them to come in and fix it. This sucks. I wish i could get this fixed a little faster.
Oh i figured i would report back that the head was not knocked out of position but there was a setting in the settings editor that was switched. Problem solved for now.
