Don't break the calibration chain!
I am posting this in hopes to have it made into a sticky since I see this issue arise a lot in the Vision section. This document perfectly explains the calibration process for calibrating offset with a Vision primary system with TTP.
The move points are completely optional. I have them in there are for two reasons:
1. The first one is to get the camera in the vicinity of the ring gage, so if someone other than me needs to calibrate, it takes less time to try to find the starting edge of the ring gage. Note: The first three hits are manual hits to find the center of the ring gage for calibration.
2. The next one is the move up around the sphere (my sphere is between the ring gage and the probe rack), so I don't hit anything with the probe.
After the first probe calibrates the sphere, I do not use anymore move points since the autocalibrate automatically moves up above the sphere. I do not believe these settings are applied to the ring gage, hence the move points.
