Automatic Probe Qualification

InspectorJester
Good morning!
Running PC-DMIS 2013 MR1 SP5 on Windows 7 x86
----------
I'm embarking on the typical quest of autocalibration routines.
This quest involves an Optiv Performance 443 Camera probe, as well as a plethora of touch probes. I'm moreso concerned with the Camera and 1 probe.

I was able to create a standard autocalibration routine for the single probe using Parameter sets.
However, being an Optiv, I have this big camera I would like to calibrate.

This is a little more complicated unforunately!
However, I am confident. Perhaps overly so?

Regarding this post: https://www.pcdmisforum.com/forum/pc-dmis-enterprise-metrology-software/pc-dmis-vision/21364-auto-qualification-issues-with-optiv-1-vision-system-with-pcdmis-2001

I am having similar problems as the individual in the aforementioned post. When I calibrate the touch probe, I am using a parameter set with the defaults and MAN+DCC. I am able to start the program and run it, automatically calibrate/qualify the touch probe. However, when I calibrate the camera, the crosshair Hit Target "EM1" to 3 does not show up. I am curious as to why?

I am unable to autocalibrate the camera because of this. To compensate I manually calibrate the camera and have an autocal program for the probes. But I'd like a 1 button solution to both if possible!

Anyone have success with autocalibrating a camera?

  • Can you try to ASSIGN/V1=QUALTOOLDATA("xyz","the name of the ring"), just to check if PC-DMIS has the location in memory ?
    Are you sure to have write rights in the register ?

    Pretty Sure!
    I like to consider myself the resident IT guy (mostly because our external IT services are, suffice to say, lacking) I demanded it.
    I can open regedit and add and remove entries at whim.

    When I select my tip as the camera, and assign a variable as you have suggested, I am given XYZ coordinates. I am able to insert a move command and get the camera in the center of the ring.
    The CMM knows there's a ring there, and knows it's supposed to take points. But when I select MAN+DCC or YES the probe has moved, when using an AUTOCALIBRATE function, I am not able to drag the crosshair to the edge of the ring as normal. THis is my problem.

    I would DCC everything, but then that one time it errors out someones going to throw a fit
