Measuring Ring Gage Tactile 2018 R2

I'm still new to working with Tactile probes on a vision system, this is not the first time I have ran an cross sensor calibration but for some reason this time it just simply will not fallow through.

I can't get ANY tactile probes to measure my ring gage during an cross sensor offset calibration.



It will run through the camera offset calibration just fine then once moving onto the TTP the machine prompts me to take an ID point @ 6 o'clock.

I take the 6 o'clock ID point and the probe then moves to about 2 o'clock takes an ID point then goes to 12 o'clock but instead of slowing down and taking a point it just crashes right in the Ring Gage.

Anyone have any idea's what might be going on? TIA

  • This helped a lot, thank you, silly mistake on my part.

    However now it's giving me an error after trying to create the plan on top of ring gage. After it does this it gives me an absolute move prompt. The coordinates given are out of reach, it even gives an error message "out of travel". When choosing to skip this it then prompts me to take 9 hits with TTP at various coordinates that are no where near the ring gage.

    Regardless of that I have taken 9 points all around the ID of ring gage, and it then prompts me to take 2 more points in the ID.
    This is kind of where I have stopped. I have never ran into this, not even during my vision101 training. I'm wondering do I just continue and it will eventually calibrate?
