Hey guys, I'm new to this whole forum thing. I just had a question that I'm not sure can be answered as I have inquired with many people about it. Has anyone had an issue with after starting up your computer and PC-DMIS the next day, whether you start running the part with your manual alignment marked or unmarked, that you have a vector change. By this I mean that instead of the probe moving to a clearplane as is usually customary when beginning DCC that the vector in the "Z" axis actually flips. So if you have a clearplane set for say an inch about the top surface of the part, it will actually slam down into the part instead of moving up? Has anyone had this issue and know what could be causing it and how to avoid it. It hasn't been as much an issue lately, but there was a few months not too long ago that everyday I came in and started up my part I would have to turn the jog box way down, cancel the execution, and then as if a blessing, when I re-executed the program, everything went back to the way it was? Very strange I know. Thanks guys!
I suspected that something in the alignment could cause this to happen, thats whay I asked you to post the code for the alignment.
Since it isn't related to a specific partprogram, I suspect that it could have been something with the PC-DMIS/machine communication or the machine/CAD setup under F5-settings.
Who knows, maybe you just need to "home" the machine in order to get it's geometry right (after it has been shut down)?
