I'm currently working with an Absolute Arm 85 equipped with the RS6 scanner. I was wondering if it is possible to create a program that calls for the part to be scanned, then flipped mid execution in order to account for tolerances of the entire part. Basically I am trying to scan and check an entire part in one chunk of code rather than having to perform two separate scans.
Equate alignment is not what you want for an arm, it's called LEAPFROG.
And as far as I know, you can't scan, leapfrog, then continue scanning in the same COP, you'll have to make a second cop, after the leapfrog. BUT, you should be able to make a 3rd cop out of the 2 scanned cops.

leapfrog is pretty 'easy'. but, it will depend on the part actually. Easiest leapfrog to do is to hot-glue 3 tooling balls to the part, use them for the leapfrog.
