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.
Matthew D. Hoedeman is there any way you could give me a little more insight into leapfrog? I am trying to use it for a different part now, and the f1 help page for it on PC Dmis is not really helping me.
Essentially, I am trying to perform a bunch of surface profiles on points I have picked. I am able to do this on one side of the part, however when I go to do the other side it runs but it lists every point on that side and says it needs more scan data. So, for some reason I'm not collecting data when I scan for a second time. I feel like this may be a good situation to use a leapfrog, however I frankly haven't been able to figure it out. If you have any advice for me that would be appreciated.
Obviously I encourage anyone to jump in on this discussion I only tagged Matt because he originally brought the idea of leapfrog to my attention.
Matthew, so after I probe my 3 points and insert the leapfrog into my program, should I remove the points and execute it? Does it work because I told it where the part was going to be? And in that case would it get messed up if I do not put the part in the exact same spot when scanning as it was during the measuring of my leapfrog?
Sorry for asking so many questions I know you haven't used it in a long time.
