Initiates the Auto-Correspond with Proximity Trigger measurement routine. This method automatically triggers measurement when the probe has moved within a definable threshold of a nominal point group or vector group.
0 |
Collection Instrument ID |
Instrument ID |
The instrument ID of the instrument to perform the measurement. |
1 |
Collection Object Name |
Nominal Point Group or Vector Group |
The nominal points or vectors to measure. |
2 |
Collection Object Name |
Results Point Group for mea- surements |
The collection/group name for the resulting measured points. |
3 |
Double |
Point distance threshold |
The probe must be within this radius from the base of the vectors to trigger measurement. |
4 |
Double |
Vector axis threshold |
The probe must be within this radius from the nominal vector axis to trigger measurement. |
5 |
Boolean |
Project results to nominal vector |
Indicates whether the measured points should be projected to the nominal vectors. |
6 |
Double |
Warbler ramp start zone distance |
The warbler audio tone will begin ramping up when the probe is at this radius from the nominal vector. |
7 |
Boolean |
Show Watch window on startup |
Indicates whether a watch window depicting deviation between the current probe position and the closest vector should be displayed. |
8 |
Vector Group Name |
Vector Group to make while Measuring (blank means ignore) |
If specified, a vector group will be created depict- ing deviation between the nominal vector base and the measured point (or projected measured point, if argument 5 is TRUE). |
9 |
Boolean |
Make unmeasured group when done |
Indicates whether a point group of the points that weren’t measured should be created. |
10 |
Boolean |
Measure each point only once |
False allows multiple observations per point to be collected as the probe approaches the target |
None.
SUCCESS |
The measurements were completed successfully. |
FAILURE |
The instrument or reference group/vector was not found, or measurement failed. |
The instrument must be in the active collection, and its interface must be running. The measure each point only once check box control was added to facilitate shank measurement and other applications where the closest sample to the target points should be obtained. This option should be set to True when using a scanner.
