    Contura 617 Safety Module Error

    Hi Tommy, This error usually indicates a hardware issue. I would recommend contacting your local support line (if you haven't already) to have a hardware ticket created. Make sure to include the serial number of the machine in question. Thanks!

    Calibration Timing

    I'm sorry that happened, but I would rather it had been that direction than the other. In my old life, I got burned by a 3rd party saying the machine was in spec when it was nowhere near close.
  4. was thinking something like: while True: if modbus_service.get_station_state(1) == "READY": break time.sleep(0.1) run_gom_operation_for_station_1() would help to have more context into what OP is trying todo, but hope it helps!

    Editing Autorun arn file for paths

    Well, that I didnt think of. I will have to look into that because I set up autorun as Master and run as Operator or myself (Rick Stanich). The operator has minimal rights, I have all rights.
  6. I have the app and it is worth every penny
  7. Hi Anders, some ideas that worked in the past with similar parts: best-fit with selection of the flange with rotational constraint around the cylinder axis using the section from the screenshot -> Local Best-Fit by nominal elements section parallel to the flange plane through the highlighted area (use a selection all around, so the actual part is cut at any position) -> create a curve curvature (ZEISS Quality Tech Guide) -> create point of max. curvature (ZEISS Quality Tech Guide). It should be at the sharp radius of the flange (lower arrow9 with this function https://techguide.zeiss.com/en/zeiss-inspect-2026/article/cmd_primitive_create_point_by_curve_surface_intersection.html you might get the intersection points from a circle with the small surfaces of the gap (upper arrow) circle would be around the axis of your part through the gap's surfaces along the circumference, just as an example of the function: Not sure it helps here, but there is a function 'create deviation to geometry' (ZEISS Quality Tech Guide) you can create a maximum label on, or on any kind of 'colored' distance like continuous curve distance.
  8. That can be done by bestfit after prealignment. Select from side a rectangular area on mesh and use constraint to allow only rotation in correct axis. I was testing cylindrical section, but it had mediocre results.
  9. Hi Nanno! Thanks for the fast reply. More information + pictures are below. The highlighted area on the CAD is what's not aligning. Its a non continuous flange. I can create a section that only grabs this region (via creating a section from a cylinder), but am trying to figure out how to use this to get a point (or any other element) to translate from the nominal section to actual section. As I understand this, once I have that, I can use to align my parts. Is there any way to create a point that is taken at the point furthest from another point or element? Like an inverse caliper? Thank you so much for you help!

    Air filtering systems

    After encountering the same problem, we also purchased air dryers to go with our CMM devices. We have a single system for both devices, an annual maintenance agreement, and the filters are changed regularly. .

    Air filtering systems

    We have 4 stages before Accura own filters ( i hope i got that right ) 1. 25um ( C238-F11/3 ) 2. 5um ( C238-F12/3 ) 3. 0,1um ( MX2-F10 ) 4. 0,1um carbon ( MX2-F11 )
  12. You can check the requested free licenses in the softwarestore under my account > my software. You can than check if both keys are already activated

    Air filtering systems

    We have oil escaping our dryer/filter systems and bleeding into our Contura (size - 12/24/8. serial # 732207560438) and Accura (size - 16/30/10. serial # 201209810136). We want to set up something to capture the oil for both CMM's. what is the best option for this? Is it best to have one system in place for both CMM's?

    Editing Autorun arn file for paths

    Sometimes i got into situation, where only my account was loading empty arn file even i got into this settings and set autorun.arn. On your machine - do you switch accounts? It can stay from previous login.

    Editing Autorun arn file for paths

    There are definitely alternate path locations or something controlling this outside standard settings. On this particular setup, Calypso is set to start with Autorun. The Autorun path is: C:\Inspections\PCM Porgrams\Autorun.arn When I start Calypso, it somehow defaults to the original path: C:\Users\Public\Documents\Zeiss\Some folder\Some other folder\yet another folder\Autorun.arn When I say defaults, Autorun will not load the Desktop\layers because it is searching in the wrong path and generates an error that it can't find the file in the path: C:\Users\Public\Documents\Zeiss\Some folder\Some other folder\yet another folder\Autorun.arn It is ignoring what is in the Start setup. So, where else can the path be defined for Autorun paths to the arn file?

    I always wondered who made those awesome guides!! Thank you so much for sharing these awesome guides @Joseph Giacona

    Calibration Timing

    We got accidentally missed one year so we schedule ours a full year in advance now. With a reminder task to check 6 months out. Missing the zeiss calibration was an expensive disaster. We hired a third party vendor to do a "qualification check" and they claimed the machine was OOT by a few microns and caused a massive NCR issue. Zeiss tech came and it was, of course, still in tolerance /eyeroll.
  18. Hi, the alignment is applied to each stage. Maybe an alignment after the prealignment helps to refine it, like Martin proposed? It is possible to prepare an alignment during measurement, which helps for symmetric parts for examle: https://techguide.zeiss.com/en/zeiss-inspect-2026/article/how_to_create_initial_alignment_for_stage_projects.html The original alignment ("as measured") would be defined as initial alignment in that case. It would be possible to use a single element transformation (ZEISS Quality Tech Guide) per stage and use 'original alignment as initial alignment', but this is a manual process. Nanno
  19. Hi Martin Once again, many thanks 🙂 It works now 🙂
  20. I found it in PiWeb editor. Select "Plot" page Select on Structure page a "Curve.FD", unpack it and select line profile At properties unpack "Connecting lines" and there it is to be checked "Connect segments"
  21. Perhaps it can be set as default in PiWeb protocol editor
  22. The plot now displays correctly on screen when 'Connect segments' is enabled. However, when generating a PDF report the tolerance curves disappear again. Does anyone know how to make the 'Connect segments' setting persistent in the report output?
  23. Hi Martin Many thanks. It worked to select the connect segments 🙂
  24. I can not replicate your situation - i'm still getting tolerance lines shown. In form characteristic don't forget to check "Tolerances from feature" and perhaps in PiWeb graph click right mouse button and select "Join segments" that can do the trick. In my example i had tolerance in range and not for every point - so that can be the cause
  25. Hello, I am new to the ZEISS Quality Forum, so I hope someone can help me with this issue. I have a Curve Form characteristic using Segment Tolerances. In old CALYPSO versions the Curve Form report displayed: - Nominal curve - Upper tolerance curve - Lower tolerance curve - Deviation curve. After upgrading to CALYPSO 7.8.00 the report only shows the colored point representation (In Tolerance / Out of Tolerance). The legend still contains “Nominal Value” and “Tolerances”, but the actual tolerance curves are not plotted. Has this functionality been removed, is there a setting to enable the old plot style, or could this be a bug? Attached are screenshots from both versions. Thanks, Michael Old version: Version 7.8.00:

    Hilfe bei Umsetzung einer Lagenmessung

    I would start from bottom of that bigger cylinder. make alignment from right cylinder, rotation stopped by 4° plane ( origin from cylinder ) make intersection of theo plane to obtain bottom line make theo line or plane at distance 3,8 from line in step 2 make intersection of step 3 and 4° plane Different approach can lead to some differences in result of distance 9,6. Problematic is direction of this dimension. 4°. For every 0,01mm difference in [3,8] will lead into 0,143mm for 9,6 dimension.
