After some successful hunting and seeking, I got our first CMM set up for offline simulation. I was tinkering around with setting up the stylus racks and holders and hit a snag there. We run XXT probes, but the only models loaded are for Vast XT plates. Has anyone had any success with loading the probe socket holders into their simulation environments?

@Marcel Hartmann I've found that in "inspection" file there is twice section of "OMTecSafety" in which is one probe system and i secondary there is another probe system. All other features have only one definiton of that "OMTecSafety" Not sure how that happened, but Richard has my findings even which feature it is, so i hope it will be founded.

Hallo Herr Gerber, wenn ich Sie richtig verstanden habe, möchten Sie ein bzw. zwei Messattribut(e) (Schicht und Vorrichtung) setzen. Lösungsmöglichkeiten: Auto Importer: Nutzen Sie die Funktion „Ersetzungen" PiWeb Reporting Schnittstelle: Verwenden Sie Regex oder die Funktion IndexOf Bei Fragen: PiWeb Hotline: +49 7364 20 6337 – Wir unterstützen Sie gerne in einer Remote-Session direkt auf Ihrem System.

Hi, You could use a dashboard page and define the data binding there in advance. Then your employees would only need to click on the respective part to navigate to the report for that specific part. Alternatively, with the latest version, you can create a dropdown menu using a text input field with a user-defined list. Then you can change the data binding of the page with a custom variable, part filters, and the hyperlink action "change page data binding." If you need assistance, I would suggest calling the hotline and creating a ticket. We can then offer you remote support.

full code looks like this: positionCMM(5,-5,-5,"Z","Y","X") values are for X Y Z in this order letters are order for execution - first CMM will go to -5 in Z then to -5 in Y then to +5 in X

I also noticed 1 thing - that might solve your issue. I see that you have 80 nominal points (those at least are visible on picture) but you have only 12 points measured. You should have at least 240 of them (approx 3 times nominal usually gives decent results).

My company has been using 2d curves for ages. They strictly use spline, and it seems to work for them. I have not deviated from this to avoid impacting production. I have questioned the Lc value, though, and am interested in others' thoughts.

I have run into this as well and am curious about the fix in your situation. One suggestion that I can provide is that sometimes groups can hold the stylus name in them, even when not all the sub-features are set to the stylus system. You should have stumbled upon this in the MMPE, so I don't believe this helps you. You could try removing any grouped features and regrouping them maybe.

Moin Manuel, Wir fahren unsere MSA auf KMG wie folgt: 1) 50 mal das gleiche Bauteil in gleicher Aufspannung (also ohne Veränderung ). Daraus werden dann die Messabweichung der Maschine und Umgebungseinflüsse dokumentiert 2) 10 Bauteile nummerieren. 3 Personen spannen jeweils 3 Mal alle 10 Bauteile nacheinander ein und aus. Daraus können wir die Einflüsse der Aufspannung sowie Einflüsse verschiedener Personen nachweisen. Gruß Karsten

Hello @Richard Stanich, if you want (and if its allowed to) you can send me the program via PM and i can take i look. Best Regards Marcel

Good afternoon everyone, the disappearing of the latest Patch versions has nothing to do with the Release or delayed release of CALYPSO 2026. A potential BUG is the reason the Patch versions have been taken offline, just as a precaution. The new patches should be online shortly or will be included within the upcoming servicepack (for 8.0). As of now, we don't have the actual release date for CALYPSO 2026, all we know is that it has been postponed due to technical reasons. Best Regards Marcel

I found the probe name in inspset and inspection files, removing those entries caused unexpected results that made the program crash.

If you are using PiWeb reporting - I'm not sure is it possible - You may try to use PCM/Calculated characteristics and play with that. If you have PiWeb SBS/Enterprise you can try to make calculated characteristics on server and test this. On top of that you might try to create pure custom report that suits your needs.

Hello. I think the only solution would be to use PiWeb reporting / PiWeb sbs. Then turn off result output and saving pdf files. Then use PiWeb to output report you require for 1 or for 15 parts.

only Gauss always...

I can confirm - patch for 8.0 disappeared for unknow reason.

Whenever a new version or service pack is due, I always notice that the patches are no longer available for download. At the very least, all patches for version 8.0.12 have disappeared from my download center.

"How to Control Offset Planes To design and inspect two offset, nominally parallel planes so they act as a single functional feature: Use Basic Dimensions: Apply exact, untoleranced (basic) dimensions between the surfaces. Apply Profile Tolerance: Attach a Profile of a Surface symbol (e.g., \bigcirc \mkern-5mu \vert{} \mkern-5mu \bigcirc with a value of 0.05 mm) to the Feature Control Frame (FCF) for both surfaces. This ensures both surfaces are held coplanar within the same tolerance zone GD&T Tips - For Coplanarity Use Profile - Tec-Ease. [1] Add Datums as Needed: Depending on how the planes mate in an assembly, you can orient the profile zone relative to an established datum system, or leave it datainless for free-floating coplanarity" "Common Mistakes to Avoid Using Flatness on Both: If you try to call out individual Flatness on two separate offset surfaces, each surface is evaluated indepenantly. The GD&T specification does not enforce that the two planes be co-planar, parallel, or at the correct basic offset to one another Flatness OR Profile ON Flat Surface. "

Sounds like the stowaway onboard your program is doing a good job at hiding. You've checked the obvious places. Any stones left unturned as pcm in comments or stylus qualifications or shady, dimly lit taverns?

I'm am comfortable with a delay if it supports a smoother, more successful release. Three cheers for the Calypso Dev. Team. We appreciate you!

Thanks Norbert, that seems to have worked.

I heard a rumor it may be delayed - cant say source and idk why, hopefully its for more new cool features ... It is usually released by about now ...

Unfortunately not on the offline seat, our CMM is down for calibration this morning, they are offset by 11.3 mm and the other two are on the same level, I would think there would be an easier way to do it.

To change this for an existing measurement plan, go to the measurement plan features editor, select the section with clearance and retract distances and change the values for the whole plan instead of just selected elements.

I have changed those settings; it has no effect on new features.
