Hello, we have a AtosQ attached to a Scanport. I am trying to build processes, that are actually fast and foolproof for non admin users, so i am having a look at the kiosk mode. So far - even for very simple parts - it is not really an option, because i can`t find a way to implement a kiosk-program, that is not overall way slower, than just starting inspect in two instances one for capturing the meshes and one for the evaluation of the stages. The challenges i face: After every part i have to start from the beginning: Serialnr., temperature etc. Is there a way to to get a prompt for the number of parts/stages that have to be measured? Is there a way to get all parts into one report? Thank you in advance for your input.

Hallo zusammen, gibt es schon evtl. die Eistellung für: Quader Größe der automatischen Selektion beim polygonisieren einstellen? VG Alexander Eichholz Metallgießerei W-Funke

Wie lässt sich die im Bild dargestellte Zeichnungsanforderung mittels ZEISS Inspect Optical 3D umsetzen?

What @Richard Shomaker said.

Good Morning Matthew, if you're running the base Version 7.8.00, my first suggestion would be the latest ServicePack, just like Windows, a lot of BUGs get fixed with each Pack. If that doesnt help i would contact your local Software Support and send them the ErrorReport. Best Regards Marcel

It has been a while since I have tried to locating the rack with something other then the MasterProbe but I don't believe it's a requirement to use the MasterProbe. As long as you perform the "Define Stylus Length" prior to then locating the holder I believe it will let you use whatever length of stylus you have. It may prompt you asking if the MasterProbe is active but I want to say you can work past that. You may want to make sure to use a stylus diameter similar to that of the MasterProbe however. For example XXT's require ~2.5 radius stylus. Again it has been a little while since I tried this myself so it may be a good idea to back up your CALYPSO config prior to doing so for an easy restore - CALYPSO: How to Backup CALYPSO Config.

Thank you, Richard. We were troubleshooting an issue this past week where we were using the 2023 GDT Engine, and this situation came up. We assumed the beta version had a glitch regarding orientation. Now we know.

I think they disabled that. Either way - that change probably didn't make it to 2024. I do believe someone else posted a workaround.

Hi Richard. I'm using 2024, SP3. I put it in my sig line but it's not showing in my posts for some reason.

@Justin StevensDo you care if it is checked after the base alignment features? Or are you looking to do this before it even touches the part? If the former, then there is a way to use PCM to only do it on pallet location 1. 1. Program as normal. 2. Add your artifact measurement and place it after the base alignment features. 3. Set up a miniplan for that artifact measurement and regular inspection ("Artifact and Norm"). 3.1 You will need a characteristic for the artifact, of course. 4. Set up a miniplan for regular inspection ("Norm"), skipping the artifact measurement. 5. In the program Presetting, add in the PCM below There are probably other methods too. PltNum=getRecordHead("palletlocationnumber") if PltNum=="1" then setRunID("Artifact and Norm") endif if PltNum<>"1" then setRunID("Norm") endif

@Keith Forche I believe this is the air release.

@Zen Cat What version are you on? I believe this was removed in Service Pack 2 of 2025.

I believe you can adjust the default names here: C:\Users\Public\Documents\Zeiss\CALYPSO\data\config\NamePatternsDefault

It must be these.... they push out the rollers. The Z axis does move "more freely", but it is still tight and makes a screaching sound when the mast is moved...

I really like the new GDT engine and the Position characteristic. I don't need to create separate diameter characteristics before using Position as they are created inside of the GDT Position characteristic. That's good. What I don't like is the default name it gives them: ^Diameter for Cylinder yada yada yada... Is there a way to change this name? It runs into/cuts off on the results page anyway and just looks ugly on the report. Thank you

Ah that's right. I know there is a switch under the dust cover along the Y axis, but I don't remember what that does either. 😄

That toggle is only releasing X & Y

I think it's just the one switch to the right of the Z mast. I also have not heard of the two switch arrangement so I'm learning too lol.

I guess I'm learning something new today... "Two Switches"? I really don't want to "adjust" the wrong thing....Can you mark up this image?

I just happened to have a Zeiss tech here. He says you have to take the cover off and there are two switches you can turn 90 degrees to release the rollers. Said to be careful and make sure you don't let it fall. He also said contura's are sensitive to getting debris on those rollers which could cause what you're seeing.

I don't have a contura, but on my accura, there is a button that releases the air, you get to it thru a hole in the housing or just take the cover off. On my Micura's, you can just pull it down with the drives off

Oh yeah, I forgot about the moving the Z shaft!

On startup it connects and the popup to Home comes up.... click, and the drives shut off. Is there a release for the Z axis? The toggle only releases the X & Y

I'd try to pull the Z column down (with the drives off) then rehome it. Don had a good point, are you able to home it?
