Planner

I can not get the RDS XXT or any object to show in Planner nor the proper stylus direction.
Any help with this is greatly appreciated.

Planner developed styli do not align with any feature I select from any model from any program or from a new program with any model.


This is creating programs that appear to have correct geometry, but when ran on a CMM, the styli wont even come close to the actual programmed values.

How do I correct this?

First things first. Go to Resources > Utilities > Set Base Alignment to Zero.

If that doesn't fix the problem, then open the Simulation window Click lower right icon (modify cad model). Select model and choose Rotation Axis and Angle amount. Then, Apply. Some versions of Calypso may require you to close and re-open Simulation window for graphics to refresh.

This didn't help.
I had to copy a "config" folder from the working CMM (Online) to the Offline seat.
Then stay away from Stylus System Creator.

This is a software issue when using RDS XXT sensors that I have brought to Zeiss via email.
Germany is supposedly working on this, it may have been an issue as far back as v6.6.

I remember having this issue at my last job with the RDS for Contura. I remember an Applications Engineer remoting in to my PC and finding that something went wrong with the Master Probe. He ended up fixing it for me but I can't remember how or what he did. Full circle to where I work now and I'm seeing the same stinking problem with our Planner for our Accura machine.

Zeiss attempted a Master Probe fix, it did not work out properly.
Then via email another fix was sent, it still did not work out properly.

I cant take the chance again of programs having bad geometry due to SCC files until this is resolved.
