Rechecking Issue with park position.

[[Mi...]]

This is on version 6.0.28, and a DuraMax with XXT.

Using park position, I have a probe change. All the programs on this CMM start with the same probe system. So by putting the probe system change in park position we avoid stylus not defined issues at program start. Because on XXT if there is a change at the start of a program and the operator starts, then immediately stops the program because they selected the wrong one, you get stylus not defined. We couldn't train that out so putting the probe change in the park position solved it.

But it created a new issue, that again we are trying to train around, but... that's difficult in our facility.

In the pictures, what happens is if they try to recheck (Current Selection) a single position, other circles are needed for calculation so it stops and asks if you want to measure.

Problem is, it goes to the park position, with the probe system change before it asks, and then, because it's now holding the wrong system, it errors out when you hit yes.

If they recheck all the positions it obviously doesn't do this, trying to teach the operators to do that.

But can I just make the CMM measure and report everything required on a recheck without asking?

Otherwise I think I will have to put a probe change in as a command tied to the last feature, but we don't always run full programs that why I used the park position option.

Thanks!
