[Cl...] Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 Do you just need to know how to name the stylus, or do you need complete instruction on probe qualification? Z- (if you had one) would be #1, Y+ stylus would be named #2, X+ would be #3, Y- would be #4, X- would be #5 Link to comment https://qualityforum.zeiss.com/topic/14714-star-probe/#findComment-77666 Share on other sites More sharing options...

[Cl...] Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 Go to CMM tab > Stylus system icon > pick up the MasterProbe > Choose the Reference sphere > choose Ref. sphere position (click the rotation and angle that matches your actual sphere). Click Qualify stylus > follow the prompts to qualify your MP. Pick up the star probe > click Qualify stylus (manually qualify each styli).

[Cl...] Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 OK, I see. In that case I name my stylus (for example) 90.0_45.0_Y+_1.0 That indicates an A rotation of 90, a B rotation of 45, and the 1.0 stylus facing Y+ Link to comment https://qualityforum.zeiss.com/topic/14714-star-probe/#findComment-77680 Share on other sites More sharing options...
