[Ma...] Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Does anyone happen to know what the formula would be to extract the X value from a Profile into a Result Element? The X value I want would be the one shown when additional printout is turned on. Also, what exactly does this X value on the additional printout represent? Any help understanding this would be much appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Ma...] Posted August 26, 2019 Author Share Posted August 26, 2019 The profile I am working with is only calculated on the X axis. Y and Z axis nominals and actual are identical. I originally thought the additional printout would be showing the extreme point on the X axis but it does not calculate to my profile result. Can anyone help me understand what this value represents? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Ne...] Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 Marc, The x,y,z of the point on the additional printout should be the extreme point. if you go into the profile characteristic in the upper right hand corner were is says graphic you can look at the point list. You will have to select point list and then go out and back in to generate it. The point that is the most extreme either min or max should be listed as the point on the additional printout. I do not know how to get this point into a formula in result element. Neil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[Ma...] Posted August 27, 2019 Author Share Posted August 27, 2019 Thank you for the replies. If this X value is the extreme point then it's deviation from nominal multiplied by 2 should be my profile result. This isn't always the case as shown in the attachment. It is also not the max or min point in the point list. Would you happen to have any ideas what could be causing this to happen? I should mention that when I run this program on our Contura the extreme x-value multiplied by 2 does not equal the profile, but running a copy of the same program on our Micura it does. I have dug into this and haven't found any differences with the program. Possibly some default global setting on the Contura changed?CaptureProfile.JPG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Ma...] Posted August 30, 2019 Author Share Posted August 30, 2019 I still can't find an answer why the x value multiplied by 2 does not equal the profile result. Anyone have any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
