Pictures to measurment plan

[[Ja...]]

Is there a way to add pictures to the measurement plan to pop up before the plan start to assure the part is in the correct place?

I only know how to do this in autorun. Are you using autorun?

[[Ja...]]

I'm not sure. I click run every time.

Yes, after you hit "Run", find the tab "User Information". It will give you the file path to upload pictures, setup sheets, etc. Once you upload your file, when you click "user Information", your pictures will open up for the operator.

I link setup sheet .pdf's in the user information area like Mark mentioned. Here are some screenshots.

You can use a batch file in your plan folder.

If the batch file name is...
"inspection_post_load.bat" the picture will show up when you open the plan
"inspection_pre_start_dialog.bat" the picture will show up when you press the CNC-Start button
"inspection_start.bat" the picture will show up when you start measuring

Example to show a picture with the CZViewer:

@ECHO OFF
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Zeiss\Calypso\opt\om\bin\winnt\czviewer.exe" X:\Userinfo\MY_PICTURE.jpg
("Path_to_CZViewer" Path_to_picture.jpg)

to show a picture with the Windows Viewer:

@ECHO OFF
X:\Userinfo\MY_PICTURE.jpg

You can also show pdf, video or whatever you like
more info at Calypso-help (F1 button)
search for "batch"

Is there a way to turn of the User Information instructions after you've turned it on?

[[Mi...]]

Yes,there is one, but not in Calypso

Close your plan.
Open the plan folder.
Edit the file "inspset" with (windows)editor and
delete the part

#(
#graphicUserInfo ' ->' 'path_to_picture.jpg')

if you use autorun, do the same at file "autoruninf"

[[Er...]]

You could also do this if you have pcm and like to edit while program is open.

settingPut("graphicUserInfo","")

It's also possible to define.

settingPut("graphicUserInfo","c:\nakedstuff\samanthafox.jpg")
