[An...] Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 I have a program that uses a patter to measure a series of holes. I want to make a mini plan to only check my first and last hole. I tried to make a mini plan using characteristics that only use first/ last hole, but when I run the mini plan it probes every single hole in the patter and only has the first/last in the report. Is this possible? Or will Calypso always measure every iteration in a pattern if any one part of that pattern is referenced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[An...] Posted February 11 Author Share Posted February 11 Just kidding. I had an alignment I didn't account for activating the entire pattern. Selecting the specific iteration of the pattern does run just that iteration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[No...] Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 You can also specify the elements to be measured in the pattern definition dialog, separated by semicolons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Da...] Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 Also, if you just delete those parts you don't want from the Characteristics window, it won't measure them. I guess as long as the pattern of holes isn't a datum, that should work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[To...] Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 Right-click on the feature and select "Check use of selected feature". It will list every characteristic, alignment, construction that uses that circle. If your mini-plan includes any of those items, other than the one related to only the 1st and last circle, that's probably why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
