PCM Post Setting for ZAS

[[Sh...]]

Is there a way to rotate a ZAS head to 0 Degrees via PCM?

Not sure what a ZAS head is? I use this (post settings) to rotate my rotary to zero.

Zeiss Articulating Stylus.  Similar to the RDS but only rotates in one direction.

Shawn, does ZAS have different individual stylus like an RDS? If so, I'd just recommend putting a 'stop' intermediate point with stylus at A0B0 position in the last feature - or perhaps use an 'End Park Position'. With PCM - I suppose we could theoretically 'change Stylus', but not knowing where the probe is when this id changed could be dangerous.

The ZAS behaves the same way as an RDS with CAA turned on. 

I'm sure there is a command to set the stylus angle, but I'm a novice at PCM, so I haven't ran into that yet.

if you have a stylus qualfiied at this angle, we can use PCM to set this stylus active.

 

to actually rotate - I'd have to investigate - probably do-able.

No active stylus. You just set the angle inside of the feature strategy.
