Reference image for measurement cycles


---

Recommended Posts

Hello everyone, I'm making improvements to my company's measurement programs and routines so that technical staff can run them without needing a metrologist or programmer present. I'm including images of how certain components are positioned and the different fixtures they're mounted on to make measurements easier. Is there a way to display these images before running the program, perhaps through PCM or some other method besides clicking on the measurement cycle information option?

with pcm it is easy. in my inspection folder I have the images (named 1.JPG, 2.JPG ...) and .bat files, that have codes like following:

,@ECHO OFF
"%~dp0\1.JPG"

in the inspection_start_pcm.txt there is this code:

if confirm("Should the images (fixturing instructions) be skipped?"+cr()+cr()+"If "+qm()+"Yes"+qm()+", the measurement program will start immediately,"+cr()+"the measuring part must be clamped!"+cr()+cr()+"If "+qm()+"No"+qm()+", the instructions will be displayed") == false then
 	systemCall(getActualInspectionDir()+"\1.bat")
 	message("Continue with the next picture")
 	systemCall(getActualInspectionDir()+"\2.bat")
 	message("Continue with the next picture")
 	systemCall(getActualInspectionDir()+"\3.bat")
 	message("Continue")
endif

The pictures popping up, must be closed by user

 

parts of the code are translated from German language by google, so it may sond horrible to native English people...
