Intermittent changing number of decimals automatically

[[is...]]

 

I have a program that is running for ages without issue. Recently, for some reason the number of decimals in the report becomes 4 digits instead of 3 as it is in mm. Some days it reports in 3 some days 4. Not all programs on this cmm does it.

The program was set in 3 digits as well as the cmm system settings environment.

Any reason for this, and how to fix it?

using Calypso V.6.8 if this helps.

In file "inspset" there is:

• "inDecimalUnit" (integer) - number of decimal point
• "inLengthUnit" (string) - mm/inch

If it's not there, then it can take that from system settings.
If you want to have that fixed, then go to characteristic editor and force this settings of units.

verified it in inspset file, the inLengthUnit is in mm, there is no inDecimalUnit.

verified it in the program under characterisitics it is also in mm and 3 decimal places.

still can't figure out where is the 4 digits coming from once in a while.

I also found "decimalUnits" in "inspset" file.

I have no enough test data to see if you can set different decimal places for each characteristic.

What i see in Calypso - when i enable view of probe, then i see probe in views even in programs which it was not enabled.
So perhaps if it's not set, then some programs can have different settings and it is stored as "default" so any other program, which is not set inside it will use that settings.
