GD&T Position

I'm pretty sure I understand how to do this but I'd like to hear what anybody else thinks.

The part is shaped like a ring gage. The top plane is Datum A, the id is Datum B. No tertiary datum.

There are 2 holes, perpendicular to A. One at 12 o'clock and the other at 6 o'clock. They have a .001 position callout with MMC to A and B (MMB)

No. The shape of the tolerance zone is diametral in XY, so the position of the tolerance zone is fixed by the secondary datum, so no translation allowed. Translation in Z is fixed by the primary datum, and even if it weren’t, the result would be the same.

In this case, due to the use of View Tolerance and the MMB... Rotation and Translation should be allowed as I understand it.

You want it to be able to move within whatever bonus the size of B is giving you.

Pg. 53 of the cookbook has this exact callout, and it's where my answer comes from.

Now I'm confused, I've thought that because XY is locked with Datum B, the translation is not allowed, but there is an option that it's allowed anyway due to MMB? I've thought MMB is applied because its chosen in position window, regardless of translation switch in best fit screen.

I don't have a current cookbook. Would you be willing to share a pic?

I would, but I'm actually quite certain big brother Zeiss has a big problem with people sharing parts of the paid-for training materials. They want their cut.

Do you have an idea where I may purchase a new copy of the cookbook? I do not have one at all right now and would like to have one. Thanks.

This is correct.
Since tolerance best fit is selected in OP's print screen the bestfit will be limited to what the MMB on secondary datum (labeled MMC in Calypso) allows.
