Hi,

I am out of work until january so I am limited in answer.

You open strategy for 2d curve -> click unknown contour -> manually go and touch start and end point ( uknown contours scans only in machine alignment so no tilted planes ) -> select rotation axis and click a few times on direction arrow ( look on CAD for changing arrow - this way it scans )

Depending on a part select 1mm/s scan speed and step width ( 0.02 mm maybe )

After scan go to edit nominals -> move nominal in vector direction and click on probe icon - this will add there exact radius of a probe and make it negative.
Now you should have right nominals. It's recommended to run this curve again to get better reading.
