Accessing temperature values from CMM axis sensors

Recommended Posts

I'm trying to get readings from the temperature sensors that I assume my 2014-model Contura has on its Cartesian axes. The startup status says it's internally processing those corrections, rather than the "not available or inactive", so that makes me think they're in there. If that's true, are they accessible from within Calypso? Using the getTemperatureCorrection() PCM command for the XYZ axes is just returning a flat 20, which I know isn't the ambient temperature.

Your Contura likely does not have individual axis or workpiece sensors. Even if it did, there would be no software correction on the axes because the scale coefficients on your machine are zero. Your PCM command is pulling the axis temperatures correctly, it’s just that they will always return 20 because you don’t have the hardware.
