Adapting the user interface to the measurement functions
The following selection options can be switched-in or switched-out:
● Calibration plane, measurement plane
● Work offsets
● Probe numbers
● Offset target, adjustable work offset
● Offset target, basic reference
● Offset target, global basic work offset?
● Offset target, channel-specific basic work offset?
Prerequisite
● No function-related settings are necessary after the measuring cycles have been
● Define the user-specific settings using the appropriate parameters.
Measuring sequence
To obtain the desired measuring results, you must keep to the measuring point sequence
shown in the help displays.
You can reject measuring points and then measure them again. This is done by pressing the
softkey that is currently active (measured value).
Measuring only
If you "only" want to measure the workpiece zero, the measured values are calculated and
displayed without changing the coordinate system.
Work offset
You usually store the measured workpiece zero in a work offset. With HMI sl you can
measure rotations and offsets.
