Terminating the measuring operation
What you should know!
If you put the CMM out of operation, the following data will be lost:
– Home position
– Information about the current valid coordinate system
When starting the machine again, a homing run has to be carried out.
The desired workpiece coordinate system must be called again in the
software.
Shutting down the CMM
After the CMM has been shut down, the probe remains in its last posi-
tion. The probe's position coordinates are lost. To avoid malfunctions
when the CMM is put back into operation, the measuring operation
should be finished correctly.
– Proceed in the described order.
1 Move the probe to a safe position.
This position must be inside the measuring volume. Prepare for the
next CMM start by positioning the probe close to the home position.
2 Move the probe holder to its initial position.
— Turn the articulating system to the 0°/0° position.
3 Close the measuring software.
4 Shut down the operating system.
