Measuring software
For the preparation work and the actual measurements, special software
is required. Examples: CMM-OS (interface software) and CALYPSO (mea-
suring software).
– Please read the corresponding chapters in the operating instructions
for the measuring software before operating it.
Operating mode
A distinction is made between two operating modes: MAN and AUTO.
The two operating modes differ from each other in their maximum pos-
sible travel speed in the CMM axes.
– Travel movements are performed manually using the joysticks on the
control console.
– The maximum travel speed is limited to a certain value.
The travel speed can be reduced by means of the control knob on
the control console.
– Travel movements are performed in an automatic run.
– The maximum travel speed can be reached.
The operating mode is set by means of the key-operated switch on the
controller cabinet.
NOTE
The AUTO operating mode may only be selected for measurement runs
tested previously.
Coordinate systems
There are three coordinate axes corresponding to the travel movements:
X, Y and Z. Together these axes form a machine coordinate system. Ad-
ditional coordinate systems, e.g. a workpiece coordinate system, are re-
quired for exact calculation.
More information can be found in a separate brochure. See Operating
instructions for the measuring software.
