For more information on geometric features, see Geometric Features on page 190.
Parameter Description
Source The sensor, or combination of sensors, that provides data
for the tool's measurements. For more information, see
Source on page 183.
Regions The region to which the tool's measurements will apply. For
more information, see Regions on page 184.
Filters The filters that are applied to measurement values before
they are output. For more information, see Filters on page
192.
Decision The Max and Min settings define the range that determines
whether the measurement tool sends a pass or fail decision
to the output. For more information, see Decisions on page
191.
Parameters
Anchor Description
X, Y, or Z Lets you choose the X, Y, or Z measurement of another tool
to use as a positional anchor for this tool.
Anchoring
A measurement must be enabled in the other tool for it to be available as an anchor. The anchor
measurement should also be properly configured before using it as an anchor.
For more information on anchoring, see Measurement Anchoring on page 194.
Position
The Position tool reports the X, Y, or Z position of a part. The feature type must be specified and is one
of the following: Average (the mean X, Y, and Z of the data points), Median (median X, Y, and Z of the
data points), Centroid (the centroid of the data considered as a volume with respect to the z = 0 plane),
Min X, Max X, Min Y, Max Y, Min Z, or Max Z.
Gocator compares the measurement value with the values in Min and Max to yield a decision. For more
information on decisions, see Decisions on page 191.
See Adding and Configuring a Measurement Tool on page 182 for instructions on how to add
measurement tools.
