Data capture
Roll tuning
When ‘Start’ is selected the system will perform a calibration cycle on the roll
detection scheme to compensate for the set-up conditions.
Sign detection
To ensure the errors of the machine are measured with the correct sign
(+/−) it is important that the co-ordinate system of the XM (X,Y,Z and their
directions) is labelled according to that of the machine. Further details on
sign detection can be found in
There are two methods of sign detection:
•
Automatic
Part programs produced with CARTO will perform machine moves to
detect the sign.
•
Manual
The user can manually jog the machine ±150 µm in each axis when
prompted by the software to perform sign detection.
NOTE:
Users can skip an axis if there are not three perpendicular axes.
Further details can be found in the
CARTO Capture
user guide (Renishaw
part no. F-9930-1007) for details.
On completion of these steps the system will start capturing data.
