It shows up like an input comment at executon time. From there you can set variables if you wish. If you want to do attribute I'd recommend an input or better yet a yes no comment.

Wow - I never thought of setting up my attribute inspections with PCDMIS. I have my current attribute inspections done at a seperate station using Datamyte.

I like to use the Keyin for Plug and Feeler gauges when I do Gauge / Fixture certifications.

I use them all the time for hole sizes, and hand checks (radius gages, etc...)
