I have been working on fixing some programs at a place i just started at. One thing that i notice in almost ever program that i pull up from the old programmer is that when he checked the profiles whether is it was form and location or form only he almost always origined to the feature and then checked it. The thing that bothers me is that he also measured 90% of these things are checked as scans and the scans were set to master. Now my understanding of master is that the first one check becomes basically the golden part and everything after is check to this first part. The other thing that bothers me is that one part that i have been working on in particular has a slot getting check for form and location and then a tighter tolerance that is checking the form only. If i check it to the datum setup for form and location and then tolerance right after the form only they fail and by the numbers it appears as though everything is getting calculated right. But in this same program (btw these are programs that have been previously written we are just trying to fix them and make them better) when the original program was written he rotated and origined to the slot and when you check the form and location it passes but when you check form only it still fails like it does when you dont align to the feature. This is driving me crazy because there is no way that it can fail form only and pass form and location..... If i need to describe this a little better i will try but that is the long version. And if i am missing something in regards to the scans let me know because i have not used them very much.
Thanks everyone for taking the time to read this, and i really hope someone might have some insight to this.
