OK I am completly baffled and am hoping someone out there can help me with some very basic scripting. I will try my best to explain below what I have done and the problems am I having.
1. I have created a new part with 6 vector points and set up a basic 3-2-1 manual alignment. I have tested this and it works fine
2. I have exported this as a BASIC script.
3. I have imported this BASIC script in to a new empty part.
4. I then run this new program from scratch and the script loads and runs fine and I can manually take the points. The problem I have is that after the alignment, PC Dmis still thinks its in the startup alignment, i.e. when looking at the toolbar at the top its in STARTUP not A0 as I would of expected it to be. If I now try and take a DCC point at say 0,0,0 which should be at my alignment origin, the machine tries to measure this in its home position further clarifying that something in the script is not working and the program still sees itself in the initial startup alignment.
Hope the above is not too vague, any help or suggestions are more than welcome
