Hello everyone. I'm fairly new to PC DMIS so please bear with me.
I have a program for a part that has a feature with a slot that has a .020 mm tolerance on the width of the slot. Since this is a pretty tight tolerance, we have the operators check this feature at the machine using a physical go/ no go gauge.
Normally in my CMM report this dimension agrees with the physical gauge as far as the part being in or out of tolerance. However, there are times where the CMM reports the slot being .001 mm out, for example, but the part checks fine with the physical go/no go gauge.
I want to be able to use an IF statement in my program to be able to prompt the operator to check the part with the physical gauge if the CMM check reports this feature being out and then use a keyin dim for the report rather than what the CMM measured.
How would I go about doing this?
