Probe Qualification Process

When qualifying the first stylus, Geomet maintains that position as the reference position for the entire stylus database. When adding additional styli, Geomet maintains the location relationship between the newly qualified stylus and the first stylus. This relationship is applied when setting any stylus active and allows correct compensation to use any qualified position, even in the same feature, without loss of accuracy.

Stylus Manager Sub Menu Tools

There exists a sub menu that can be called up to react directly with the list of existing stylus records. To activate the sub menu, right-click in the list area and the sub menu will appear.

Through the sub menu you have access to three functions. These are:

All three functions work on the highlighted stylus, but only the Delete Stylus has more than one feature. When a stylus is highlighted, the delete function will delete only that stylus. When there are no stylus selected, the delete will clear all stylus information from the database. To view the functionality of all sub menu functions, please choose from a selection below.
