2 Exit the application

3 Shut down the PC

4 Turn off the CMM

5 Turn off the air pressure (depend on the company)

6 Turn off the air dryer (depend on the company)

Notes:- If the controller key pad does not show A650, refer to Troubleshoot tips during startup

1.3 To Check the Driver Setting

Click Settings - CMM Driver System (Geopak)

Measurement device ==> refer to the machine model - eg UC200-DLL is the

latest driver for most of the CMM, EURO-C is for Bright, Beyond, Beyond Apex & BLN Series, EURO-M

is for BH-V Series, CMMC-6 is for BHN Series,Probe System ==> refer to the probe model - eg PH9/10 (RS232C) is most

commonly use in CMM, PH8 are for manual probe head, SP80 are for scanning probe head Note: If there

is no probe system being defines during calibration it can only be done manually

Measurement should be taken from the center of the probe to the ruby ball

Tool Charger System ==> refer to the probe tree (only required for those who

purchase the additional accessories)

Rotary Table ==> refer to the rotary table (only required for those who

purchase the additional accessories)

Optical System ==> refer to the optical system (only required for those who

purchase the additional accessories)Setting ==> refer to a detail setup for the machine movement and

3 Introduction to Learn Mode

3.1 Three Different Ways to Startup Learn Mode

 Start up Wizard : This is a 4 steps guide that guides you

through the CNC programming We normally set this as the default (it can also

be configure up to 10 steps)

 Initialization dialogs : This is a 2 steps guide that allow you to

define the probe and set the Part Coordinator System (PCS)

 No “Start up Wizard” or “Init

Dialogs”

: No guide and no dialog box

1 Click Settings - Startup Wizard Configuration, a dialog box will appear as shown

2 Select Start-up Wizard (default setting)

3 Click OK

3.2 Where to change the unit setting?

1 Settings - Input Characteristics, a dialog box will appear as shown

2 Select the unit (eg inch)

3 Click OK

Note: Unit cannot be change once measurement is taken In another words, there should not be any commands in the field for results windows if you need to change the unit Thestatus bar will show the define unit

3.3 Parts of the Probe

For auto probe head, you have to define the swivel length of the probe by using the probebuilder Let’s look at the parts of the probe

(9) Stylus - ( eg (M2)PS2R - measure the stylus length & diameter in order to determine

the part name)

3.4 Probe Data Management

3.4.1 To Setup the Probe System

If you need to set the probe with an angle (eg A=60 & B=-90), you have to determine the swivel length Normally, user will prepare a list of probe(s) so that they can calibrate the entire probe list when the machine is power on and use it for all parts throughout the day This is only applicable for auto machine As for manual machine, every time when you change the probe angle you should calibrate the probe

If your startup learn mode is using startup wizard, click exit and calibrate, a dialog box will appear as shown

1 Click Probe Builder, a dialog box will appear as shown

2 To remove the current configuration, click to set the probe sys empty

3 Then select a probe head from the top-right list box, and click or double click on the component Repeat this step until a complete probe system configuration

is finished

4 Then click OK to save your configuration Look at the title bar it will show the new swivel length value (eg swivel length=132.000)

3.4.2 To Create Probe(s) with Different Angles

For manual probe head, you have to manually adjust the probe angle and set the probe list

by using the Define Probe Button method and use manual calibration (Refer to 3.4.4.1 For Manual Calibration )

-For auto probe head, following are a few methods you can use to set the probe at a

different angle(s)

 Use the T-Controller

 Use Define Probe Button

 Use New Button
