Chapter 6 System Setup<br />

Probe Rack Settings screen<br />

6 - 86<br />

The Probe Rack Settings screen provides tools for calibrating the storage locations<br />

of touch probe tips in a rack of 4 or 6 probe tip ports. Probe rack calibration<br />

should be performed immediately after rack installation.<br />

Probe tips housed in the probe rack can be exchanged during inspections according<br />

to need. For example, a probe rack allows the user to switch from a<br />

single probe tip to a star probe tip.<br />

All probe transitions must occur through the appropriate established methods.<br />

Never manually change a probe tip or place/remove probes from ports in the<br />

rack. Valid probe transitions can be set in the Probe Library dialog box by selecting<br />

the probe you wish to switch to, then clicking the Set Current button.<br />

Proper probe transitions can also be included in a program.<br />

If at any time, during normal operation or while a program is executing, the<br />

QC-<strong>5000</strong> fails to correctly perform a probe change, then the affected probes<br />

will need to be unloaded from the probe rack, and then reloaded.
