4 Touch the properties tab, and then touch Reset to clear any
offset or size values.
5 Touch the Teach button to begin a probe qualification ses-
sion. Perform the probe qualification by collecting 5 points on
the qualification sphere; 4 around the center and 1 at the top.
Press the Finish key to complete the qualification.
The properties tab will show the probe tip size and all offset val-
ues will be zero.
6 Adjust the indexable probe position to
A = 90° and B = 0°. Do not change the
probe position values in the Selector tab.
7 Touch the Teach button to initiate a second probe qualification session.
Do not reset values in the Properties tab data fields.
8 Perform a new probe qualification with the indexable probe oriented in
the 90° position, and then press the Finish button.
9 The Z -offset value shown in the Properties tab is the stack length of the
indexable probe. Other offset values are not important in this procedure.
Enter the Z -offset value into the Stack Length value field and touch the Reset
button to clear all offset and size values.
10 Now that the approximate stack length is
known to the system, additional probe qualifica-
tions must be performed for:
A = 0 B = 0
A = 90 B = 90
A = 90 B = 0
A = 90 B = - 90
A = 90 B = 180
11 Upon completion of all probe qualifications, restart the QC-330 by cycling the power from on to off
and back to on.
The final precise stack length will be shown in the Probe setup screen.
