Chapter 6: Maintenance and Troubleshooting
• In CAM2 Gage, run TEMPERATURE command from the
GAGE menu and monitor the temperature in the
T
EMPERATURE dialog box.
• For more information, see “Temperature” on page 65.
Do not compensate probes during warm-up time.
Probe Setup
Check probe seating.
Install by hand.
Tighten with the 12mm wrench.
Verify that the probe has no chips or cracks, is not loose,
and that it has no flat spots.
Probe Compensation
Place the compensation cone approximately 2/3 of the
Gage's reach away from its base.
Perform the probe compensation at least 3 times. For more
information, see “Hole Method” on page 60.
Look in the probe compensation log and compare the X, Y
and Z values. Each value should repeat to within the
accuracy of the device.
N
OTE: If one person is able to repeat better than another person, review probe
compensation procedure. A “green light” does not guarantee a good probe
