Groove
The Groove tool provides measurements of V-shape, U-shape, or open-shape grooves. Gocator
compares the measurement value with the values in Min and Max to yield a decision. For more
information on decisions, see Decisions on page 191.
See Adding and Configuring a Measurement Tool on page 182 for instructions on how to add
measurement tools.
The Groove tool uses a complex feature-locating algorithm to find a groove and then return
measurements. See "Groove Algorithm" in the Gocator Measurement Tool Technical Manual for a
detailed explanation of the algorithm. The behavior of the algorithm can be adjusted by changing the
parameters in the measurement panel.
The Groove tool lets you add multiple measurements of the same type to receive measurements and set
decisions for multiple grooves. Multiple measurements are added by using the drop-down above the list
of measurements and clicking on the Add button.
For example, if a target has three grooves, by adding two measurements, choosing Index From The
Left in the SelectType setting of those measurements, and providing values of 0 and 2 in the Index
setting of the measurements, respectively, the Groove tool will return measurements and decisions for
the first and third grooves.
