The customer calibrated the ball probe (it passed spec) and then calibrated the laser probe. It did not pass spec. However, it did calibrate to 0.0675 mm (0.0027") - which is very good for tube fabrication.  The customer saved the calibration results anyway and continued.

CUSTOMER ISSUE

OUR DISCOVERY

The FARO driver has a new Movement Filter option that has an impact on scanning whether or not is enabled.

SOLUTION

In this screen image of the Probe Management window, we show that the Movement Filter is disabled, and the value of the filter is set to ZERO.

It is critical to have a non-zero value in the Movement Filter box on the right. In this case, we enabled the option, then slid the slider all the way to the right, then disabled the option.
