  1. Automation Solutions • Scott Sandwith • ApplicationsEngineer • New RiverKinematics Art Poley Developer New River Kinematics

  2. Automation: Introduction (brief, so we can get into examples) • Automation Solutions • Template Files • Toolkit (GD&T, Relationships, Inspect, Analysis, Report) • MPs (Setup, Acquisition, Analysis, Reporting, Archive) • SDK (C++, VB, Other Languages) • Interfaces • Simple MP • Task Overview • SA Button Control • HTML • Open Instrument • Examples • MP • SDK • Questions

  3. Automation: SA Template Files (Key for Automation) • User Options (Vector Group Settings, Screen, Backups etc.) • Customize SA Menus and Toolbars • Imported Nominals • Points, CAD, Frames etc. • Setup • NAMING CONVENTION • Relationships • Feature Checks and Datums • Dimensions • Report Templates • Embed MP’s • Instrument Stations • Positions • Measurement Profiles • Targeting Offset n SA Template Files Input: Different Parts SA MPs Common Process Solution Output: Consistent Results

  4. Toolkit Automation (covered in other sessions) • GD&T (Imported with CAD – Constructed) • Relationships • Inspection • Analysis • Reporting

  5. Measurement Plans • MP = Scripts of functions • Yikes, there are a lot of functions. Which is nice. • MP functions • Arguments (Input and Output) • Return Status • SA Data Types (make things easier) • Looping, Conditional Tests, Runtime Input and Feedback • Subroutines, Variables, • Data Exchange via ASCII, Excel, ODBC

  6. Simple MP: Relationship Fit and Report • Shade • Make Relationship • Optimize • Set POV • Set Analysis Options • Create VG • Report • MPs Auto Upgrade

  7. Create an MP from scratch • Duplicate circles on a series of points • Ask User to ‘Select Circle to Duplicate’ • Ask User to ‘Select Points’ • Get number of points • Loop • Copy Circle • End

  8. Automation: SA Button with HTML

  9. SDK • Enables embedded integration SA functionality • Connect to SA via MP interface • MP provides stub code in C++ and VB • Direct data exchange between SA and Integration App
