#### The Execute Dialog Box

This dialog box appears when the gear measurement process interfaces with PC-DMIS and begins measuring the gear.

Execute dialog box

Status: This area and the colored icon above it indicate the status of the measurement process. A green icon means execution is proceeding normally. A red icon means there's an error or execution has been stopped manually.

Message: This displays instructions and other messages regarding the current measurement process.

Display XYZ: This button displays a digital readout of the XYZ location of the probe during the measurement process:

Hide XYZ: This button hides the digital readout of the probe's XYZ location.

Erase hit: To remove the current hit, simply click the Erase Hit button. Most CMM jog boxes have a button assigned to erasing the last hit. Pressing that button on the CMM's jog box while in Execute mode, produces the same result as clicking the Erase Hit button on the dialog box.

Stop: This command button halts the probe at its current position and suspends execution of the part program. This option will not stop the part program execution if the current move is a PH9 orientation change. The program will stop after the PH9 has stopped.

Continue: This button allows you to resume execution of a part program halted by a CMM motion error, or the Stop button.

Cancel: This cancels the measurement process and closes the Execute dialog box.
