## Using Inspection Plans in PC-DMIS

To use inspection plans in PC-DMIS consult the "Using Inspection Plans PC-DMIS Core help file.

following topics describe how to use the functionality added to PC-DMIS to automatically create a part program from your Inspection Plan. To create your part program you need to do the following:

- Define PC-DMIS Planner Parameters and Rules

- Import the Inspection Plan you exported from your CAD package.

- Perform an optimization step on the imported plan,

- Ensure that the probe won’t collide with the part by inserting proper move commands.

Once you have completed these simple tasks, you can then execute your imported inspection plan as a newly created PC-DMIS part program.

If you have problems using the PC-DMIS Planner commands inside PC-DMIS, ensure that there is an InsPlan.dll file located in the directory where you installed PC-DMIS.

PC-DMIS Planner Default File (.ipd)

You must have an PC-DMIS Planner Default file, or (.ipd) to import an Inspection Plan into PC-DMIS. The "PC-DMIS Planner Parameters and Rules" topic provides more information on this file.

The IP Measure option must be enabled on your portlock to use the PC-DMIS Planner capabilities that are discussed in this section.
