#### Calibrate the Touch Trigger Probe

First, you will need to calibrate your touch trigger probe. It needs to be calibrated in a least two positions (although depending on your system, you may have three).

Three-Axis Probe

You should use the following positions for machine configurations and gage orientations:

- A0B0C0

- A90B180C0

The process of creating a new touch trigger probe file and calibrating the touch trigger probe type is already covered in the "Defining Probes" topic of the "Defining Hardware" chaptersection in the PC-DMIS Core help file. Refer to that topic if you need additional information.

Follow the steps below to complete this phase of the calibration .
