### Measuring a Round Slot with NC-100

PC-DMIS allows several methods for measuring a round slot using the Auto Feature option. These methods are listed in the following paragraphs as:

Using Keyed in Data

This is described in "Using Keyed in Data for a Round Slot" in the "Creating Auto Features" section.

Using Surface Data on the Screen

This is described in "Using Surface Data on the Screen for a Round Slot" in the "Creating Auto Features" section.

Note: If the CAD data defining the ends of the slot is specifically a CIRCLE or ARC type (i.e., an IGES entity 100), PC-DMIS will automatically take two additional hits on the arc. If both ends are of this type, then one touch on each arc is sufficient to measure this feature type.

Using Wire frame Data on the Screen

This is described in "Using Wire frame Data on the Screen for a Round Slot" in the "Creating Auto Features" section.

Note: The mouse cannot be used in the Graphics Display window if CAD data is unavailable.
