#### Circle, Pin, or Baricenter with NC-100

NC-100 Circle Auto Feature

The Circle Auto Feature option allows you to define a circle measurement. The three possible measurement types are discussed in "Circle Type Definition with NC-100". If the number of the required points is greater than 10, or if the sensor is not able to identify the intersection points, the sensor selects points on the hole contour and projects them on the plane. These points can be identified using the infrared lines.

To access the Circle option:

1. Access the Auto Features dialog box (
   Insert | Feature | Auto | Circle).

2. Select the Circle auto feature type.

The Edit window command line for a sample circle reads:

F_ID=AUTO/CIRCLE, SHOWHITS=Y/N, SHOWALLPARAMS=Y/N
THEO/ TX,TY,TZ,TI,TJ,TK,TDIAM,
ACTL/ X,Y,Z,I,J,K,DIAM,
TARG/ targX,targY,targZ,targI,targJ,targK
THEO_THICKNESS = n, TOG1, TOG2, TOG3
AUTO MOVE = Y/N, DISTANCE = n
NUM HITS = n
