Exclusion Zone Properties

Properties dialog box - Exclusion Zone

Exclusion Zones define the XY fixturing area where no measurement activity should be performed. For example, the area that is occupied by equipment such as a tool changer should be excluded to avoid collisions in that area. The 2D XY zone is extended infinitely in the Z+ and Z- directions.

- Name: The default name may be used or changed to name of your choice.

- Origin: Defines the XY coordinates of the corner of the defined area.

- Size: The first value represents the X dimension, while the second value represents the Y dimension.
