#### Using the Probe Readout window with Vision probes

Probe Readout window

Most information on the Probe Readout window is the same for all probe types and is already discussed in the "Using the Probe Readout Window" topic of the "Using Other Windows, Editors, and Tools"section in the main PC-DMIS help file. However, if you use a Vision probe, these additional readouts appear in the window:

Mag: This value shows the current camera magnification setting. Any changes you make in the Magnification tab are reflected on this line of the Probe Readout window. See the "Probe Toolbox: Magnification tab".

VX / VY / VZ: If you are using a Vision probe, the X, Y and Z values indicate the co-ordinates of the cross hair at the center of the field of view (FOV). The VX, VY and VZ values indicate the feature Target or Gage location with respect to the current alignment.

DX / DY / DZ: The DX, DY and DZ values indicate the difference between the camera and feature position. You must have the Distance to Target option selected in the Probe Readout Setup dialog box for these values to be displayed. For more information, see the "Setting Up the Readout Window" in the "Setting your Preferences"section of the main PC-DMIS help file.

W: Displays the current rotary table axis for a single rotary table.

V: When using a stacked rotary table, the Probe Readout will also show a 'V' value for a second rotary axis.
