Manipulating Sites
The following options are available for site setup:
• Create—Create a new site file.
• Modify—Modify parameters of a site. Select a site name from the menu. The editor window comes up with the current site parameters.
• Retrieve—Retrieve an existing site file from disk. Select a site name from the browser.
• Save—Save a site file to disk. Select a site name from the menu. You have to save a site in order to use it in other CMM models.
• Delete—Delete a site. Select a site name from the menu, then confirm that you really want to delete the site. If the site has been used by a Measure step, the system will issue a warning. If you delete such a site, all measure parameters inherited from this site will be treated as customized (non-inherited). See the help topic on Parameter Inheritance for more information.
• Where Used—Provide information about the Measure steps that inherit parameters from the specified site.
• Activate—Activate a site file. Parameters of an activated site will automatically be substituted as the system defaults when creating new Measure steps. Another way of activating sites is associating them with the workcell.
• Show—Display information about an existing site. Select a site name from the menu.
