Back to VTube-STEP

VTube uses the Split Bend feature as a powerful way to handle large angle bends. The feature is simple to use, and allows you to scan a large sample of data to ensure that the calculates are precise.

When a split bend is used to create a straight in the middle of a bend, VTube-LASER automatically assumes that the split bends should be re-combined into one bend in all bend data charts.

Previous versions of VTube always assumed that operators meant to connect to a FARO arm. This causes the interface to pause repeatedly while it tries to reconnect to the arm that is not present.

Now VTube will assume that operators should control when to connect to the arm in the Measure Setup pane.

The button is in the new tab menu called "Arm." When the arm is not connected, the button will read Connect to the Arm. When the arm is connected to VTube, then the button will read Disconnect from the Arm.

The disconnect will let operators disconnect from arms to move arms away or switch arms.

Just as in previous versions, it is not necessary to disconnect the arm when exiting the software.

• This feature allows you to reset the datum of the first row of coordinates to zero.

• Now add rows after the current row in Master XYZ data. This allows users to add a row after the last row of XYZ coordinates.

• The Save Project Before Continuing window now has a third button added that allows you to Cancel the operation that would lose the current project changes. This allows operations like project file load or program close to be stopped.

• The Data Handling menu has been updated to include the Split Bend feature.

• The MASTER XYZ grid popup menu now includes the Add after this XYZ Row feature to allow operators to add XYZ rows after the last row.

• No known issues
