Inspection sequence item status reference

Icons in the Sequence Tree indicate an item's measurement and usage status.

  • The item is used in other items in the sequence. You must delete all these referencing items before you can delete this item.
  • The group's points are used in a Best Fit analysis. You must delete the Best Fit item before you can delete this item.
  • The item is unmeasured.
  • The item is measured and within tolerance.
  • The item is measured and one or more results are out of tolerance.
  • The inspection point is measured and above tolerance.
  • The inspection point is measured and below tolerance.
  • The inspection point is measured and within tolerance.
  • The inspection point must be remeasured (for example, if the point has been reset or the part has moved because a best fit has been applied).
  • The item includes points from individual items in the inspection sequence as point sources.
  • The point-cloud feature item includes points from All point clouds or All items in the inspection sequence as point sources.

The following icons indicate the status of alignment items:

  • The alignment is selected in the Active Alignment list.
  • The alignment is active because <last alignment> or <last calculated> is selected in the Active Alignment list.
  • The alignment is active, but is an uncalculated Best Fit item.
  • The alignment is not active.

The following information may be displayed when you click to show the details of an item:

  • (User-specified). The value was entered manually. For example, this is displayed when you have typed the Offset/Thickness for a Circle item.
  • (Calculated). The measurement is calculated by PowerInspect. For example, this is displayed when you have selected Calculate From Measurement for the Offset/Thickness value of an item.
  • <Not Measured>. The value has not been measured.
  • <INVALID>. The value cannot be calculated. For example, if you create a Points Intersection Line/Circle item using a circle and line that do not intersect, PowerInspect displays <INVALID> in place of the point locations.
Note: PowerInspect displays tolerance indicators only when Use Nominals is selected in the item's dialog. When this check box is selected, the item's Output In Report settings determine which tolerance indicator is displayed. If any out-of-tolerance measurements are included in the report, the item is shown with an out-of-tolerance icon and label border. If no out-of-tolerance measurements are included, the item is shown with in-tolerance indicators, even when some measurements are out of tolerance.
