Safety instructions indicate a personal health hazard. We distinguish three

different levels: Danger, warning and caution. All three safety instructions

are marked with the same warning symbol. The designation of the safety

instruction is shown beside the symbol. The safety instructions used are

described below.

Configuration of a safety instruction

A safety instruction may have the following components:

Warning symbol and designation of the safety instruction (signal

word): Danger, warning or caution.

Source and cause of the danger

Consequences for the user due to non-observance of the safety in-

struction

Required measures to be taken by the user to avoid possible conse-

quences

A measure may cause an intermediate result.

At the end of all measures, a final result may be caused.

Personal health hazard

DANGER

A danger indicates an imminent risk to life and limb.

Non-observance of this safety instruction when the described risk occurs

causes death or serious injuries.

Example: Electric shock due to high electric voltage.

WARNING

A warning indicates a possible risk to life and limb.

Non-observance of this safety instruction when the described risk occursmay cause death or serious injuries.

Example: Risk of severe crushing of the body caused by heavy loads.

CAUTION

A caution indicates a personal health hazard.

Non-observance of this safety instruction when the described risk occurs

may cause slight to moderate injuries.

Example: Risk of minor crushing of the limbs caused by small loads.

Risk of material damageIf there is no personal health hazard, but the CMM or components may

get damaged, this is pointed out by the following notice.




29/1049

This symbol refers to possible damage to the CMM.

Non-observance of this safety instruction when the event occurs may cause

damage to the CMM or one of its components.Example: Collision of the ram with a workpiece.

32/1049

Welcome to CALYPSO

CALYPSO was developed to make the job of measuring easier for you.

To this end, CALYPSO utilizes the entire know-how pool of Carl Zeiss, the

technology leader in the world of metrology.

CALYPSO automatically recognizes the geometry features that you probe

and generates probing paths and strategies, retraction movements and

travel paths between the features.

In contrast to conventional software, the styli are qualified with the aid

of CNC programs. As a consequence you need only perform the first

probing of the reference sphere manually, CALYPSO will perform all of

the remaining steps for you.

In CALYPSO, you enter the measurement parameters in accordance with

a predefined structure, which means that nothing can be inadvertently

omitted. You will find, for example, that the parameters in the input me-

nus offer you default values. There are only a few items that call for man-

ual input in CALYPSO, and they are highlighted to draw your attention

to them right away. Logical sequences, indicators, prompts for confirma-

tion, and plausibility checks matching the individual characteristics are all

in place to make sure that you omit nothing and to make measuring as

straightforward as possible.

CALYPSO offers you a clear view of the workpiece at all times. The CAD

model is right in front of you on the screen and you can follow every detail

as measurement proceeds. Of course, you also have the option of directly

importing CAD data so that you can quickly generate error-free meas-

urement programs of your own.

You can be sure that you'll have the results of measurement without de-

lay, and afterwards you can still depend on CALYPSO to help. You can

customize measurement logs to suit your needs and preferences,for ex-

ample you can assign colors to tolerance overshoots or select full-graphics

display modes for the results.

If you want to import the results into other mainstream Windows appli-

cations, CALYPSO can export the result files, so you can present the dataas graphic or in table form, or in presentation programs whatever you

want.

1 Wait for the Windows desktop to appear and double-click the Ca-

lypsoicon.

Select StartProgramsZeissCALYPSO 5.6CALYPSO

5.6.

The Log Inwindow opens and you must identify yourself by entering

the user name and the password.

Exceptions:

If System login (LDAP)is activated in the Usernotebook in the

system settings,

CALYPSO sends, via the IP address set, user name and password to

the LDAP server, which will compare this data to the data stored in

the server. If the data corresponds to each other, CALYPSO is started.

However, the prerequisite is that the users are defined with the same

user name and password (pay attention to upper and lower case!),

not only in the system used by the LDAP directory (e.g. the Microsoft

Active Directory) but also in the CALYPSO user management.

If Automatic loginis activated in the Usernotebook in the system

settings, CALYPSO starts automatically without login.

Login in the CALYPSO window

1 Select your user name from the User Namelist.

Note: If you click Memos, you find information left for you by the

operator on the previous shift.

2 Type in your password and click OK.

When you log in for the first time, CALYPSO prompts you to confirm

your password:

Measurement plan This is where you quickly find the important dialogs for pre-

paring the measurement plan.

Characteristics This is where you define the characteristics in the order in

which they are carried out in the CNC run, and where you

edit them.

Features This is where you create and edit lists of the features.

CAD window

The CAD window contains a three-dimensional model of the work-

piece and each feature. The model is permanently updated when you

define new features or edit existing ones.

Note: The view requires a certain period of time to create itself. If you

do not require the display of the model in the CAD window, select

CADViewHide CAD View.

CAD icons

The icons allow you to define features in the CAD window and towork on their representation.

Operating CALYPSO

You can work with CALYPSO the same way as with many Window soft-

ware packages: using the keyboard and mouse. You can use a mouse

with 2 or 3 buttons and a mouse with a scroll wheel. You can also use

the scroll wheel of the mouse to scroll lists up and down.

The table shows which key combinations of a two-button mouse corre-

spond to the keys of the three-button mouse.

Two-button

mouse

Three-button mouse

left button corresponds to left button

right button corresponds to middle button

Ctrl + right button corresponds to right button

Alt + right button corresponds to Alt + right button

NOTICE

The descriptions in this document are based on a two-button mouse.

For convenient rotation and displacement of three-dimensional objects in

the CAD window, you can also use a 3D mouse which is also called space

mouse.

For example, the SpaceNavigator by 3DConnexion has been tested and

released in combination with CALYPSO.

NOTICE

Note that the 3D mouse cannot be used insteadof the normal mouse

but must be connected in addition.

For further information, please refer to the operating instructions of the

corresponding 3D mouse.

CALYPSO offers shortcuts [19]that enable you to call functions

quickly.

If you are unwilling or unable to use the keyboard, you can also make

entries using the mouse [110].

The context menu [110]is available in lists and in the CAD window

in addition to the menu items in the main menu and submenus.

If you want to switch between several open measurement plans, use

In the lists of features and characteristics, you can open the definition

template for each item which defines the element. You can open addi-

tional windows in the definition template.By selecting another element in the list, the open windows are updated.

It is not necessary to close the windows and to open them again for the

other element.

You can open the strategy window for a feature, for example,and then

view and edit the strategy for any other feature desired without having

to close the strategy window prior to this.

NOTICE

All changes made in the open windows are accepted and saved auto-

matically.

Using shortcuts

If a shortcut is available for a menu item, it is shown next to the menu

item. You can use the following shortcuts:

Using context menus

CALYPSO has context menus that change depending on where you are

in the software.

Calling a context menu

1 Click with the right mouse button.

Note: Sometimes, the context menus offer commands that are

available nowhere else.

In the context menu of a feature, use the Detailssubmenu to open theClearance Data, Evaluation (Feature)and Strategywindows.

Thus you edit a feature without opening the feature beforehand.
