ABSTRACT:
A computer-based method for programming measuring equipment offline is provided. The method includes the steps of: setting a format for all output measuring dimensions of a product; receiving nominal scales and tolerances corresponding to the measuring dimensions; importing the nominal scales and tolerances to the output measuring dimensions of the product; setting conversion relations between the output measuring dimensions of the product and codes of measurement software; converting the output measuring dimensions into codes of the measurement software in a client (50) connected to the measuring equipment; creating an element file in a computer (30); and loading codes of the output measuring dimensions into the element file. A related system is also provided.
