DMIS Language Syntax
DMIS is a programming language that allows programs to be read and modified by programmers. These programs are stand alone and should contain everything that would allow a programmer to execute the program.
DMIS dictates that each measurement feature be defined by the nominal parameters. These are derived from the blueprint or extracted from the CAD model.
Everything in DMIS must be defined such as sensors, datums, etc…
DMIS requires that all measurements are of a feature type and that these features must be defined before being measured or constructed. Before you can measure a feature you must first define the feature nominal parameters. For instance, in you want to measure a circle, you must first define the nominal position, direction and size and give it a name you will use when you issue a command to measure the feature.
