New December 2023: Aftermarket Sales is to add a calibration part number for any machines including ViScan, LineScan, and/or DotScan.  These P/N can be found in the AMS Part Number document under the Cal TAB.  This is critical to 1) Cover the cost of doing this additional verification while onsite for the machine calibration & 2) Assure Service sends a Technician trained on the sensor. This identical process holds true for Rotary Tables and also ROTOS.

"Secondary Sensor" is a P/N unchanged for many years. This is only to be used for machines having both and active VAST sensor and also an RDS/VAST-xxt.  For $0 and no additional P/N, our Technician will run the full calibration with the VAST in the machine.  He/She will then hand swap the RDS/VAST-xxt and simply measure the reference sphere to verify the VAST-xxt is measuring accurately.  He/She will NOT proceed to re-measure the gauge blocks for volumetric accuracy because this was already done with the VAST and the machine has not changed.  If the customer insists we re-measure the gauge blocks, then we use this P/N and they pay the extra $ (which is over $1000).
