Installation software

UCCassist-2

The SPA3-2 is installed using the Renishaw UCCassist-2 program as part of the commissioning and maintenance process of a UCC controlled CMM.

Capabilities of the software include:

  • Controller configuration for individual machine hardware
  • Machine system diagnostics
  • Operation with Renishaw's machine checking gauge, enabling the user to complete frequent volumetric accuracy tests to ensure the CMM is running within the specified operational tolerances
  • Automated CMM error mapping routines, when used in conjunction with the Renishaw ML10, XM600 or XL80 laser systems
  • Automated firmware update for all UCC and SPA products

CAUTION: Do not power down the SPA3-2 whilst parameters or firmware are being updated. This may cause an error requiring the unit to be returned to Renishaw.

Software installation

The new features of SPA3-2 are supported in UCCsuite 5.1 and later. The software can be obtained online at www.renishaw.com/cmmsupport or from your local Renishaw supplier. Follow the prompts to install the UCCserver software.

WARNING: The SPA3-2 must only be commissioned through Renishaw software. Failure to do so may result in unexpected machine movement.
