Abstract

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) DMIS interpreter is a software system that reads control code programs in the DMIS language (described below in Section 1.2), produces calls to a set of canonical commands for coordinate measuring machines, digests the results of taking measurements, and produces a file describing measured features and tolerances. The canonical command calls made by the interpreter can be used to drive a coordinate measuring machine. This report describes Version 2 of the DMIS interpreter (in this report ¿the interpreter¿).
