    Syntax

    tolSet = addSurfaceConicConstantTolerance(tolSet,value)
    tolSet = addSurfaceConicConstantTolerance(tolSet,value,TargetIndex=targetIdx)

    Description

    Add-On Required: This feature requires the Optical Design and Simulation Library for Image Processing Toolbox add-on.

    tolSet = addSurfaceConicConstantTolerance(tolSet,value) adds a tolerance for the conic constant to the tolerance set tolSet. The tolerance applies to all top-level surfaces. The tolerance set, tolSet, is an opticalToleranceSet object. This function adds a SurfaceConicConstantTolerance object to the Tolerances property of tolSet and appends the details of the tolerance to the ToleranceTable property of tolSet.

    tolSet = addSurfaceConicConstantTolerance(tolSet,value,TargetIndex=targetIdx) applies the tolerance to only the surfaces specified by targetIdx.

    This example uses:

    Open Live Script

    Import an optical system into the workspace.

    opsys = zmximport("PhotographicLens.zmx");

    Create an empty optical tolerance set.

    tolSet = opticalToleranceSet;

    Add tolerances to the tolerance set.

    tolSet = addSurfaceRadiusTolerance(tolSet,0.05);
tolSet = addSurfaceConicConstantTolerance(tolSet,[-0.01 0.01],TargetIndex=2);
tolSet = addSurfacePositionTolerance(tolSet,PositionX=0.1);
tolSet = addSurfaceTiltTolerance(tolSet,TiltX=[-0.5 0.5],TargetIndex=3);
tolSet = addSurfaceAsphericTolerance(tolSet,0.05,4);
tolSet = addComponentPositionTolerance(tolSet,PositionX=0.1);
tolSet = addComponentTiltTolerance(tolSet,TiltY=[-0.2 0.2],TargetIndex=2:8);
tolSet = addComponentMaterialTolerance(tolSet,Nd=0.05,TargetIndex=2:8);

    Inspect the tolerance set.

    Input Arguments

    collapse all

    Tolerance set to which to add the tolerance, specified as an opticalToleranceSet object.

    Tolerance value, specified as a numeric scalar or a 1-by-2 numeric vector of the form [min max].

    • Scalar — Specifies a percentage tolerance relative to the nominal value. Percentage tolerances have no effect when the nominal value is zero.

    • 1-by-2 vector — Specifies an offset tolerance range [min max] relative to the nominal value.

    Data Types: single | double | int8 | int16 | int32 | int64 | uint8 | uint16 | uint32 | uint64

    Surface indices to target, specified as a vector of positive integers. By default, the tolerance applies to all top-level surfaces. This function does not support tolerancing for surfaces of nested components.

    Data Types: single | double | int8 | int16 | int32 | int64 | uint8 | uint16 | uint32 | uint64

    Output Arguments

    Updated tolerance set, returned as an opticalToleranceSet object with the surface conic constant tolerance appended. This function adds a SurfaceConicConstantTolerance object to the Tolerances property of tolSet and appends the details of the tolerance to the ToleranceTable property of tolSet.
