WARNING! This probe has not been qualified for this probe set.

The probe you are about to used has not been qualified. If you are using this probe in combination with other probes to collect data your results may be offset by an undetermined amount.

A reminder that the use of an unqualified reference probe during data collection may result in the creation of features that do not register with previously collected data.

WARNING! The reference probe was not qualified during this session. The current coordinate system MAY BE DIFFERENT than the coordinate system in use during the reference probe qualification. We recommend that you re-qualify the reference probe again.

You are about to use a reference probe that has not been qualified. If you are using this probe in combination with other probes to collect data your results may be offset by an undetermined amount.

Warning! Using the POINT method for determining the origin or the Horizontal Axis with a ball probe will lead to an erroneous custom datum since points are not compensated.

Compensation is turned off during datum creation. Any data collected with a point probe is at ball center. This may adversely affect the position and alignment of these datum features.

WARNING!! Your license key will expire on [specified day]. Please call Revware, Inc to renew your key.

The temporary registration for your copy of RevWorks is about to expire. If you have a hardware security key, attaché it to you computer’s parallel port when using RevWorks. If you need to acquire a permanent license, contact Revware Sales.
